Dwyer Series AVLV low air velocity transmitter, BACnet MS/TP BACnet points list
Updated 12 November 2026
The AVLV measures low air velocity and air temperature and can report volumetric flow from a programmed flow area. On BACnet MS/TP it gives velocity and temperature as Analog Inputs in imperial and metric units, flow and flow area as Analog Values, and three Binary Values to start zero, span and factory-reset routines. The MS/TP address is set with a DIP switch.
This page lists 11 BACnet objects for the Dwyer Series AVLV low air velocity transmitter, BACnet MS/TP — 4 of them writable — with each object’s type, instance number, name, engineering units and access. It is re-typed from Dwyer’s own free documentation, linked below.

BMS integration notes: Dwyer Series AVLV low air velocity transmitter, BACnet MS/TP
Set the MS/TP address on DIP switch SW2, power up so auto-baud can detect the bus, then read velocity (AI 1/2), temperature (AI 3/4) and flow (AV 1/2).
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| AI 1 | Velocity FPM | Air velocity, FPM | Read |
| AV 1 | Flow CFM | Airflow, cfm (uses the flow area) | Read |
| AI 3 | Temperature F | Air temperature, °F | Read |
Network setup
- MS/TP address is set on DIP switch SW2 (binary, valid 0-127); factory address is 127.
- Auto-baud runs after power-up and after an address change; it completes on the first Who-Is or ReadProperty it answers.
- Device instance defaults to 607xxx (xxx = address) until a specific instance is written.
- DeviceCommunicationControl and ReinitializeDevice need the password "Dwyer"; Max Master and Max Info Frames changes need a power cycle.
Watch out for
- Zero (BV 1) only works with no airflow and within ±2% of span of the previous zero.
- Span (BV 2) must follow a zero within 5 minutes or it fails.
- Flow readings are only right once the flow area matches the duct.

Object ID lookup: Dwyer Series AVLV low air velocity transmitter, BACnet MS/TP point IDs by name
Integration notes
- Flow and flow area are given twice, in imperial and metric units, as separate objects.
- The property tables mark AV 4 Flow Area SqM Present_Value as Read/Write but AV 3 Flow Area SqFt as Read; kept as printed.
- BV 3 is printed as "Restore Factory Pressure Values"; the text says it restores zero, span and area.
- Zero, span and reset each take up to 10 s; the BV stays active on success and drops to inactive on failure.
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 Series AVLV low air velocity transmitter, BACnet MS/TP and exports what it actually has to Excel — free.

Questions about the Dwyer Series AVLV low air velocity transmitter, BACnet MS/TP
How many BACnet points does the Dwyer Series AVLV low air velocity transmitter, BACnet MS/TP have?
This list has 11 BACnet objects: 4 analog inputs, 4 analog values, 3 binary values. The exact set on a given unit depends on its firmware, installed options and configuration.
Which Dwyer Series AVLV low air velocity transmitter, BACnet MS/TP BACnet points are writable?
4 of the 11 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 Dwyer Series AVLV low air velocity transmitter, BACnet MS/TP BACnet documentation?
The source is Series AVLV Low Air Velocity Transmitter with BACnet Communication - Specifications, Installation and Operating Instructions (Bulletin P-AVLV-B (FR# 444499-10 Rev. 2)), revision 5/23, published free by Dwyer at https://assets.dwyeromega.com/manuals-do/AVLV_P_AVLV_B.pdf.
What are the minimum BACnet points to integrate the Dwyer Series AVLV low air velocity transmitter, BACnet MS/TP?
Start with AI 1 Velocity FPM (Air velocity, FPM); AV 1 Flow CFM (Airflow, cfm (uses the flow area)); AI 3 Temperature F (Air temperature, °F).
How do I check these points on the real Series AVLV low air velocity transmitter, BACnet MS/TP?
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.
