Dwyer Series MS2 Magnesense II Differential Pressure Transmitter with BACnet (MS2-B) BACnet points list
Updated 7 November 2026Unofficial source
The MS2 Magnesense II is a differential pressure transmitter with BACnet MS/TP. It reports pressure in four units as analog inputs and calculated velocity and flow as analog values, using a writable K factor and duct area. Binary values select the default K factor, start zero and span calibration and restore factory values.
This page lists 15 BACnet objects for the Dwyer Series MS2 Magnesense II Differential Pressure Transmitter with BACnet (MS2-B) — 6 of them writable — with each object’s type, instance number, name, engineering units and access. It is re-typed from a copy of Dwyer’s documentation hosted by Kele, not by Dwyer itself, so treat it as unofficial.

BMS integration notes: Dwyer Series MS2 Magnesense II Differential Pressure Transmitter with BACnet (MS2-B)
Read the pressure in the unit you need (AI 1-4). For airflow, set BV 1 to 0, write the K value (AV 5) and duct area (AV 6), then read velocity or flow from AV 1-4.
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 | Pressure inWC | Differential pressure, inH2O | Read |
| AI 2 | Pressure Pascals | Differential pressure, Pa | Read |
| AV 3 | Flow CFM | Calculated airflow, CFM | Read |
| AV 7 | Sensor Present | Sensor type fitted (0 = no sensor) | Read |
Network setup
- Left DIP switch SW1 sets the MS/TP MAC address (factory 127); the baud rate auto-detects after power-up or an address change.
- Default device instance 607xxx (xxx = MAC); a device instance written over BACnet is kept even if the MAC changes.
- Changes to Max Master and Max Info Frames need a power cycle.
- DeviceCommunicationControl and ReinitializeDevice need the password "Dwyer".
Watch out for
- Span calibration (BV 3) only works within 5 minutes after a zero calibration (BV 2).
- BV 1 ships as 1 (default K factor and area); velocity and flow are only real units after it is set to 0.

Integration notes
- Objects come from the manual object overview; access follows the object property tables in the appendices.
- Velocity and flow (AV 1-4) use the K value (AV 5) and flow area (AV 6) only when BV 1 is 0; otherwise they are scaled 0-1.0 of full scale.
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 MS2 Magnesense II Differential Pressure Transmitter with BACnet (MS2-B) and exports what it actually has to Excel — free.

Questions about the Dwyer Series MS2 Magnesense II Differential Pressure Transmitter with BACnet (MS2-B)
How many BACnet points does the Dwyer Series MS2 Magnesense II Differential Pressure Transmitter with BACnet (MS2-B) have?
This list has 15 BACnet objects: 4 analog inputs, 7 analog values, 4 binary values. The exact set on a given unit depends on its firmware, installed options and configuration.
Which Dwyer Series MS2 Magnesense II Differential Pressure Transmitter with BACnet (MS2-B) BACnet points are writable?
6 of the 15 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 MS2 Magnesense II Differential Pressure Transmitter with BACnet (MS2-B) BACnet documentation?
Dwyer does not publish it on its own website. This list comes from Series MS2 Magnesense II Differential Pressure Transmitter with BACnet Communication Protocol - Installation and Operating Instructions (Bulletin P-MS2-B), revision 2018-06, a copy hosted by Kele at https://assets.kele.com/Catalog/19%20Pressure/PDFs/MS2%20Series%20Installation%20and%20Operating%20Instructions%20P-MS2-B.pdf. Ask Dwyer or its representative for the current revision.
What are the minimum BACnet points to integrate the Dwyer Series MS2 Magnesense II Differential Pressure Transmitter with BACnet (MS2-B)?
Start with AI 1 Pressure inWC (Differential pressure, inH2O); AI 2 Pressure Pascals (Differential pressure, Pa); AV 3 Flow CFM (Calculated airflow, CFM); AV 7 Sensor Present (Sensor type fitted (0 = no sensor)).
How do I check these points on the real Series MS2 Magnesense II Differential Pressure Transmitter with BACnet (MS2-B)?
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.
