TSI SureFlow 8681 Adaptive Offset Controller BACnet points list
Updated 6 November 2026
The SureFlow 8681 controls a laboratory room by tracking supply, general exhaust and fume hood flow to hold a flow offset, trimming the offset to keep a room pressure setpoint, and running a reheat valve for temperature. Over BACnet MS/TP it exposes room pressure, all flows and the current offset, temperature, damper and valve positions, setpoints and alarm limits, occupancy and emergency commands, and a Status Index alarm code.
This page lists 31 BACnet objects for the TSI SureFlow 8681 Adaptive Offset Controller — 18 of them writable — with each object’s type, instance number, name, engineering units and access. It is re-typed from TSI’s own free documentation, linked below.

BMS integration notes: TSI SureFlow 8681 Adaptive Offset Controller
Command occupancy with Occ/Unocc Mode (BV 1) and use Emergency Mode (MV 2) for purge. Read room pressure, the supply, exhaust and hood flows, the current offset, temperature and the Status Index (MI 1) for alarms.
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 | Occ/Unocc Mode | 0 = occupied, 1 = unoccupied | Write |
| MV 2 | Emergency Mode | 1 = exit, 2 = enter emergency mode, 3 = normal | Write |

| AV 14 | Temperature Setpoint | Occupied room temperature setpoint | Write |

| MI 1 | Status Index | Alarm state; 1 = normal, 7 = emergency | Read |
Enable & remote start
Occ/Unocc Mode (BV 1) switches between the occupied and unoccupied flow and temperature setpoints; Emergency Mode (MV 2) works like the EMERGENCY key.
Network setup
- BACnet MS/TP master at 9600, 19.2k, 38.4k or 76.8k baud (PICS).
- Set the MS/TP MAC with the MAC ADDRESS menu item (1-127).
- The device instance is 868000 plus the MAC address (MAC 1 gives 868001).
Watch out for
- Pressure units change with Units Value (MV 3); check it before scaling pressures in the BMS.
- The device instance changes if the MAC address is changed.
- Setpoints and alarm limits are stored settings; do not write them cyclically.
TSI SureFlow 8681 Adaptive Offset Controller BACnet objects
Type: AI, AO, AV, BI, BO, BV, MI/MO/MV (multi-state) · Access: Read read-only, Write writable, Command writable with a priority array.
Note: the source document has no read/write column, so access here is inferred from the object type (inputs read-only, values writable). Confirm on the live controller before writing.

Integration notes
- From the Model 8681-BAC BACnet MS/TP Object Set table (manual pages 69-70).
- The table has no read/write column. Access is inferred from the PICS, which lists Present_Value as writable for Analog, Binary and Multi-state Values only.
- Units follow Units Value (MV 3): 1 = ft/min, 2 = m/s, 3 = in. H2O, 4 = Pa; English units (cfm, °F) apply with 1 or 3. English is the default.
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 SureFlow 8681 Adaptive Offset Controller and exports what it actually has to Excel — free.

Questions about the TSI SureFlow 8681 Adaptive Offset Controller
How many BACnet points does the TSI SureFlow 8681 Adaptive Offset Controller have?
This list has 31 BACnet objects: 11 analog inputs, 15 analog values, 1 binary value, 1 device, 1 multi-state input, 2 multi-state values. The exact set on a given unit depends on its firmware, installed options and configuration.
Which TSI SureFlow 8681 Adaptive Offset Controller BACnet points are writable?
18 of the 31 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. The source has no read/write column, so this is inferred from object type.
Where is the official TSI SureFlow 8681 Adaptive Offset Controller BACnet documentation?
The source is SureFlow Adaptive Offset Controller Models 8681/8681-BAC Operation and Service Manual (P/N 1980476), revision Revision E, February 2013, published free by TSI at https://tsi.com/getmedia/117e0f6f-b829-4b6b-a0d7-db6fc17437f1/1980476d-8681?ext=.pdf.
What are the minimum BACnet points to integrate the TSI SureFlow 8681 Adaptive Offset Controller?
Start with BV 1 Occ/Unocc Mode (0 = occupied, 1 = unoccupied); MV 2 Emergency Mode (1 = exit, 2 = enter emergency mode, 3 = normal); AV 2 Room Pressure Setpoint (Room pressure setpoint); AV 14 Temperature Setpoint (Occupied room temperature setpoint); AI 1 Room Pressure (Room differential pressure); AI 2 Supply Flow Rate (Supply airflow); AI 4 General Exhaust Flow Rate (General exhaust airflow); AI 6 Hood Flow Rate (Fume hood exhaust airflow); AI 8 Temperature (Room temperature); MI 1 Status Index (Alarm state; 1 = normal, 7 = emergency).
How do I enable BMS control of the TSI SureFlow 8681 Adaptive Offset Controller?
Occ/Unocc Mode (BV 1) switches between the occupied and unoccupied flow and temperature setpoints; Emergency Mode (MV 2) works like the EMERGENCY key.
How do I check these points on the real SureFlow 8681 Adaptive Offset Controller?
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.
