Show your building automation data to SNMP monitoring.
The MS0-BS does for a BACnet building automation system what the MS0-MS does for Modbus: it exposes BAS points to IT tools that only speak SNMP.
BACnet points, as SNMP objects.
Building automation runs on BACnet. Many NOCs and IT monitoring platforms only speak SNMP. The MS0-BS connects the two, so building data and alarms appear where IT already looks.
BACnet/IP and MS/TP
Connects to BACnet over Ethernet or over an MS/TP trunk at 9600–76800 baud.
SNMP for monitoring
BAS points and alarms become SNMP objects for your monitoring platform or NOC.
Up to 10 clients
Several monitoring tools can read from the same gateway.
Browser setup
Configured from a web browser. There is no vendor software to install.
Industrial build
DIN-rail housing rated −40°C to 85°C, with communication and power LEDs.
Pairs with the MS0-MS
Use the MS0-MS for Modbus equipment and the MS0-BS for BACnet, into the same NMS.
Building alarms in the NOC.
Best for surfacing BACnet building data and alarms in an SNMP monitoring platform or NOC.
Use it when the network operations team needs to see building conditions, such as cooling or environmental alarms, without access to the BAS itself.

One gateway per link, or one Pythia DM for the site.
A gateway is the right tool for one fixed connection between two systems. When a site has many devices in many protocols, the Pythia DM polls them all directly over BACnet/IP, Modbus/TCP, Modbus RTU, SNMP and more, adds alarms, trends and dashboards, and publishes everything to your BMS and NMS.
MS0-BS questions, answered.
What does the MS0-BS do?
It converts BACnet/IP and BACnet MS/TP to SNMP, so building automation points and alarms can be monitored by IT tools that only speak SNMP.
Does it support BACnet MS/TP?
Yes, at 9600 to 76800 baud, as well as BACnet/IP.
How many systems can read from it?
Up to 10 connected clients.
What if my equipment speaks Modbus instead of BACnet?
Use the MS0-MS, which converts Modbus RTU and Modbus TCP to SNMP.
How much does the MS0-BS cost?

Not the right conversion?
MS0-MB
Modbus RTU / TCP ↔ BACnet/IP
MS0-MS
Modbus RTU / TCP ↔ SNMP
MS0-MBT and MS0-MBT3
Modbus RTU ↔ Modbus/TCP
