BACnet Stack

Chipkin offers a BACnet Stack (CAS BACnet Stack) that supports BACnet Revision 19 and is tested extensively at the annual BACnet Plugfest event. the BACnet is a software library that allows you to add a native BACnet interface to your embedded devices or applications.

Because we have also built the stack to be BACnet spec compliant (we do things according to the BACnet spec.), No device that used our BACnet stack has ever failed to receive the BTL Certification (BACnet International BLT) by the BACnet Testing laboratories. We do things the right way from the start! CONTACT US!

BACnet BTL Pre-Testing

Chipkin also provides Pre-BACnet BTL Testing Services. BACnet is not a simple protocol and requires extensive testing to ensure compatibility between devices.

Take it from us, we have been working with BACnet for 20+ years. Our BACnet Stack Resume includes 10+ years of development, 25,000+ commits, 50,000+ lines of code, 2,500 unit tests, 50+ devices using the stack and among other capabilities, 1,000,000+ device installations. We know what we are doing. On top of that, we are also part of the BACnet Testing Laboratory Working Group. Purchasing BACnet BTL Pre-Testing from us will save you thousands of dollars in mitigated errors and prevent delays. Let us handle the grunt work, BACnet Spec is complex and meeting all specifications error free is virtually unheard of. CONTACT US!
