FlowCon SM.0.0.1.5 / SM.0.0.1.6 actuator (FlowCon SM PICV) BACnet points list

Updated 12 November 2026

Short answer

Rotary actuators for FlowCon SM pressure-independent valves with BACnet MS/TP or Modbus. MV 6 picks the control source (voltage, mA, digital or serial bus); with serial control the BMS writes the demand to AV 4. The actuator reports position, flow, state, alarm flags and, on the SM.0.0.1.6, battery status for the power fail-safe.

This page lists 32 BACnet objects for the FlowCon SM.0.0.1.5 / SM.0.0.1.6 actuator (FlowCon SM PICV) — 20 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 SM.0.0.1.5 / SM.0.0.1.6 actuator (FlowCon SM PICV)

Integration in brief

Set MV 13 to BACnet and MV 6 to Serial (BUS), then write the demand to AV 4. Read AV 22 for flow, MV 2 for state and BSV 2 for alarms; PIV 30 sets how long the actuator waits before treating the bus as lost.

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 6	Actuator Control Signal	4 = Serial (BUS) control	Write
AV 4	Actuator Control Demand	Control demand, 0-100 %	Write
MV 2	Actuator State	Operating state	Read
AV 22	Current Flow	Current flow rate	Read
AV 1	Actuator Position	Current position, degrees	Read
Other 2	Actuator Alarm Flags	Alarm bits	Read

Enable & remote start

MV 13 selects the communication mode (BACnet) and MV 6 = 4 (Serial) makes the actuator follow AV 4.

Heartbeat & communication loss

PIV 30 sets the network timeout (1-60 min); BSV 2 bit 12 flags a network timeout. AV 18 sets the position on control signal loss (-1 = stay in place).

Network setup

MS/TP MAC (1-127) and baud rate (autobaud or 9600-115200) are set in the Network Port object.

Watch out for

BV 1 resets the actuator to factory settings.
BV 2 and BV 3 clear error codes 2 (over torque) and 7 (lack of valve).

Integration notes

Bitstring Value objects BSV 2 (alarm flags) and BSV 3 (user configuration flags) and Network Port 1 are listed as Other with their printed instance numbers.
BSV 2 bits: 0 power fail, 1 no valve, 2 hardware, 3/4 overtorque CW/CCW, 5 over temperature, 7 no control signal, 8 battery fail, 9 power low, 10 was overtorqued, 12 network timeout.
AI 4, AV 17 and MV 12 only apply to the SM.0.0.1.6 fail-safe version.
Flow values (AV 16, AV 22) use the unit chosen in MV 5.

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 SM.0.0.1.5 / SM.0.0.1.6 actuator (FlowCon SM PICV) and exports what it actually has to Excel — free.

How do I enable BMS control of the FlowCon SM.0.0.1.5 / SM.0.0.1.6 actuator (FlowCon SM PICV)?

MV 13 selects the communication mode (BACnet) and MV 6 = 4 (Serial) makes the actuator follow AV 4.

Does the FlowCon SM.0.0.1.5 / SM.0.0.1.6 actuator (FlowCon SM PICV) need a BACnet heartbeat or have a communication timeout?

PIV 30 sets the network timeout (1-60 min); BSV 2 bit 12 flags a network timeout. AV 18 sets the position on control signal loss (-1 = stay in place).

How do I check these points on the real SM.0.0.1.5 / SM.0.0.1.6 actuator (FlowCon SM PICV)?

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.
