Berner AIR BMS package (IntelliSwitch) BACnet points list
Updated 4 November 2026
The Berner AIR BMS package makes the IntelliSwitch air curtain control a BACnet application specific controller (B-ASC) on BACnet MS/TP or BACnet IP (wired or wireless). Besides mode, fan speed, time delay and door status it adds a BMS mode in which the BMS calls for fan and heat directly, a heater disable and a heater cool-down delay. Heated models add a setpoint and door temperature in °F and °C.
This page lists 14 BACnet objects for the Berner AIR BMS package (IntelliSwitch) — 9 of them writable — with each object’s type, instance number, name, engineering units and access. It is re-typed from Berner’s own free documentation, linked below.

BMS integration notes: Berner AIR BMS package (IntelliSwitch)
Either write MV 1 Mode to Off/On/Auto/Comfort+ and let the curtain run itself, or set Mode to 5 (BMS) and drive it with BV 1 CallForFan and, on heated models, BV 2 CallForHeat. Set PIV 2 FanSpeed and the AV 1 (°F) or AV 2 (°C) setpoint, and read BI 1 DoorStatus and the door temperature.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| MV 1 | Mode | Mode: 1 off, 2 on, 3 auto, 4 Comfort+, 5 BMS | Write |
| BV 1 | CallForFan | Fan run command in BMS mode | Write |
| BV 2 | CallForHeat | Heat command in BMS mode (heated models) | Write |
| PIV 2 | FanSpeed | Fan speed command | Write |
| AV 1 | TargetTemperatureFahrenheit | Heat setpoint, 34-90 °F (heated models) | Write |
| BI 1 | DoorStatus | Door open (active) or closed | Read |
| AI 1 | TemperatureFahrenheit | Door temperature, °F (heated models) | Read |
Enable & remote start
MV 1 Mode = 5 (BMS) hands the fan and heater to BV 1 CallForFan and BV 2 CallForHeat. BV 3 HeaterDisabled turns the heater off completely.
Network setup
- MS/TP: MAC address 0-127, max master and max info frames are set in the Network Port object (Serial).
- IP: wired or wireless is chosen on the touchscreen or the mobile app; UDP port 47808 by default; foreign device registration with a BBMD address and a default lifetime of 30.
Watch out for
- MV 1 reports Out_Of_Service = true while the emergency stop is active.
- CallForFan and CallForHeat only act when Mode is BMS.
- AV 1 (°F) and AV 2 (°C) are both the temperature setpoint; map the one in your BMS units.

Object ID lookup: Berner AIR BMS package point IDs by name
Integration notes
- From the PICS dated 26 March 2025 (footer Rev. December 2024; file name 3.1.0212); each object's present value is marked RO or RW.
- Berner's earlier PICS for the Architectural Elite AE08-F / AE10-F (same software 3.00 / firmware 1.46) lists a subset: no BMS mode state, CallForFan, CallForHeat, HeaterDisabled or Cool Down Delay.
- The Network Port object (type 56) is listed as Other 1; it is named Serial in MS/TP mode and Wired or Wireless in IP mode.
- The summary table spells PIV 4 as CoolDownDelay; the object block gives the name Cool Down Delay.
- AV 1-2, AI 1-2, PIV 4, BV 2 and BV 3 apply to heated models 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 Berner AIR BMS package (IntelliSwitch) and exports what it actually has to Excel — free.

Questions about the Berner AIR BMS package (IntelliSwitch)
How many BACnet points does the Berner AIR BMS package (IntelliSwitch) have?
This list has 14 BACnet objects: 2 analog inputs, 2 analog values, 1 binary input, 3 binary values, 1 multi-state value, 4 positive integer values, 1 other. The exact set on a given unit depends on its firmware, installed options and configuration.
Which Berner AIR BMS package (IntelliSwitch) BACnet points are writable?
9 of the 14 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.
Where is the official Berner AIR BMS package (IntelliSwitch) BACnet documentation?
The source is Berner AIR BMS BACnet PICS (for Berner air curtains with the Berner AIR BMS package), revision 2025-03-26, published free by Berner at https://berner.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/Berner-AIR-BMS-BACnet-PICS-3.1.0212.pdf.
What are the minimum BACnet points to integrate the Berner AIR BMS package (IntelliSwitch)?
Start with MV 1 Mode (Mode: 1 off, 2 on, 3 auto, 4 Comfort+, 5 BMS); BV 1 CallForFan (Fan run command in BMS mode); BV 2 CallForHeat (Heat command in BMS mode (heated models)); PIV 2 FanSpeed (Fan speed command); AV 1 TargetTemperatureFahrenheit (Heat setpoint, 34-90 °F (heated models)); BI 1 DoorStatus (Door open (active) or closed); AI 1 TemperatureFahrenheit (Door temperature, °F (heated models)).
How do I enable BMS control of the Berner AIR BMS package (IntelliSwitch)?
MV 1 Mode = 5 (BMS) hands the fan and heater to BV 1 CallForFan and BV 2 CallForHeat. BV 3 HeaterDisabled turns the heater off completely.
How do I check these points on the real Berner AIR BMS package (IntelliSwitch)?
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.
