ONICON F-4300 clamp-on ultrasonic flow meter (BACnet MS/TP) BACnet points list
Updated 12 November 2026
The F-4300 is a clamp-on transit-time ultrasonic flow meter. Over BACnet MS/TP it reports velocity, flow rate, speed of sound and signal strength, a volume total with previous-day values, two relay states and a sensor status code.
This page lists 12 BACnet objects for the ONICON F-4300 clamp-on ultrasonic flow meter (BACnet MS/TP) — 3 of them writable — with each object’s type, instance number, name, engineering units and access. It is re-typed from ONICON’s own free documentation, linked below.

BMS integration notes: ONICON F-4300 clamp-on ultrasonic flow meter (BACnet MS/TP)
Read AI 2 for flow rate and AV 1 for the total, and map MSV 1 for sensor faults. AI 4 signal strength helps when the reading looks wrong.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| BV 1 | Reset Volume Total | Resets the volume total | Write |
| AI 2 | Flow Rate | Flow rate | Read |
| AV 1 | Volume Total | Volume total | Read |
| AI 4 | Signal Strength | Transducer signal strength | Read |
| MV 1 | Flow Sensor Status | Sensor status, 0 = good | Read |
Network setup
- MAC address 1-247 (default 17); device instance default 57017; baud 9600-76800 (default 38400).
- Protocol (BACnet or Modbus), device ID and MAC are set in the meter's Special Functions menu.
- 120 ohm termination by jumper JP1 (default off); no biasing. The manual asks for a 3-wire RS485 connection.
Watch out for
- Check the Units property of each AI/AV on site; the PICS does not list them.

Object ID lookup: ONICON F-4300 point IDs by name
Integration notes
- Object names from tables 2a, 3a, 4a and 5a of the PICS section; the device Object_List matches (AI 1-4, AV 1-4, BV 1-3, MSV 1).
- Units are not printed per object; the PICS gives them as "Various".
- The BV table marks Present_Value writable for all three BVs, including the relay states; only BV 1 is a command.
- AI Present_Value is commandable only while Out_Of_Service is true.
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 F-4300 clamp-on ultrasonic flow meter (BACnet MS/TP) and exports what it actually has to Excel — free.

Questions about the ONICON F-4300 clamp-on ultrasonic flow meter (BACnet MS/TP)
How many BACnet points does the ONICON F-4300 clamp-on ultrasonic flow meter (BACnet MS/TP) have?
This list has 12 BACnet objects: 4 analog inputs, 4 analog values, 3 binary values, 1 multi-state value. The exact set on a given unit depends on its firmware, installed options and configuration.
Which ONICON F-4300 clamp-on ultrasonic flow meter (BACnet MS/TP) BACnet points are writable?
3 of the 12 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 ONICON F-4300 clamp-on ultrasonic flow meter (BACnet MS/TP) BACnet documentation?
The source is F-4300 Clamp-on Ultrasonic Flow Meter Manual (DOC-0003010), revision Rev. S, published free by ONICON at https://www.onicon.com/download/f-4300-clamp-on-ultrasonic-flow-meter-manual/?v=6247.
What are the minimum BACnet points to integrate the ONICON F-4300 clamp-on ultrasonic flow meter (BACnet MS/TP)?
Start with BV 1 Reset Volume Total (Resets the volume total); AI 2 Flow Rate (Flow rate); AV 1 Volume Total (Volume total); AI 4 Signal Strength (Transducer signal strength); MV 1 Flow Sensor Status (Sensor status, 0 = good).
How do I check these points on the real F-4300 clamp-on ultrasonic flow meter (BACnet MS/TP)?
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.
