BACnet Driver on the PXC Series Platform Functionality Functionality The BACnet Driver provides communication between the APOGEE® Automation System and the BACnet system. The BACnet Driver operates in two modes: BACnet MS/TP mode or BACnet/IP mode. Both modes are exclusive and cannot be used together at the same time. The BACnet Driver can be loaded into PXC Modular or PXC-36 hardware. The driver is a microprocessor-based, multi-tasking platform designed for multi-system communication and control.
