MBS Universal BACnet Routers connect networks with different BACnet network technology, such as BACnet/IP, BACnet Ethernet and BACnet MS/TP (BACnet - Building Automation and Control Networks). A typical area of application is the field of technical building service equipment. In the process, building control systems, DDC stations, field devices and room controllers, for instance, communicate via BACnet. BACnet objects can thus be transferred between different types of BACnet networks.

MBS Universal BACnet Router (UBR)


MBS UBR type overview

Type Ethernet ports MS/TP (RS485)

BACnet Network Security

UBR-01 | Mk II 1 x

UBR-02 2 x x

Both MBS Universal BACnet Routers make it possible to implement BACnet network topologies ISO 8802-2 (BACnet/Ethernet), BACnet/IP and MS/TP (RS485-based serial BACnet networks). They are compatible with the MS/TP slave proxy functions "Auto-Slave Discovery" and "Manual-Slave-Proxy". That way, slave devices can be detected using Who-Is/I Am telegrams on the network.

You use the integrated web interface to configure the routers, save the configuration and call up documentation.

The UBR-01 | Mk II is equipped with an Ethernet port and is used as the base device.

The UBR-02 has two Ethernet ports for connecting two separate IP ranges and two RS485 ports for the BACnet MS/TP bus. The UBR-02 also supports the tunnelling protocol of the BACnet NetworkSecurity layer.

Routing options

Connecting an MS/TP to a BACnet IP network

Routing encrypted packages between BACnet networks (UBR-02)

Establishing an encrypted communication link between two BACnet networks in conjunction with a second UBR-02


Connecting two IP networks (UBR-02)

Standalone BBMD (BACnet Broadcast Management Device)

The routers can function as BBMDs in BACnet networks. In the process the BBMD functionality is used to transport broadcast messages via network boundaries (IP switches) and to provide availability in the other subnetwork. Without the use of BBMDs broadcast messages are not be transmitted via an IP router. The connection of a foreign device (FD) is supported in BBMD mode.

Further characteristics of the MBS Universal BACnet Routers

BACnet Protocol Revision

Conformity with BACnet version 1 protocol revision 14

Diagnosis

Comprehensive diagnostics options to make a start-up easier and to monitor the function in operation

FD – foreign device

Registration of the router as a foreign device when there is a BBMD in the network.As a result, the router becomes part of the BACnet/IP network and receives broadcast messages from other subnetworks.

BBMD IP filter

The BBMD-IP filter function makes it possible to control from which devices broadcasts are forwarded using the BBMD functionality from the IP subnet. Individual devices can be excluded using the filters to prevent broadcasts from these devices being transported over the boundaries of the IP subnet.

BACnet MS/TP

The routers operate as masters on the MS/TP bus. Compatible with the following speeds: 9600 baud, 19200 baud, 38400 baud, 57600 baud, 76800 baud, 115200 baud.

The bus terminating resistor and the network bias resistors are activated by the DIP switch. The RS485 interface (BACnetMS/TP) is potential-free.


Slave proxy

Configuring the router as "slave proxy": Response on behalf of connected MS/TP slave devices to "who is" enquiries with an "I am" message.

The slave proxy option makes it possible for other BACnet devices to find the connected MS/TP slave devices on the network without the slave addresses in each device to be configured individually. The routers can be configured both manually and automatically.

4Start-up and operation

To put the MBS UBR into operation and configure it, you need the following hardware and software:

Power unit for the UBR

• Computer

• Installed web browser

• Installed PDF reader

• Network cable

The MBS UBR provides an integrated web server for configuration. Chapter 4.2.1 describes the steps required to access the web server.

The user handbook is also available as a PDF file in the Help directory on the web server. The handbook can be displayed and printed out as necessary with a PDF reader.

Hardware installation

Assembly

The router has a mount at the rear for easy installation on top of hat rails as per EN 60715. Install the router in the electrical cabinet and make sure that there is sufficient ventilation to ensure the specified temperature range (0…45 °C).

Electrical installation

Connect the MBS UBR to the green, two-pole port with a power supply as per the technical specifications. An international power supply is optionally available if required.


Ethernet network installation

Connect the Ethernet network cable (RJ-45 port) to the MBS UBR. Use CAT5 UTP or STP cables (or equivalent). Avoid laying cables parallel to power lines, e.g. to motors, frequency converters etc.

MS/TP network installation

Connect the MS/TP or RS485 network to the MS/TP port (orange). Adhere to the instructions for connecting MS/TP or RS485 networks as per ASHRAE 135-2016 chapter 9.2 (BACnet standard). Use the DIP switches to activate the network bias and the terminating resistor.

Configuring the router using the web interface

Opening the web interface

The router has an integrated web server for configuration. You use the web interface to configure the IP, BACnet and other settings, and you save the changes with [Save]. Following changes to the network configuration it is sometimes necessary to restart the router.

With the factory settings the web server is accessible at the following IP address:

• IP address: 169.254.0.1

• Network mask: 255.255.0.0

Connect the MBS UBR to your PC with the network cable for configuration. Enter the IP address of the UBR web server in a web browser: http:// 169.254.0.1.

Note:

Note that your computer's LAN connection has to be set appropriately. Have the IP address, for example, set automatically with the DHCP server activated. For a manual setting define the IP address as 169.254.0.2, for example. The network mask remains at 255.255.0.0.


Attention:

The guarantee will become null and void if the MBS UBR is connected to an unsuitable power supply or the casing is opened. There are no controls inside the casing. Do not establish a connection with the BACnet network before the MBS UBR has been fully configured.

Logging on to the web server

Enter the following user name and password (preconfigured administrator access) to sign in to the web server:

• Username: admin

• Password: admin

You can change the access data using the configuration pages.


Web server language

The router provides the website in both German and English. You switch the language in the web interface using the respective flag symbols at the top right.

The web interface contains the following menu areas for configuration of the router:

• GENERAL

• BACNET

• DIAGNOSIS

• HELP

Each menu area includes submenus in the left-hand column which you use to call up the individual configuration pages/views.

"General" area

General > overview

After logging in, the router loads an overview page for the device. You can use [Refresh] to refresh the displayed information.


General > information

Information on the device name, the installation location, a description and contact details can be stored in the router. This information is used in order to identify the respective router better in the network. Edit the input fields for this purpose.

An image can be stored for each contact as required (e.g. photo, company logo etc.). To add a new image or replace an existing image, click on the placeholder with the bold border or on the existing image. The company logo dialogue opens. This is where you select the desired image or delete an existing image.


If the checkbox [Show on login] is activated, the information which has been entered here is displayed on the router's login page and on the configuration page General > Overview.

Note:

Note that broadcast messages are blocked when multiple IP subnetworks are connected to IP routers. In such a constellation the use of a BBMD device within the subnetwork is recommended.

Network name:The host name as well as two name servers can be stated here for name resolution.


Services:You can use the drop-down list [Limit services to] on the UBR-02 to limit the services to one of the LAN interfaces.

You use the drop-down list [Webserver access] to select protocols with which the router is accessible in the network:

• Port 80 is active

• Port 443 is active

• Ports 80 and 443 are active.

Communication via port 80 uses the unencrypted HTTP protocol. Communication via port 443 used the encrypted HTTPS protocol. You use the checkbox "ssh access" to activate or deactivate ssh access.

General > system time

The router has an integrated clock for the system time. The time can be set manually and also via an NTP sever or BACnet time synchronisation.


Manual time setting:This is where you make the manual time setting using the input fields. Select [Refresh] to apply the local time from your PC to the input fields for the time setting and [Zeit setzen] to save the set time on the router.

NTP time synchronization:When using NTP time synchronization, the router takes its time from the specified NTP server.

Evaluating BACnet time synchronization:The router listens for and evaluates sent BACnet messages for time synchronization. Configure the time zone for the router and the format for the time and date.

General > User

The router has the following three preconfigured users:

• guest

• user

• admin


Each user has certain access authorisations. The names and the authorisations of the three users are set permanently and they cannot be changed by the user.

Changes to the configuration, an import of a data backup or adjustment of the settings require the device to be restarted.

Click on [Restart].

Before restarting, the router checks the configuration. If it is faulty, a message is displayed accordingly and you have the option of reworking the configuration. New configurations are only adopted by the router after the restart.

Click on [Next] or the [Restart device] tab.


The router has two modes for restarting:

• A restart of the communication software (standard)

• Additional restart of the hardware and the operating system

The advanced restart is the equivalent of a restart when the router is switched off and back on again

Click on [Restart] again and confirm the information dialogues.


"BACNET" area

BACnet > Settings

On this configuration page you set the following settings, for instance: Router mode, password for DCC/RD and network security (DDC/RD - device communication control/reinitialize device)

Router mode:The MBS UBR routers can communicate both via Ethernet (BACnet IP) and via a two-wire RS485 connection (BACnet MS/TP). Whereas the UBR-01 router has one Ethernet and one RS485 (MS/TP) interface, the UBR-02 has two of each of these interfaces.

The router mode drop-down list is used to set the router's operating mode:

• BACnet IP only: BACnet IP communication The data link for BACnet IP is preset.

• BACnet MS/TP only: BACnet MS/TP communication only A data link for BACnet MS/TP is preset.

• BACnet IP and MS/TP: BACnet IP + BACnet MS/TP communication Both a data link for BACnet IP and a data link for BACnet MS/TP are preset.

• "Non default operation": The user can freely configure the number and type of data links.


DCC/RD password:Sets the password for the BACnet services device communication control and reinitialize device. Please note that the password is case sensitive. The maximum length is 50 characters.

Network security (FOR UBR-02 ONLY):Activate the checkbox to prepare the router for secure communication. Two further checkboxes for BACnet network security settings are displayed. An additional submenu appears on the left for the respective data link for setting the security for the respective data link (network security policy).

Tunneling of unsecured PDUs:Activates or deactivates tunnelling

Disable non-trusted routing:If the checkbox is activated, telegrams from potentially unsafe sources are rejected and discarded.

Datalinks:The "Datalinks" table provides an overview of the configured data links with link types IP and MS/TP. If you select "Non default operation" mode from the drop-down router mode list, you can add further data link types to the table, e.g. Ethernet.

To adjust the respective data link, click on the editing button on the right.

A) Router mode = BACnet IP and/or MS/TP, link type = ip a) IP mode = normal

For the ip link type in the "Datalinks" table on configuration page BACnet > Settings, after clicking on the editing button the following dialogue opens and expands in accordance with the IP mode:


Network number:Defines the network number of the BACnet network for the datalink. The value is in a range from 1 to 65,534.

Note:

The network numbers of the configured datalinks must be unique!

Network security policy:Defines the security setting for the communication link. If two devices are to be used to create a tunnel, identical settings must be made on both for "network security policy". The network codes must always be fully entered irrespective of the selected network security policy.

Note:

The "Network security policy" drop-down list is only visible when the "Network Security" checkbox has been activated on the configuration page BACnet > Settings.


The security setting for a communication link specifies the minimum required security for a communication:

• Plain-Non-Trusted Unencrypted telegrams from a potentially unsafe source are accepted and routed – as long as the checkbox "Disable non trusted routing" is not checked.

• Plain-Trusted Unencrypted telegrams from a network physically secured against external access are accepted and routed.

• Signed-Trusted Signed telegrams are accepted. Non-signed or incorrectly signed telegrams are rejected without an error message.

• Encrypted-Trusted Only encrypted telegrams are accepted. All other telegrams are either discarded or acknowledged with a fault message as applicable. A prerequisite for this is the "do not hide" option.

LAN name :Defines the interface of the data link (LAN2 on UBR-02 only).

• LAN1

• LAN2

UDP port:Defines the UDP port of the BACnet/IP network as a decimal figure. The default value is 47808 ("0xBAC0" - hexadecimal).

IP mode:Defines the router's IP mode for this datalink.

• Normal Standard operating mode for a BACnet IP datalink

• BBMD operating mode as "BACnet Broadcast Management Device":

• FD Operating mode as foreign device


b) IP mode = BBMDThe router provides BBMD functionality for its own IP subnet and work and allows logins of external FD or BBMD devices.

Direct broadcasts to own ip network (one hop):

This option is used to enable the use of "OneHop" mode for BBMD. This mode is seldom used in networks and should only be set if the network planner explicitly provides for this.

Broadcast distribution table:The table lists all BBMDs which are queried in a broadcast in addition to the devices in the particular network in order to reach the devices from other networks. You use [Add] to generate a new list entry.


IP filter:The following three filter settings are available from the drop-down list:

• No active Filter – All devices are queried.

• White Filter – Only devices in the network with these IP addresses are queried.

• Black Filter – Devices other than those with these IP addresses are queried.

When selecting white or black filters you generate a list of IP addresses which serves as the basis for filtering. To do so, click on [Add], define the IP address in the BBMD filter dialogue and confirm with [OK].

c) IP Mode = Foreign deviceThe router is set as a foreign device subscriber to the BACnet network.

IP address BBMD server:The IP address under of the BBMD which is to be used by the UBR for logging in as a foreign device.

UDP port BBMD server:


You define the UDP port of the BBMD server as a decimal number. The default value is 47808 dec. (0xBAC0 hex.).

Reregister interval:Time in seconds after which the router must newly register with the BBMD.

B) Router mode = BACnet IP and/or MS/TP , link type = mstpFor the mstp link type in the "Datalinks" table on configuration page BACnet > Settings, after clicking on the editing button the following dialogue opens:


Network security policy:Defines the security setting for the communication link.

MAC address:Defines the BACnet MAC address of the router which operates as MS/TP master node. Possible values are in a range from 0 to 127, the default value is 0. The MAC address must be unique within the MS/TP network although it can be repeated in other MS/TP subnetworks of the overall BACnet network.


Serial interface:Defines the interface of the datalink. In the case of UBR-02 two RS485 interfaces are available.

• COM1

• COM3

Baud rate:Speed of the MS/TP network suitable for the other MS/TP components in use. The value is stated in bit/s, possible values are: 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, 76800 and 115200 baud. The default value is 38400 baud.

Max. master:The property max. master defines the highest MAC address for master notes in the MS/TP subnetwork. The possible value range is between 0 and 127, the default value is 127. If this value is not writeable via BACnet services, it must be 127.

Max. info frames:Defines the maximum number of telegrams that a master node may send before the token has to be forwarded. The possible value range is between 1 and 127, the default value is 1. Default value 1 causes low level latency. For a higher data throughput a much higher number is often useful, e.g. 20 for the UBR.

Token timeout:Defines the maximum duration without a "data available" or "receive error" event which a node must wait for a remote node so that it can use a token or answers a "poll for master" request. The possible value range is between 20 and 100 milliseconds, the default value is 20 milliseconds.

Token timeout:Defines the maximum duration without a "data available" or "receive error" event which a node must wait for a station so that it can answer a confirmed request. The possible value range is between 200 and 300 milliseconds, the default value is 250 milliseconds.

Enable slave proxy operation:The router can be configured as slave proxy. In the process the UBRs answer "who is" requests with an "I am" message on behalf of connected MSTP slave devices.


The slave proxy option makes it possible for other BACnet devices to find the connected MS/TP slave devices on the network without the slave addresses in each device to be configured individually.

B) Router mode = non-default operationAfter selecting "Non default operation" mode in the drop-down router mode list on the configuration page BACnet > Settings, you can use [Add] in the BACnet Datalink dialogue to define the following link types freely:

• IP

• MS/TP

• Ethernet

The dialogues for IP and MS/TP have already been described above. The link type displayed in the drop-down list is provided for future upgrades.

The following dialogue is provided for the link type Ethernet:

Link type = Ethernet



Network security policy:Defines the security setting for the communication link.

LAN name:Defines the interface of the datalink. In the case of UBR-02 two ethernet interfaces are available.

• LAN1

• LAN2

Note:

After defining new link types the router has to be restarted so that the new configuration takes effect. To do so, click on the [Restart required] button at the top.

BACnet > device object

Device instance:Defines the device instance number of the router which has to be unique within the overall BACnet network. The value range of this property is between 0 and 4,194,302.


Device name:Defines the device name of the router which has to be unique within the overall BACnet network.

Description:Defines the BACnet description – a free descriptive text – of the router.

Location:Defines the BACnet location – a free text for the installation location – of the router.

Vendor identifier:Manufacturer ID for unique identification of the device manufacturer

Vendor name:Manufacturer name as unique designation of the device manufacturer

Model name:Model description of the router.

Firmware revision:Firmware version of the router software

APDU max length accepted:Maximum telegram size in bytes The following values are possible: 50, 206, 480, 1024 and 1476 bytes.

ADPU timeout:This value in milliseconds defines the period of time after which a telegram that requires confirmation is deemed to have failed in the absence of confirmation. The default value is 3000 ms.

APDU retries:This value defines how often a failed telegram is to be repeated. The default value is 5.

APDU segmentation supported:Possible values: 0-both, 1-transmit, 2-receive, 3-no

APDU max segments accepted:Defines how many segments are accepted as a maximum.


APDU segment timeout:This value in milliseconds defines the period of time after which a segmented telegram that requires confirmation is deemed to have failed in the absence of segment confirmation. The default value is 2000 milliseconds.

BACnet > Network Security (for UBR-02 ONLY)

The encrypted tunnel between two UBR-02 routers can be activated via submenu item "Network Security". The UBR-02 supports security proxy/tunnelling here.

Note:

The "Network security" submenu is only visible when the "Network Security" checkbox has been activated on the configuration page BACnet > Settings.

Base-DeviceSecurity-Policy:Currently the router is only compatible with tunnelling which requires the base device security policy "plain".

Security time window:Difference in seconds for the timestamp validity in the frames for badly synchronised clocks in the device (10-300).

Package-record-time:Time in milliseconds in which a frame with the same ID is tolerated (100-3000)


Security-PDU-timeout:Time in milliseconds in which a secure request frame must be answered (< APDU timeout)

Update-keyset-timeout:Time in milliseconds in which a keyset must be transferred from the key server (> APDU timeout)

Do-not-hide:The checkbox controls the reaction of the router to queries which are not successful due to security restrictions. Do-not-hide: The router responds with fault messages to make diagnostics easier. If this option is not set, the router does not respond.

Supported_Security_Algorithms:Encryption methods provided by the default:

• MD5

• SHA256

• MD5 + SHA256


Keysets:Two keysets are always to be configured with the revisions 1+2. You use the [+] button to add a new keyset. You use the editing button to edit or delete an existing keyset.

If keysets have a validity period which expires, subsequent key sets must overlap in time by at least the number of "Security-Time-Window" seconds. If the validity areas of the defined keysets overlap, the highest one in the list is used. The key server functionality is not currently supported.

Revision:Sequential number for the keyset

Activation:Start of the validity period of the set

Expiration:End of the validity period of the set

General-Network-Access-Key:


The BACnet key is only generated if all three keys are specified. The selection of the key used for the period then depends on the selected encryption method.

You use the editing button at the bottom edge of the dialogue to edit the file bacrouter.cfg in a text editor.

On completion, save the settings for BACnet network security with [Save].

"Diagnostics" area

The configuration pages of the diagnostics area help with the following tasks:

Start-up of the router in the BACnet network, troubleshooting for BACnet communication and optimisation of BACnet communication.

Diagnosis > statistics routing

The number of routed packages is specified for the respective package types. You use [Reset] to reset the counters in the "seit dem letzten Reset" column. In the evaluation the statistical values, both since the last reset and also since the router was started, can be read out.


Evaluation types:

• Routing statistic Overall information of the routed packets

• NPDU type counts Number broken down according to NPDU type

• APDU type counts Number broken down according to APDU type

• Confirmed service counts Number of confirmed services broken down according to service

• Unconfirmed service counts Number of unconfirmed services broken down according to service

• Object type counts Number broken down according to object types

Diagnosis > statistics datalink


The router has counters for each datalink for various telegram types; it collects information about the number of frames and represents them in two columns within the table:

• seit Router Start column Display of the number of telegrams since the router was started Since last reset column Display of the number of telegrams since the counter was reset. The counter can be reset at any time to start a new count.

You use [Refresh] to reset the "seit letztem Refresh" counter.

Diagnosis > MS/TP devices

On this configuration page the router provides a list of devices which have been identified on the MS/TP bus. For each device found, the router attempts to determine the following information:

• Network number The network number of the BACnet network

• MS/TP MAC address BACnet MAC address of the respective MS/TP bus participant

• System status System status of the respective MS/TP bus participant

• Device instance BACnet device instance

• Device name BACnet device name

• Description BACnet description of the MS/TP bus subscriber


• Location Installation location of the MS/TP bus subscriber

• Vendor model Vendor ID and model name of the respective MS/TP bus participant

• Max APDU size Max APDU size that the subscriber can process

• Max master Indication for max master of the respective MS/TP bus subscriber

• Max info frames Indication of the max info frames of the respective MS/TP bus subscriber

• Protocol revision Indication of the implemented BACnet protocol revision of the respective MS/TP bus subscriber

• Firmware revision Respective firmware revision

• Application version Respective application version

Note:

The provided information is data that may be useful for the start-up and diagnosis of the MS/TP bus. The information is not complete but it is useful in a first step to obtain information about the MS/TP bus. For further diagnoses we recommend the BACnet browser BACeye.

Diagnosis – packet logging

The router can record and display a limited number of BACnet packets.

You use [Start] to start the recording. One packet is represented per table row. You double-click in a line of the table to open a dialogue with detailed information.


Note:

The analysis of the recorded packages can help with the analysis of communication problems between devices. The router merely provides the function for presentation of the data. You should have knowledge of the BACnet protocol for evaluation and analysis purposes.


"Help" area

The help page can be used to view the manufacturer's contact information, the online help, the BACnet PICS of the UBR-01 | Mk II and UBR-02 router, and system data.

Help > Info about


Help > User handbook

The user handbook is displayed as a PDF file in a PDF reader. You can search for terms in it, for instance.

Help > BACnet PICS

The displayed PDF document describes the BACnet functionality implemented on the MBS Universal BACnet Router UBR-01|Mk II and UBR-02.


Help > device info (System)

The view shows values for a series of the router's parameters.

Help > Log files (System)

The view shows log files relating to the internal statuses which the router has recorded.


Help > Ping (System)

The router can send a ping command as a subscriber to an IP network. In possible contrast to the user's PC, the router is part of the network and can ping other participants. I.e. it is not the user's PC which is active but rather the router itself. The command events are shown on the router's ping page.

Help > Traceroute (System)

Traceroute determines the routers via which IP data packages go to the router.


Help > Process Information (System)

Overview of the processes started on the router

Exiting the web interface
