Hi,

I use Yabe simulater, the subscriveCOV run OK. Maybe you can try it!

Hi Nuc_sun,

have you find the answer?

I think the topic title may make people confused. You can run BACnet4J on Linux physical machine, it runs OK! The problem you encountered is BACnet4J run on Linux in virtual machine. The network settings of the virtual machine is not suitable for BACnet4J, I think!

My Problem is fixed with bacnet4j 5 thank you.

It is possible again to add proprietary values:

final ObjectPropertyTypeDefinition o = new ObjectPropertyTypeDefinition( ObjectType.lifeSafetyZone, true, new PropertyTypeDefinition( PropertyIdentifier.forId(MY_SPECIAL_VALUE), CharacterString.class, true)); ObjectProperties.getObjectPropertyTypeDefinitions(ObjectType.lifeSafetyPoint).add(o); final ObjectPropertyTypeDefinition o2 = new ObjectPropertyTypeDefinition( ObjectType.lifeSafetyPoint, true, new PropertyTypeDefinition( PropertyIdentifier.forId(MY_SPECIAL_VALUE), CharacterString.class, true)); ObjectProperties.getObjectPropertyTypeDefinitions(ObjectType.lifeSafetyPoint).add(o2);

in this example above MY_SPECIAL_VALUE is a list (SequenceOf<CharacterString>)

Any javadocs? or user manual? Already familiar with Bacnet protocol.

Hi guys, its been a while since I opened this thread. I am sorry for my late answer but I was very busy lately..
I have followed the call @terrypacker has mentioned and wanted to let you konw how I implemnted my BACnetDevice class which extends from the RemoteDevice back then. I am sure there is a better way but for me it is working. I guess that there are not many cases in which someone really needs to "extend" from Remotedevice.
But...
I'll have a closer look in the next weeks cause I'll do a littlebit refactoring in my code, if I can get a better solution I'll post the progress here. Just in case someone needs to know :)

So my current implementation:

In the constructor of my own class I am forcing to implement the missing properties.

public BACnetDevice(LocalDevice localDevice, int instanceNumber, Address address, Segmentation segmentation, int vendorIdentifier,int maxAPDULengthAccepted) { super(localDevice, instanceNumber, address); this.setDeviceProperty(PropertyIdentifier.maxApduLengthAccepted, new UnsignedInteger(maxAPDULengthAccepted)); this.setDeviceProperty(PropertyIdentifier.segmentationSupported, segmentation); this.setDeviceProperty(PropertyIdentifier.vendorIdentifier, new UnsignedInteger(vendorIdentifier)); }

By the listener I am fetching the needed properties from the existing instanz

@Override public void iAmReceived(RemoteDevice d) { BACnetDevice bacnetDevice = new BACnetDevice(localDevice, d.getInstanceNumber(), d.getAddress(), d.getSegmentationSupported(), d.getVendorIdentifier(), d.getMaxAPDULengthAccepted()); waitingRoomBacnetDevices.put(bacnetDevice.getInstanceNumber(), bacnetDevice); LOG.info("Remote device " + d.getInstanceNumber() + " registered in waiting room of LocalDevice"); }

Hmm Crickets. I moved on to the Bacnet Stack (C lang) because they have documentation and examples. Got my first WhoIS/Iam working with the BDT, defined the Device Object etc. Sorry BACnet4j didn't work out for me.

Any suggestions on this? I found out that I was using the wrong device ID, but other wise, I believe the code is correct. However, it still doesn't connect.

Hey @terrypacker,

Please help to resolve the above queries related to BACne MS/TP.

Update: if I request confirmed notifications instead of unconfirmed the simulator does include the correct address.

The question still remains, then: should bacnet4j be ignoring the address (or lack of) in unconfirmed COV notifications, or should the simulator be specifying the address in unconfirmed notifications too?
