Make the connector a BACnet Device (get a BTL listing)

Some devices can only send COV notifications to other BACnet devices. Since the Connector is not a device and does not respond to who-is messages (and does not listen on port 47808), the connector is unable to utilize COV subscriptions for these d...

Program objects (BACnet object type 16) also bought through by the connector

Log device information when the Connector receives errors from a device

Distribute-Broadcast-To-Network broadcast for Discovery Tool and Connector

When running the discovery tool from a subnet with no BBMD to query BACnet devices on a separate subnet, it seems like the auto discovery tool is seen as a ‘foreign device’, so the devices do not respond correctly. When analyzing a Wireshark trac...

Option to disable automatic connections to AF Servers

I would like the ability to disable automatic connections to specific AF Servers. Currently client applications (DataLink) are implicitly connecting to all AF Servers in the AF "KST". This results in very slow startup times for Excel. For customer...

Allow the BACnet Connector to handle responses with an LVT that does not match the request

Currently the BACnet Connector expects devices to respond with the same "Length Value, and Type" (LVT) value as the request. When this occurs the BACnet Connector cannot parse the data in the response. For example: Request from Connector, LVT=1 Re...
