Dwyer Series DHC Digihelic differential pressure controller, BACnet MS/TP BACnet points list
Updated 12 November 2026
The DHC Digihelic is a differential pressure gauge, transmitter and two-relay controller that can also show velocity or flow. Its RS-485 port runs Modbus RTU (factory setting) or BACnet MS/TP, picked in the Conn menu. Over BACnet it exposes pressure, derived velocity and flow, peak and valley, and all set point, alarm, relay and external input settings as writable objects.
This page lists 37 BACnet objects for the Dwyer Series DHC Digihelic differential pressure controller, BACnet MS/TP — 29 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 DHC Digihelic differential pressure controller, BACnet MS/TP
Pick BAC in the Prot sub menu, set an address, then read AI 1 pressure (or AV 1 / AV 2 velocity and flow). Set point, alarm and relay settings are all writable over the network if the BMS should own them.
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 9 | Set Point 1 Trigger Value | Set point 1 trigger value, process units | Write |
| AI 1 | Pressure | Differential pressure | Read |
| AV 2 | Flow | Airflow (flow mode) | Read |
| BV 2 | Set Point 1 Status | Set point 1 active | Read |
| BV 4 | Set Point 2 Status | Set point 2 active | Read |
| BV 6 | Alarm High Limit Status | High alarm active | Write |
| BV 8 | Alarm Low Limit Status | Low alarm active | Write |
Network setup
- Protocol is Modbus RTU from the factory; choose BAC in Conn > Prot to use BACnet MS/TP.
- Address range 0-127, factory 127; baud 9600 to 115200 or auto (factory). Parity and stop bits are fixed at none and 1 on BACnet.
- Device instance and device name default to 607xxx and follow the address until written over the network.
- DeviceCommunicationControl and ReinitializeDevice need the password "Dwyer".
Watch out for
- Peak and valley (AV 3-4) cannot be reset over the network.
- Alarm status BVs can only be written inactive when Manual Alarm Reset (BV 9) is on and the condition has cleared.
- A change of bus serial settings needs a power cycle to rerun auto serial configuration.

Integration notes
- Pressure, velocity and flow units are model specific; the BACnet units property is set separately from the display units.
- Peak, valley, set point, alarm and output limit values use the units of the process mode picked in MV 1.
- The overview table prints AV 12 as "Set Point 2 Reset"; its property table names it "Set Point 2 Reset Value" (used here).
- Alarm and input delays (PIV 1-2) have a maximum of 3600; the manual does not print their units.
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 DHC Digihelic differential pressure controller, BACnet MS/TP and exports what it actually has to Excel — free.
