Acutherm E-Series interoperable VAV diffusers BACnet points list
Updated 6 November 2026
E-Series diffusers are self-contained VAV diffusers that can run stand-alone or take commands over BACnet MS/TP. The object list has 44 objects: room, supply air and airflow readings, effective setpoint and terminal load, occupied/unoccupied/standby setpoints and flow limits, BMS overrides for occupancy, heat/cool mode, setpoint, room and supply temperature, airflow and damper position, and diagnostics.
This page lists 44 BACnet objects for the Acutherm E-Series interoperable VAV diffusers — 33 of them writable — with each object’s type, instance number, name, engineering units and access. It is re-typed from Acutherm’s own free documentation, linked below.

BMS integration notes: Acutherm E-Series interoperable VAV diffusers
Run the diffuser from the BMS by writing AV_21 iOccMode and AV_23 iTempSetpt (and AV_26 iRmTemp if the BMS supplies room temperature); read AI_0 room temperature, AI_3 effective setpoint, AI_2 airflow and AI_4 terminal load.
Minimum points to map
The short list most integrators start with — enough to run the unit from a BMS. Map more as the job needs.
| Object | Name | Why | Access |
|---|---|---|---|
| AV 21 | iOccMode | Occupancy override: 0 occupied, 1 unoccupied, 2 standby | Write |
| AV 23 | iTempSetpt | Occupied room setpoint from BMS (3276 = none) | Write |
| AI 0 | oRmTemp | Room temperature used for control | Read |
| AI 3 | oEffectStpt | Effective room setpoint | Read |
| AI 1 | oSATemp | Supply air temperature | Read |
| AI 2 | oAirFlow | Air flow rate, cfm | Read |
| AI 4 | oTmnlLoad | Terminal load: + cooling, - heating, % | Read |
Enable & remote start
The diffuser defaults to occupied mode; AV_21 iOccMode overrides it to unoccupied or standby. AV_22 iHCMode overrides the heat/cool choice (9 = invalid, ignored).
Sensors & values from the BMS
AV_26 iRmTemp, AV_27 iSATemp and AV_28 iFlowRate replace the built-in sensors; AV_29 iCO2Level feeds a CO2 value for the purge function. Write the invalid value to go back to the built-in sensor.
Network setup
- AV_14 cBaudrate selects 38400 (0, default), 9600, 19200 or 57600; cycle power after changing it.
Watch out for
- AV_25 iOverride forces the damper; return it to normal for automatic control.
Acutherm E-Series interoperable VAV diffusers BACnet objects
Type: AI, AO, AV, BI, BO, BV, MI/MO/MV (multi-state) · Access: Read read-only, Write writable, Command writable with a priority array.
Note: the source document has no read/write column, so access here is inferred from the object type (inputs read-only, values writable). Confirm on the live controller before writing.

Integration notes
- The list marks each object as input (i), configuration (c) or output (o); outputs are listed read-only and inputs/configuration writable.
- Override inputs are disabled by writing their "invalid" value (for example 3276 for iTempSetpt, 327 for iRmTemp).
- AV_16-AV_20 are factory calibration values; AI_5-AI_10 are diagnostics.
- Object names are the short names printed in brackets (for example cMaxFlow).
- This is a different object list from the Acutherm Advantage digital VAV diffuser list.
- AV_25 option 6 (damper % open) carries footnote 1 in the document, which makes it print as "61"; it applies to motorized diffusers only.
Check it against the live device. A points list tells you what the controller can expose; the unit in front of you may differ by firmware or installed options. This list is provided as-is for reference only and may contain mistakes — confirming it before you write, map or commission anything is up to you (terms). Easy BACnet scans a network for BACnet IP devices from an Android phone, reads every object on the E-Series interoperable VAV diffusers and exports what it actually has to Excel — free.

Questions about the Acutherm E-Series interoperable VAV diffusers
How many BACnet points does the Acutherm E-Series interoperable VAV diffusers have?
This list has 44 BACnet objects: 11 analog inputs, 30 analog values, 3 binary values. The exact set on a given unit depends on its firmware, installed options and configuration.
Which Acutherm E-Series interoperable VAV diffusers BACnet points are writable?
33 of the 44 objects accept a write. Points marked Command have a priority array: a write holds until it is released, so release it back to automatic when you are done. The source has no read/write column, so this is inferred from object type.
Where is the official Acutherm E-Series interoperable VAV diffusers BACnet documentation?
The source is E-Series Interoperable VAV Diffusers - BACnet Object List (Form 090.202), revision Rev 1704, published free by Acutherm at https://acutherm.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/090p202_E-Series_BACnet_Object_List.pdf.
What are the minimum BACnet points to integrate the Acutherm E-Series interoperable VAV diffusers?
Start with AV 21 iOccMode (Occupancy override: 0 occupied, 1 unoccupied, 2 standby); AV 23 iTempSetpt (Occupied room setpoint from BMS (3276 = none)); AI 0 oRmTemp (Room temperature used for control); AI 3 oEffectStpt (Effective room setpoint); AI 1 oSATemp (Supply air temperature); AI 2 oAirFlow (Air flow rate, cfm); AI 4 oTmnlLoad (Terminal load: + cooling, - heating, %).
How do I enable BMS control of the Acutherm E-Series interoperable VAV diffusers?
The diffuser defaults to occupied mode; AV_21 iOccMode overrides it to unoccupied or standby. AV_22 iHCMode overrides the heat/cool choice (9 = invalid, ignored).
Can the BMS supply sensor values to the Acutherm E-Series interoperable VAV diffusers?
AV_26 iRmTemp, AV_27 iSATemp and AV_28 iFlowRate replace the built-in sensors; AV_29 iCO2Level feeds a CO2 value for the purge function. Write the invalid value to go back to the built-in sensor.
How do I check these points on the real E-Series interoperable VAV diffusers?
Scan the network with a BACnet IP browser such as Easy BACnet, open the device and compare its object list with this table. Anything missing is usually an option that isn't installed or a point that is disabled in the controller's configuration.
