Heat-Timer MPC Platinum (BACnet) BACnet points list
Updated 6 November 2026
The MPC Platinum runs a heating plant (burner, valve or district steam) on outdoor temperature with day and night heat adjustments. Its BACnet board exposes the settings, schedule slots, sensor readings and relay states as Analog, Binary and Multi-state Values with instances in steps of 100.
This page lists 32 BACnet objects for the Heat-Timer MPC Platinum (BACnet) — 27 of them writable — with each object’s type, instance number, name, engineering units and access. It is re-typed from Heat-Timer’s own free documentation, linked below.

BMS integration notes: Heat-Timer MPC Platinum (BACnet)
The MPC cycles a heating plant (burner/valve or district steam) on outdoor temperature. From the BMS, read the system and outdoor temperatures and the output and system relays; adjust the day/night heat adjustments, cutoffs or system setpoint, and force a day/night shift if needed.
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.

Network setup
- BACnet IP or BACnet MS/TP is chosen at the panel (Network Settings > Switch to IP / Switch to MS/TP).
- Device ID is a 7-digit number entered at the panel; the device object name is HTC_ followed by the panel serial number.
- MS/TP: MAC address 1-127 (default 1), baud 9600, 19200 or 38400 (default 9600), 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit.
- IP: leave the IP and mask blank for DHCP, or enter a fixed address at the panel.
Watch out for
- XYZMIN applies in District Steam mode; XYZTEMP, HDIFF and TLOCKOUT in Burner/valve mode.
- BOOSTADJ applies with BOOSTMODE VariDay/VariDayNight; BOOSTTIME with ManualBoost.
- The weekly schedule is 56 AV slots (instances 2000-2055), minutes since midnight; 1440 = empty slot.

Integration notes
- Objects are Analog, Binary and Multi-state Values only. Rows without a read-only mark in the manual are listed as writable.
- Temperature objects use °F or °C depending on the INMODE (sensor type/mode) setting.
- Start-up settings can be read but not written over BACnet; Heat-Timer says to set them at the panel first.
- The manual prints some rows as ranges (SCHEDULES00-55 = 2000-2055). Only the first and last printed objects of each range are listed here; the ones in between follow the same pattern.
- BOOSTADJ is printed with the range "0 1 - 6 4" (decimal points appear to be missing).
- Variable list: manual pages 12-13.
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 MPC Platinum (BACnet) and exports what it actually has to Excel — free. New to BACnet?

Questions about the Heat-Timer MPC Platinum (BACnet)
How many BACnet points does the Heat-Timer MPC Platinum (BACnet) have?
This list has 32 BACnet objects: 19 analog values, 9 binary values, 4 multi-state values. The exact set on a given unit depends on its firmware, installed options and configuration.
Which Heat-Timer MPC Platinum (BACnet) BACnet points are writable?
27 of the 32 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 Heat-Timer MPC Platinum (BACnet) BACnet documentation?
The source is Platinum BACnet Installation and Configuration Manual (IP and MS/TP) - MPC Platinum BACnet Variable List (pp. 12-13) (HT# 059082-00C), published free by Heat-Timer at https://www.heat-timer.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/Platinum-BACnet-Configuration-Manual-059082C-Color.pdf.
What are the minimum BACnet points to integrate the Heat-Timer MPC Platinum (BACnet)?
Start with MV 2200 SHIFT (Force day/night: 1 To-Day, 2 To-Night, 3 Extend-Day); MV 600 DADJUST (Day heat adjustment curve, A-P); AV 2900 XYZTEMP (System setpoint (burner/valve mode)); AV 2400 SYSSEN (System sensor temperature); AV 1400 ODTEMP (Outdoor temperature); BV 1700 OUTPUT (Output relay (1 = on)); BV 2500 SYSTEM (System relay (1 = on)).
How do I check these points on the real MPC Platinum (BACnet)?
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.
