Datasheet #89015518

The LIP-ME201C, LIP-ME202C, and LIP-ME204C BACnet/‌IP Routers connect

BACnet MS/‌TP channels to a BACnet/‌IP network. The BACnet routers are compli‑
L‑WEB

ant with the standards ASHRAE 135‑2012 and ISO 16484‑5:2012. The routers can
be configured to act as a BACnet Broadcast Management Device (BBMD). The L-IP
BACnet/‌IP Routers also provide Foreign Device support.
The BACnet router can act as a BACnet Time Master and as a BACnet MS/‌TP Slave
Proxy. Extended features like the optional write protection of the BDT, a BACnet/‌IP
Access Control List (ACL), and a simple communications test for BBMD help to
L‑ROC

locate issues on the network. The BACnet router also features remote MS/‌TP data
packet capturing. BACnet MS/‌TP data packets are captured by the device and
can be analyzed using Wireshark (free Protocol Analyzer, www.wireshark.org).
Wireshark can either connect to the L-IP online or the capture file is loaded from
the L-IPs web server and analyzed offline in Wireshark.
The complete device configuration of the BACnet router is done via the built-in
L‑INX

web server, optionally also secured via HTTPS protocol. All system registers are
available as OPC XML‑DA and OPC UA data points.
The BACnet router is BTL tested and WSPcert certified as BACnet Application
Specific Controller (B-ASC).
Each L-IP BACnet/‌IP Router is equipped with two Ethernet ports. It can either be
L‑IOB

configured to use the internal switch to interconnect the two ports or every port is
configured to work in a separate IP network.
When the Ethernet ports are configured for two separate IP networks, one port
OPC
can be connected for instance to a WAN (Wide Area Network) with enabled net‑
BACnet OPC UA WLAN
XML-DA work security (HTTPS) while the second port can be configured to be connected
Gateways

to an insecure network (LAN) where the standard building automation protocols

like BACnet/‌IP, LON/‌IP, or Modbus TCP are present. These devices also feature fire‑
SNMP BACnet
wall functionality of course to isolate particular protocols or services between the
ports.

built, which reduces costs for network installation. The IP switch also allows the
setup of a redundant Ethernet installation (ring topology), which increases reli‑
ability. The redundant Ethernet topology is enabled by the Rapid Spanning Tree
Protocol (RSTP), which is supported by most managed switches.
