ATA 878.1 - Attached Resource Computer Network. ARCNET is a deterministic LAN technology; meaning it's possible to determine the maximum delay before a device is able to transmit a message.
1.2.3 BACnet
Building Automation and Control Network; the common name for the communication standard ASHRAE 135. The standard defines methods and protocol for cooperating building automation device s to communicate over a variety of LAN technologies.
1.2.4 BACnet/IP
An extension of BACnet, Annex J, defines this mecha nism using a reserved UDP socket to transmit BACnet messages over IP netw orks. A BACnet/IP network is a collection of one or more IP subnetwor ks that share the same BACnet network number. See also "BACnet Broadcast Management Device".
