FlowCon FH-BUS / FN.0.2-BUS PICV actuator BACnet points list
Updated 12 November 2026
Modulating bus actuators for FlowCon pressure-independent control valves, talking BACnet MS/TP or Modbus. The BMS can drive the valve directly (AV 1 flow set point) or let the actuator run room temperature, thermal power or return temperature control from its own PI loop, with two configurable sensor ports. It also reports flow, delta T, thermal power, energy and several fault flags.
This page lists 72 BACnet objects for the FlowCon FH-BUS / FN.0.2-BUS PICV actuator — 44 of them writable — with each object’s type, instance number, name, engineering units and access. It is re-typed from FlowCon’s own free documentation, linked below.

BMS integration notes: FlowCon FH-BUS / FN.0.2-BUS PICV actuator
Set MV 4 to 1 (external control signal) and write the flow demand to AV 1, or pick a local control mode and write its set point. Set MV 6 to choose what the actuator does if the bus goes quiet, and watch BI 3-7 for faults.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| MV 4 | Operating mode | Control mode; 1 = follow AV 1 | Write |
| AV 1 | External control signal | Flow set point, 0-100 % | Write |
| MV 9 | Choose HVAC mode (Changeover) | Changeover: shut-off, heating, cooling, auto | Write |
| AI 6 | Actual value control signal | Actual flow, % of max. | Read |
| AI 7 | Actual volume flow rate | Actual flow, l/h | Read |
| AI 8 | Differential temperature | Water delta T | Read |
| BI 3 | Actuator is busy | Not following the control signal | Read |
| BI 4 | Actuator in malfunction | Hardware fault | Read |
| BI 6 | Error: valve blocking | Valve blocked | Read |
Enable & remote start
MV 4 = 1 makes the actuator follow AV 1; other MV 4 values hand control to the built-in room temperature, thermal power or return temperature loop.
Heartbeat & communication loss
MV 6 sets the action on communication loss: fail in place, or after 120 s close, open or go to the AV 8 position (default 30 %).
Sensors & values from the BMS
Supply/return temperatures (AV 4/AV 5) and room temperature (AV 17) can be written by the BMS when MV 5 / MV 10 select BUS as the source.
Network setup
- MS/TP MAC is AV 28 (1-127), writable only with the DIP switches set to 63.
- Baud rate is MV 7 (default 38400); a change needs an actuator restart.
Watch out for
- MV 1 service commands include reset to factory settings; write it only on purpose.
- AV 2/AV 3 limit the control signal range; AV 22/AV 23 limits can override AV 1 (BI 8 shows when).

Integration notes
- The FH-BUS and FN.0.2-BUS PICS print the same 72 objects; they differ only in MV 8 valve choices, the PT100/PT1000 option in MV 2 and the AV 18 range.
- Network Port 1 (MS/TP) is listed as Other 1.
- AV 4, AV 5 and AV 17 are writable only when MV 5 / MV 10 selects BUS as the source.
- Thermal power and energy values (AI 16-18) are only valid on PICVs.
- Instance numbers skip AI 14, AV 9, AV 21 and AV 24-27, AV 33-34 as printed.
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 FH-BUS / FN.0.2-BUS PICV actuator and exports what it actually has to Excel — free. New to BACnet?

Questions about the FlowCon FH-BUS / FN.0.2-BUS PICV actuator
How many BACnet points does the FlowCon FH-BUS / FN.0.2-BUS PICV actuator have?
This list has 72 BACnet objects: 17 analog inputs, 1 analog output, 27 analog values, 8 binary inputs, 4 binary values, 1 multi-state input, 13 multi-state values, 1 other. The exact set on a given unit depends on its firmware, installed options and configuration.
Which FlowCon FH-BUS / FN.0.2-BUS PICV actuator BACnet points are writable?
44 of the 72 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 FlowCon FH-BUS / FN.0.2-BUS PICV actuator BACnet documentation?
The source is BACnet PICS for FlowCon FH-BUS, revision 2026-03-02, published free by FlowCon at https://flowcon.com/fileadmin/user_upload/Pdf/Certificates/BACnet_PICS/FlowCon-BACnet-PICS-Statement-FlowCon-FH-BUS.pdf.
What are the minimum BACnet points to integrate the FlowCon FH-BUS / FN.0.2-BUS PICV actuator?
Start with MV 4 Operating mode (Control mode; 1 = follow AV 1); AV 1 External control signal (Flow set point, 0-100 %); MV 9 Choose HVAC mode (Changeover) (Changeover: shut-off, heating, cooling, auto); AI 6 Actual value control signal (Actual flow, % of max); AI 7 Actual volume flow rate (Actual flow, l/h); AI 8 Differential temperature (Water delta T); BI 3 Actuator is busy (Not following the control signal); BI 4 Actuator in malfunction (Hardware fault); BI 6 Error: valve blocking (Valve blocked).
How do I enable BMS control of the FlowCon FH-BUS / FN.0.2-BUS PICV actuator?
MV 4 = 1 makes the actuator follow AV 1; other MV 4 values hand control to the built-in room temperature, thermal power or return temperature loop.
Does the FlowCon FH-BUS / FN.0.2-BUS PICV actuator need a BACnet heartbeat or have a communication timeout?
MV 6 sets the action on communication loss: fail in place, or after 120 s close, open or go to the AV 8 position (default 30 %).
Can the BMS supply sensor values to the FlowCon FH-BUS / FN.0.2-BUS PICV actuator?
Supply/return temperatures (AV 4/AV 5) and room temperature (AV 17) can be written by the BMS when MV 5 / MV 10 select BUS as the source.
How do I check these points on the real FH-BUS / FN.0.2-BUS PICV actuator?
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.
