Cleaver-Brooks HSC Hydronic System Controller (ProtoNode) BACnet points list

Updated 7 November 2026Unofficial source

Short answer

The ProtoNode maps the HSC boiler-plant controller to BACnet. Each condensing boiler (1-10) and non-condensing boiler (A-J) has a block of state, alarm word, hours, cycles, status bits, inlet and outlet temperature; the plant section adds header and return temperatures, active setpoints, reset-curve settings, lead/lag order, pump and damper module data and run counts. Four AVs let the BMS enable the system, send a setpoint and outdoor temperature, and write a heartbeat.

This page lists 318 BACnet objects for the Cleaver-Brooks HSC Hydronic System Controller (ProtoNode) — 4 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 Hydronic System Controller (ProtoNode)

Integration in brief

Enable the plant with AV 3 and write the setpoint with AV 1, keep AV 4 heartbeat updated, and optionally send outdoor air temperature on AV 2. Read system mode, header and return temperatures, boiler counts and the alarm words.

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.

Enable & remote start

AV 3 Remote Modbus System Enable enables the plant; AV 1 Remote Modbus Setpoint Value sends the setpoint.

Heartbeat & communication loss

AV 4 Modbus Heartbeat is written by the BMS; the guide does not state the timeout.

Sensors & values from the BMS

AV 2 Remote Modbus Outdoor Air Temp takes an outdoor air temperature from the BMS.

Object ID lookup: Cleaver-Brooks HSC Hydronic System Controller point IDs by name

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 Hydronic System Controller (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 Hydronic System Controller (ProtoNode)

How many BACnet points does the Cleaver-Brooks HSC Hydronic System Controller (ProtoNode) have?

This list has 318 BACnet objects: 314 analog inputs, 4 analog values. The exact set on a given unit depends on its firmware, installed options and configuration.

Which Cleaver-Brooks HSC Hydronic System Controller (ProtoNode) BACnet points are writable?

4 of the 318 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 Cleaver-Brooks HSC Hydronic System Controller (ProtoNode) BACnet documentation?

What are the minimum BACnet points to integrate the Cleaver-Brooks HSC Hydronic System Controller (ProtoNode)?

Start with AV 3 Remote Modbus System Enable (Remote system enable); AV 1 Remote Modbus Setpoint Value (Remote setpoint); AV 4 Modbus Heartbeat (Heartbeat written by the BMS); AI 312 System Mode (System mode); AI 253 Main Supply Header Temp (Main supply header temperature); AI 254 System Return Temp (System return temperature); AI 213 Number of Cond Boilers Running (Condensing boilers running); AI 215 Number of Non-Cond Boilers Running (Non-condensing boilers running); AI 208 Alarm Word 1 Value (Alarm word 1).

How do I enable BMS control of the Cleaver-Brooks HSC Hydronic System Controller (ProtoNode)?

AV 3 Remote Modbus System Enable enables the plant; AV 1 Remote Modbus Setpoint Value sends the setpoint.

Does the Cleaver-Brooks HSC Hydronic System Controller (ProtoNode) need a BACnet heartbeat or have a communication timeout?

AV 4 Modbus Heartbeat is written by the BMS; the guide does not state the timeout.

Can the BMS supply sensor values to the Cleaver-Brooks HSC Hydronic System Controller (ProtoNode)?

AV 2 Remote Modbus Outdoor Air Temp takes an outdoor air temperature from the BMS.

How do I check these points on the real HSC Hydronic System Controller (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.
