Quest Controls BACnet T-Stat BACnet points list

Updated 7 November 2026Unofficial source

Short answer

The Quest Controls BACnet T-Stat is a BACnet MS/TP thermostat with zone and supply air thermistors, fan proving and a built-in weekly schedule of two occupied windows per day. Setpoints, delays, offsets and the schedule are analog values; fan modes and an occupied override are binary values; HVAC type, control mode and operating stage are multistate inputs; the G, Y1, Y2, W1/B, W2 and O outputs are commandable binary outputs.

This page lists 73 BACnet objects for the Quest Controls BACnet T-Stat — 66 of them writable — with each object’s type, instance number, name, engineering units and access. It is re-typed from a copy of Quest Controls’s documentation hosted by Internet Archive (manualzilla), not by Quest Controls itself, so treat it as unofficial.

BMS integration notes: Quest Controls BACnet T-Stat

Integration in brief

Set the control mode with MI 2, write the occupied and unoccupied setpoints AV 5-8 and use BV 3 to force occupied mode from the BMS (or program the schedule windows AV 25-52). Read AV 19 zone temperature, the active setpoints AV 23 / AV 24, MI 3 operating stage, AV 22 occupancy status and BI 0 fan proof.

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.

Enable & remote start

BV 3 Force Occupied Mode puts the thermostat in occupied mode from the BMS; 0 removes the BACnet override. The internal schedule (AV 25-52) runs otherwise.

Integration notes

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 BACnet T-Stat and exports what it actually has to Excel — free. New to BACnet?

Questions about the Quest Controls BACnet T-Stat

How many BACnet points does the Quest Controls BACnet T-Stat have?

This list has 73 BACnet objects: 2 analog inputs, 55 analog values, 1 binary input, 6 binary outputs, 5 binary values, 4 multi-state inputs. The exact set on a given unit depends on its firmware, installed options and configuration.

Which Quest Controls BACnet T-Stat BACnet points are writable?

66 of the 73 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 Quest Controls BACnet T-Stat BACnet documentation?

Quest Controls does not publish it on its own website. This list comes from BACnet T-Stat by Quest Controls User's Manual (Rev 1.1), revision 2011-07-28, a copy hosted by Internet Archive (manualzilla) at https://archive.org/download/manualzilla-id-7322454/7322454.pdf. Ask Quest Controls or its representative for the current revision.

What are the minimum BACnet points to integrate the Quest Controls BACnet T-Stat?

Start with BV 3 Force Occupied Mode (BACnet occupied override (1 = force occupied)); MI 2 Control Mode (Mode: 1 auto, 2 cool only, 3 heat only, 4 off); AV 5 Occupied Cool Spt (Occupied stage 1 cooling setpoint); AV 7 Occupied Heat Spt (Occupied stage 1 heating setpoint); AV 19 Zone Reading (Zone temperature with offset applied); AV 23 Cool Stage 1 Spt (Active stage 1 cooling setpoint); AV 24 Heat Stage 1 Spt (Active stage 1 heating setpoint); MI 3 Operation Mode Status (Operating stage: off, cooling or heating stage); AV 22 Occupied Mode Status (Occupied status bits: BACnet, panel, schedule); BI 0 Fan Proof (Fan proof input).

How do I enable BMS control of the Quest Controls BACnet T-Stat?

BV 3 Force Occupied Mode puts the thermostat in occupied mode from the BMS; 0 removes the BACnet override. The internal schedule (AV 25-52) runs otherwise.

How do I check these points on the real BACnet T-Stat?

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.
