Cleaver-Brooks HSC Boiler Interface Module (ProtoNode) BACnet points list

Updated 7 November 2026Unofficial source

Short answer

The ProtoNode maps the HSC boiler interface module to BACnet: boiler status, alarm word, hours, cycles, inlet and outlet temperature, firing rate and the module's inputs and outputs. Writable AVs set DHW setpoints and enables, a remote setpoint and enable, and a heartbeat.

This page lists 40 BACnet objects for the Cleaver-Brooks HSC Boiler Interface Module (ProtoNode) — 9 of them writable — with each object’s type, instance number, name, engineering units and access. It is re-typed from a copy of Cleaver-Brooks’s documentation hosted by watmfg.com, not by Cleaver-Brooks itself, so treat it as unofficial.

BMS integration notes: Cleaver-Brooks HSC Boiler Interface Module (ProtoNode)

Integration in brief

Enable the boiler (AV 8), write the remote setpoint (AV 5) and keep the heartbeat (AV 9) updated. Read boiler status, outlet temperature, firing rate and the alarm output.

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.

Network setup

Cleaver-Brooks HSC Boiler Interface Module (ProtoNode) 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

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 HSC Boiler Interface Module (ProtoNode) and exports what it actually has to Excel — free. New to BACnet? Start with what a BACnet points list is and what the object types mean.

Questions about the Cleaver-Brooks HSC Boiler Interface Module (ProtoNode)

How many BACnet points does the Cleaver-Brooks HSC Boiler Interface Module (ProtoNode) have?

This list has 40 BACnet objects: 15 analog inputs, 9 analog values, 16 binary inputs. The exact set on a given unit depends on its firmware, installed options and configuration.

Which Cleaver-Brooks HSC Boiler Interface Module (ProtoNode) BACnet points are writable?

9 of the 40 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 Cleaver-Brooks HSC Boiler Interface Module (ProtoNode) BACnet documentation?

Cleaver-Brooks does not publish it on its own website. This list comes from Cloud Enabled ProtoNode Gateway Startup Guide (RER/LER) for interfacing Cleaver-Brooks products (750-426), revision 03/2018, a copy hosted by watmfg.com at https://watmfg.com/watmfg23082016/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/750-426-ProtoNode-Cloud.pdf. Ask Cleaver-Brooks or its representative for the current revision.

What are the minimum BACnet points to integrate the Cleaver-Brooks HSC Boiler Interface Module (ProtoNode)?

Start with AV 8 Remote Enable (Remote enable); AV 5 Remote Setpoint Write (Remote setpoint); AV 9 Heartbeat Write Tag (Heartbeat written by the BMS); AI 1 Boiler Status (Boiler status); BI 6 Boiler Run Output (Boiler run output); AI 10 Outlet Temp (Outlet temperature); AI 11 Firing Rate (Firing rate); BI 4 Alarm Output (Alarm output); AI 2 Alarm Word (Alarm word).

Does the Cleaver-Brooks HSC Boiler Interface Module (ProtoNode) need a BACnet heartbeat or have a communication timeout?

AV 9 Heartbeat Write Tag is written by the BMS; the guide does not state the timeout.

How do I check these points on the real HSC Boiler Interface Module (ProtoNode)?

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.
