Introduction
This manual provides technical guidance for the installation, configuration and operation of the W-BACnet communication device. Designed to serve as a direct replacement for traditional cabling, this device enables W-BACnet communication over a wireless link.
The W-BACnet device maintains compatibility with standard BACnet and is intended for use in industrial automation, building management systems and other applications where BACnet is required. By eliminating the need for physical cabling, installation time and maintenance complexity are reduced while preserving the reliability and performance of a cabled counterpart.
This manual outlines the device’s features, technical specifications, setup procedures, and troubleshooting steps to ensure proper setup or integration into an existing W-BACnet network.
Product Overview
W-BACnet simplifies BACnet installations by replacing the control cable with a wireless connection. This significantly alleviates the downsides of running control cables, such as daisy-chaining, installation planning and troubleshooting.
W-BACnet is built on LumenRadio's MiraOS, which runs the MiraMesh network stack.
A W-BACnet unit can be configured either as a Gateway that is connected to a BACnet Client, or as a mesh node that is connected to one or more BACnet Servers. A W-BACnet network can consist of up to 100 mesh nodes.

Installed networks are not limited to an initial configuration and can be expanded or reduced as necessary. Additionally, problems with wireless connectivity (for example, increased radio noise in the area) can be remedied by repeater installation.

System Description
This section describes the W-BACnet system and its components, as well as the supported BACnet protocols and their features. It also includes an overview of the wireless communication technology used by W-BACnet.

W-BACnet Mesh Network
The W-BACnet Gateway is the central gateway/master/root device of a W-BACnet network. All wireless unicast (device-to-device) messages sent by mesh nodes must pass through this device before being forwarded to the destination mesh node.
Up to 50 BACnet MS/TP devices can be connected to the RS485 bus of the W-BACnet Gateway. However, because of the nature of MS/TP, the BACnet controller of a particular network can be connected to either the gateway or any W-BACnet device in a network.
Mesh Nodes, or Nodes, serve as subsidiary devices of a W-BACnet network. When sending data over the network, all unicast messages will be routed through the Gateway.
MiraMesh is the underlying wireless mesh networking technology which is responsible for delivering W-BACnet data wirelessly. MiraMesh is also responsible for dynamically changing the hopping path of data packets between nodes.
Once a mesh node joins the gateway, the gateway will send secure credentials that will be used once the network is switched to Secure Mode.
All network traffic is encrypted using AES-128 encryption, and the network credentials are unique to each gateway. This means that even if two W-BACnet networks are in close proximity to each other, they will not interfere with each other as they will be using different network credentials and encryption keys.
Commissioning Network
A W-BACnet network is comprised of one Commissioning Gateway and up to 100 Commissioning Mesh Nodes. Nodes in Commissioning Mode will advertise with pre-determined network credentials, meaning they can hear the Gateway advertising its existence, allowing mesh nodes to form a network.
Secure Network
Once a Commissioning Network is switched to Secure Mode, all connected nodes will reboot synchronously, and the secure network credentials unique to the gateway will be used. A secure network is comprised of one gateway, and one or more mesh nodes, all of which have been commissioned/secured, and are thus using network credentials and encryption keys unique to the gateway of that network.
Autobaud (Automatic Baudrate Detection)
Autobaud can be enabled by flipping DIP switch 4 to the ON position.
When autobaud is enabled, the W-BACnet device will attempt to infer the baudrate of the connected BACnet device. This is done by switching between all supported baudrates, one at a time, and listening for messages on the bus.
If more than three messages are successfully put on the bus by the local BACnet device on a particular baudrate, that baudrate will be chosen.
Currently, baudrates 115200, 76800, 57600, 38400, 19200, and 9600 will be explored by our implementation of autobaud in firmware version 4.0.0 and above. If the user desires a higher baud rate, it is suggested that they set that on the gateway.
If autobaud fails, which happens when no baudrate has been successfully found during three iterations of attempted discovery for each baudrate, then the local or gateway config will be used, depending on the state of DIP switch 5. If DIP switch 5 is off, then the gateway’s config will be used. Otherwise, the local configuration will be used.
On failure to detect valid traffic using autobaud, the gateway settings will be tried if local configuration is not enabled on the [dip switches](#Dip Switches). If local configuration is enabled, autobaud will be retried until the baudrate can be deduced.
Config Distribution
The gateway can distribute its bus settings (baud rate, etc) to the rest of the nodes in the network.
Unless "Use local configuration" is enabled on the [dip switches](#Dip Switches) of the node, the gateway configuration will be used.
If autobaud is enabled, autobaud will be attempted first.
Firmware-Over-The-Air (FOTA)
Starting with firmware version 3.0.0, W-BACnet supports Firmware-Over-The-Air (FOTA) updates. FOTA allows the gateway to distribute new firmware to all nodes in a secure W-BACnet network without any user interaction. This means that when a new firmware version is released, the gateway can automatically update all nodes in the network to the latest firmware version without the need for a technician to manually update each node.
Update the gateway to the latest firmware version, and the gateway will take care of updating all nodes in the network.

{{/warning}}
Device Connection
Switch the W-BACnet device into Bluetooth mode by triple-pressing the button. When the device successfully enters Bluetooth mode, the middle LED will flash blue. The device will remain in Bluetooth mode for a period of 3 minutes.
Launch the W-BACnet Application
Open the application on your mobile device. The app will automatically scan for a device.
{{#note}}The W-BACnet app only finds W-BACnet devices. Ensure you are using the correct app, as the W-Modbus and W-BACnet apps are separate applications.{{/note}}
When a device is found, the Available Devices screen is shown.
Here you can select the device you wish to connect to. You can also press Identify to confirm the correct device, which will blink all LEDs white as confirmation.
If no device is found, repeat step 1 and follow the instructions on the app to repeat the scan.
Firmware update in app
Start update
If there is a firmware update available for the connected device, the application will provide an onscreen option to start the update. The app will display the progress in real time.
Complete update
If an update was performed on a gateway device the update will automatically propagate to all nodes in the network. Typically this propagation takes 30 minutes to 2 hours, but can take longer depending on the size of the network.
Switching Update Channel
If updating to beta firmware, you need to switch the update channel.
When the app is starting, tap the LumenRadio logo 8 times and select Beta mode.
Beta Mode will be shown in red in the top right corner.
Commissioning
The commissioning process allows you to add W-BACnet nodes to a gateway's network using the mobile app. Follow the steps below to commission your devices.
The gateway should be in secure mode before commissioning devices to it using the mobile app. Put the gateway in secure mode using the three-pole-switch.
Step 1
Ensure that the device is powered on, within range and is in bluetooth mode. To activate bluetooth mode push the button on the device three times.
Step 2
After successful connection, all advertising bluetooth devices are shown. Tap the Commission button to commence commissioning.
Step 3
This screen only shows gateways in bluetooth advertising mode. Therefore, ensure that the desired gateway is powered on, within range and is in bluetooth mode by pressing its button three times. Tap Select on the desired gateway to proceed.
Step 4
On this screen it is recommended the gateway be given a meaningful name if necessary. When you are ready, tap Continue.
Step 5
On this screen, devices in bluetooth mode that are within range are listed. Devices can be filtered based on their name or device ID. When the desired device has been located, tap Add to add the device to the currently selected gateway.
Step 6
A progress indicator will be shown while the device is added to the network. After the device is added it will no longer be in bluetooth mode and will therefore not show in this list unless its button is pressed three times.
Saved Gateways
Gateways that have been previously connected are automatically saved so you don’t need to establish a new gateway connection each time you commission additional devices. If needed, saved gateways can be removed from the list of available gateways shown in Step 3.
Removing Commissioned Devices
To remove a commissioned device from a gateway’s network, follow Steps 1–5. When you reach Step 5, place the device into Bluetooth commissioning mode. It will appear in the list of advertising devices (use the search function if needed) with an available Remove option. Once removed, the device will automatically decommission itself from the current network and return to Bluetooth advertising mode.
Nodes can also be decommissioned using the push button on the device.
Network Map
The network map provides a visual representation of all W-BACnet devices
connected to a gateway. This feature enables the viewing of device
connections to assist with understanding their relationships within the
network.
Network Map Overview
The network map is presented as a hierarchical tree structure where
parent devices appear at the top level with child devices indented
beneath them to illustrate a direct connection. Sibling devices — those
sharing the same parent — are displayed at the same indentation level.
An example of a network map is displayed below.
In the picture above, the gateway is titled "BGW6" and has 27 mesh nodes as children.
The children are named "WBN-ED52", "WBN-A842" and so on. Both WBN-ED52 and WBN-A842 are directly connected to the gateway, making them siblings in the network map. WBN-A842 has one mesh node as a child.
PDR
The hexagon to the immediate left of a node's
name displays a number which indicates the packet delivery rate (PDR) from the gateway to that node.
In the picture above, WBN-ED52 has a PDR of 95% while WBN-A842 has a PDR of 91%.
The color of the hexagon is determined by the PDR, with green indicating a strong connection (PDR >= 99%), amber indicating a moderate connection (PDR >= 94% and < 99%), and red indicating a weak connection (PDR < 94%).
RS485 Status and Address
The RS485 hexagon at the bottom right of the node indicates that
the node has a connected device on the local bus.
In the picture, all the nodes have a connected device
as indicated by the green RS485 hexagon. The hexagon's color will be red for
a node with no connected device.
The ID displayed at the bottom left of the node is the BACnet address of the devices connected on the local bus. In the picture, the gateway has a device with address 91, while the node WBN-ED52 has two local devices connected, with address 72 and 97.
Identify and rename buttons
The buttons to the right of the device name are used for renaming the device and identifying.
The Identify button
will cause the device to blink all LEDs white as confirmation. When you have identified the device, press the button to make the blinking stop.
The Rename button
will rename a node. See below for more details on renaming devices.
Missing PDR values
In this picture, some of the nodes ("WBN-CD37", "WBN-D493" and "WBN-ED52") have yet to calculate a PDR and send to the gateway.
One node has firmware older than 3.0.0, which only displays limited information in the network map.
Renaming a Gateway/Node
Follow these steps to rename a node within the network map:
Connect to a gateway
Connect to the app and open the network map as described above.

Mobile App Troubleshooting
If firmware update via the app fails or an error occurs:
- Ensure the device is within range and connected.
- If issues persist, restart the app and target W-BACnet device and try again.
Range Test Mode
Starting with firmware version 4.2.1, there is a range test mode that can be enabled on W-BACnet devices using the mobile app. This mode allows you to test the wireless range and signal strength of your W-BACnet devices.
This test is intended to validate the range of a specific point-to-point connection. It can also be used to validate range for a full mesh system.
Note that all application traffic (BACnet or Modbus) will be blocked during the test.
Activating Range Test Mode
In order for the range test to work, you need to commission the network first.
- Connect to the gateway using the mobile app.
- Tap the settings icon to the top right of the screen.
- Tap on the Range Test option.
- Tap the Range Test toggle switch.
This will put the gateway in range test mode.
Then connect to the node you intend to test with the mobile app and activate range test on the node following the steps above but for step 1, connect to the desired node instead of the gateway.
The devices will restart, and the node will flash yellow on the first LED (left / top) until it has rejoined the network.
A white LED on the third LED on the gateway will indicate that the gateway is in range test mode.
Once connection is established, the first LED will indicate the Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR) as in a normal network (green, yellow, red) and the third LED will indicate latency (green, yellow, red). The middle LED will indicate when a test packet is being sent.
Interpreting the results
- A green PDR LED and a green latency LED indicate a good connection.
- A yellow PDR LED and/or a yellow latency LED indicates a fair connection that may be sufficient for a production environment, but could potentially cause issues in more demanding applications.
- A red PDR LED and/or a red latency LED indicate a weak connection.
Restoring from Range Test Mode
Activate Bluetooth on the test devices and deactivate range test. Do not forget that the gateway also needs to be restored.
Device Diagnostics
For support and troubleshooting, the mobile app has the ability to retrieve diagnostic information from a currently connected device.
How to retrieve diagnostics
To access this feature, follow the steps below:
- Connect to the device using the mobile app.
- Tap the settings icon to the top right of the screen.
- Tap the Diagnostics option.
- Tap the Get Diagnostics button.
Radio planning
This section provides guidelines for planning the radio communication aspects of a W-BACnet network. It covers topics such as wireless design considerations, installation and placement of wireless devices and external antennas, and factors to consider for larger projects.
Wireless design considerations
W-BACnet is designed to be simple to use without the need for extensive planning. However, it is still recommended to consider the placement of your gateway and node units before installation. It is also a good idea to bring an additional W-BACnet device to use as a repeater, in case any nodes experience communication issues in the network.
{{#warning}}
In many cases wired W-BACnet devices are
placed in metal enclosures. This will effectively block the wireless
signal. In these cases, an external antenna should be used and placed on
the outside of the metal enclosure.
{{#note}}Note that only the DIN Rail supports external antennas, and it is not recommended to use a Compact or Wall Mount product inside a metal enclosure.{{/note}}
{{/warning}}
Installation and Placement of Wireless Devices and External Antennas
A consistent, high-quality wireless network is essential for maintaining a stable BACnet system. Follow the guidelines below to optimize performance.
- Clearance: Maintain at least 3/4 of an inch of unobstructed space around the antenna — avoid contact with cables or other objects that could disrupt the radiation pattern and reduce range.
- Height: Install devices or external antennas at least 1.5 m (5 ft) above floor level.
- Cable and connector handling: Ensure all connectors and cables are properly secured. Antenna cables are sensitive; avoid excessive bending or tight loops both during installation and in final placement.
- Metal Interference: Do not install inside a metal enclosure or where the device is surrounded by metal objects.
- Moisture & Snow: Water significantly attenuates wireless signals. For outdoor installations, use antennas that cannot be covered by snow buildup — see Outdoor Antenna Guidelines for details.
Refer to the Antennas section for more information regarding external antennas.
For larger projects it is worth considering a couple of factors.
- If you have more than 25 BACnet devices that require a fast response rate, consider splitting the network into two or more networks. You can follow this set-up guide for each network.
- If you have longer distances outdoors or many walls or floors to penetrate, you need to estimate the range. For this purpose, our wireless range calculator can be used.
Installation Guidelines
Example Installations
When installing larger W-BACnet networks, physical network planning is important. Try to avoid bottleneck nodes and consider placing repeaters if the signal seems to travel a long distance or through difficult obstacles.
❌ A bad installation does not have alternate mesh pathways
✅ A good installation has good node density to allow for multiple mesh pathways
Electrical Cabinets
DIN Rail devices are designed for mounting inside electrical cabinets, with an external antenna placed OUTSIDE the enclosure using an antenna extension cable to ensure optimal wireless performance. Using the standard antenna inside a metal enclosure will significantly reduce the wireless range and is not recommended.
Indoor Installations
For indoor installations, any of the available form factors may be used. Refer to the Wireless design considerations and Radiation pattern sections to determine which product best fits your specific application and performance requirements.
Outdoor Installations
Place your device inside a suitably rated IP enclosure to protect it from dust, moisture, and other environmental conditions. If you are using a metal enclosure, ensure that the antenna is mounted outside the casing to prevent signal loss caused by metal shielding. In such metal-case installations, a DIN rail version of the device should be used to ensure proper mounting, grounding, and overall system reliability.
Refer to the Wireless design considerations and Radiation pattern sections to determine which product best fits your specific application and performance requirements.

Gateway & Node selection
Gateway Selection
Choose either a DIN rail or a Wall mount W-BACnet device to be the Gateway for your wireless network. You should have only one Gateway per network.
Node selection
Any W-BACnet device — Compact, DIN Rail, DIN Rail Pro, Wall Mount, or Wall Mount Pro — can serve as a node in the network. Nodes without a BACnet device connected function as repeaters, helping to extend radio coverage and improve overall wireless network health.
Setup Guide
This section provides a step-by-step guide for setting up a W-BACnet network. It covers the initial configuration of W-BACnet devices, connecting to BACnet Clients and Servers, and troubleshooting common issues during the setup process.
Setup Guide
This guide walks you through installing the W-Modbus Solar Kit. The kit is pre-paired and pre-configured — each unit is labelled GATEWAY or NODE and no commissioning is required out of the box.
Kit contents
The kit contains:
- 2× W-Modbus DIN rail (pre-configured)
- 2× 24VDC PSU
- 2× 1.8 dBi outdoor antenna
- 2× RP-SMA to N-type connector cable
1. Plan the placement of the two units
Place one LumenRadio unit at the inverter (GATEWAY) and the other at the smart meter (NODE). Make sure there is clear line of sight between the two antennas — this replaces the cable run between the inverter and smart meter.
If line of sight is obstructed, a repeater can be added (see the repeater step at the end of this guide).
Pre-installation Requirements
Prerequisites
- Ensure power is disconnected before installation
- Verify BACnet network requirements. Refer to [Application Guide](#Application Guide).
- Check environmental conditions. Refer to [Wireless design considerations](#Wireless design considerations).
Safety Considerations
- Always disconnect power before installation
- Follow local electrical codes
- Use appropriate PPE during installation
Cabling requirements
RS485 networks use shielded, twisted-pair cable with impedance
between 100 and 130 ohms. Foil or braided shielding is acceptable.
The DIN rail has a built-in 120Ω EOL (End-of-Line) resistor, which can not be disabled.
DIN rail Specific Requirements
- Use standard 35mm DIN rail
- Ensure proper rail mounting
- Allow space for cable management
{{#warning}}
POWER AND RS485 CIRCUIT CAUTION
W-BACnet uses a half-wave rectified circuit. It should not share a VAC transformer with a device using full-wave rectified circuit.
The same VAC transformer can be used for W-BACnet and other device(s) only under the following conditions:
- The other device(s) are half-wave rectified.
- All power connections must have the same polarity. The ”+” terminal of W-BACnet must not be connected to the ”–” terminal of another device.
{{/warning}}
2. Install the GATEWAY at the inverter
Mount the unit labelled GATEWAY next to the inverter. Connect the 24VDC power supply and the RS485 cable (+ and −) to the inverter, making sure the antenna sits outside any metal cabinet and has clear line of sight to the node antenna. Power on the gateway.
Physical Setup
1. Confirm that the W-BACnet unit has no visible damage.
2. Mount the unit
The DIN rail has a clip-on mounting. Place it onto the DIN rail.
2B. (OPTIONAL). Install an external antenna.
See [Antenna Installation Instructions](#Antenna installation instructions)
3. Connect the power supply and the BACnet device to the W-BACnet unit
4. Ensure that the W-BACnet unit and its wiring are securely mounted, and that the LEDs turn on.
6. Set the baud rate on the Gateway
W-BACnet end-user products ship by default with baud rate
9600, no parity and 1 stop bit. This can be changed using the dip
switches on the product.
The Gateway will send its bus settings to the
nodes of the network, which will be used by all nodes except those that
have activated local bus config (dip switch 5 is on) or [autobaud](#Autobaud (Automatic Baudrate Detection)) (dip switch 4 is on).
The Compact will always try to detect the baud rate using [autobaud](#Autobaud (Automatic Baudrate Detection)) and as a fallback try the gateway's baud rate.
In other words, the system is baud rate independent, and you can mix baud rates in the system if you desire.
3. Install the NODE at the smart meter
Mount the unit labelled NODE next to the smart meter. Verify the switch is set to NODE, then connect the 24VDC power supply and the RS485 cable (+ and −) to the smart meter. Power on the node.
Physical commissioning installation video guide
4. Verify RS485 settings
The default RS485 settings are 9600 baud, no parity, 1 stop bit. Make sure the inverter and smart meter are configured with the same settings.
Physical Commissioning Method (Step‑by‑Step)
Before proceeding, complete the [Physical Setup](#Physical Setup) steps.
1. Set up the gateway in the system for commissioning
- Use the dip switches on the Wall mount or Din Rail unit you wish to use as the gateway to set it to Gateway Commissioning Mode.
- Allow all the commissioning mesh nodes join this commissioning Gateway.
2. Install the nodes
- All devices are shipped in mesh‑commissioning mode and are ready to join a new network.
- Nodes that are prepared for commissioning display a sweeping blue LED pattern.
- In case the device isn't in commissioning mode (i.e., you do not see the sweeping blue LEDs), press the button for 10 seconds.
- The center LED will turn blue, indicating the device has been uncommissioned; it will then show the sweeping blue LED sequence and be ready to join a new network.
- Place the gateway (GW) into commissioning mode and wait for the nodes to receive the secure network credentials required for permanent installations.
- Once a node successfully receives these credentials, all its LEDs will blink green.
- After this, the system is ready to transition to secure network mode.
- When the gateway is switched to secure mode, each node will blink yellow on all LEDs and then reboot to rejoin the gateway under secure operation.
3. At the gateway, switch the network to Secure Mode
- Once you have made sure all your nodes are in the network you can validate in your W-BACnet controller that you see all your W-BACnet devices.
- If you are missing any then you can validate the installation in the mobile app.
- Once all W-BACnet devices are available for you in the W-BACnet controller then flip the 3 state dip switch to secure mode.
- The network will now reboot.
- The network will reform, which will take up to 15 min.
- Wait at least 5 minutes before checking the mobile app to see the network reforming progress.
- If, after following the steps, all devices are not appearing in the network, see troubleshooting guide.
Mounting instructions
The DIN rail has a clip-on mounting. Place it onto the DIN rail.
Mobile App Commissioning Installation Guide
Mobile App Commissioning Method (Step‑by‑Step)
Before proceeding, complete the [Physical Setup](#Physical Setup) steps.
1. Set up the gateway for your system in secure mode
Use the dip switches on the Wall mount or Din Rail unit you wish to use as the gateway to set it to Gateway Secure Mode.
2. Select the Gateway to join
- Download the latest version of the W-BACnet app.
- Put the gateway device into BLE advertising mode by pressing the button 3 times.
- Open the app and tap the Commission button — all available gateways will be listed.
- Use the Identify button to confirm the correct gateway device which gives confirmation by blinking all LEDs white.
- Select your gateway and rename it to something meaningful that references the installation site.
- The app will display a list of mesh nodes available to join the selected gateway's network.
- To exit the commissioning process at any time, press the End Commission button in the bottom of the screen.
3. Nodes identification
- All devices are shipped in mesh commissioning mode and will display a sweeping blue LED pattern, indicating they are ready to join a new network.
- If a device is not in commissioning mode (i.e., no sweeping blue LEDs), press and hold the button for 10 seconds until the center LED turns blue, then release. The device has now been uncommissioned and will display the sweeping blue LED pattern, ready to join a new network.
- In the W-BACnet app commissioning screen, use the Identify button in the app to confirm the correct node — the device will blink all LEDs white as confirmation.
4. Sect the Nodes to add to the Gateway
- In the W-BACnet app commissioning screen, tap the Add button to add the node to the gateway selected in the previous step.
- Once added, the device tile disappears from the commissioning screen.
- The node will reboot and the top LED will flash yellow, then change to a solid color indicating connection strength to its parent: red (weak), yellow (moderate), or green (strong).
- Ideally, all nodes should show a solid green or yellow top LED. If you see red, consider adding repeaters, using external antennas, or repositioning the device to improve signal strength.
- Repeat this process for all nodes intended for this gateway.
- To exit the commissioning process at any time, press the End Commission button at the bottom of the screen.
5. Verify your installation
- Put the gateway device into BLE advertising mode by pressing the button 3 times.
- Open the app and connect to the correct gateway from the list of available devices.
- The device home screen will display the total number of wireless devices in the network — verify that this matches your expected count.
- Tap the Network map button to view all connected mesh devices and their BACnet devices connected on the RS‑485 port.
5. Check the LED indicators
Verify the LED status on both units:
- GATEWAY: solid magenta on the left LED, blinking green on the right LED, fast blinking blue/green in the middle.
- NODE: solid green on the left LED, blinking green on the right LED, fast blinking blue/green in the middle.
Wiring

The DIN rail has a built-in 120Ω EOL (End-of-Line) resistor, which can not be disabled.
Swap antenna
{{#warning}}
The antenna connector does not have any ESD protection. Make sure to not touch the antenna connector before you have installed the antenna.
{{/warning}}
- Identify the external antenna port on your device and remove the stock antenna by turning it counter-clockwise.
- Align the antenna cable connector with the device's antenna port. Gently push and twist the connector clockwise until it is securely fastened.
{{#warning}}
Avoid bending or twisting the antenna cable, as this can damage the internal wiring and degrade performance.
{{/warning}}

- Verify signal strength after installation and adjust antenna placement as needed.
6. Connect with the W-Modbus app
Download and open the W-Modbus app (available on Google Play and the App Store). Press the button on the GATEWAY 3 times to make it discoverable, then tap Connect in the app to connect to the device.
7. Confirm Solar Mode is enabled
In the connected device view, confirm that Solar Mode is toggled on and that the app shows 1 wireless device and 1 Modbus device.
8. Verify the installation in the Network map
Open Network map to verify the installation. The PDR hexagon for the node should be green or yellow. If it is red, a repeater is needed — skip the repeater step below if the PDR hexagon is green.
9. Add a repeater (only if needed)
Only required if no connection is established within 5 minutes or the PDR hexagon is red. First check the antenna mounting.
To commission a repeater:
- Press the GATEWAY button 3 times.
-
Tap Commission in the app, select your gateway and optionally rename it.
-
Power on the repeater node — the LEDs should sweep blue — then tap Add to add it to the gateway.
-
Confirm in the Network map that the repeater has connected and that the node at the smart meter now shows a better (yellow or green) PDR.
{{#note}}
Because it is a repeater, its right LED will be solid red.

Application Guide
This section includes guidelines for selecting the appropriate W-BACnet product for specific applications and use cases. It also provides information on how to optimize the performance of W-BACnet devices in various environments and scenarios.
Application Guide
The W-Modbus Solar Kit is designed for solar applications where the cable run between the inverter and the smart meter is impractical, expensive, or impossible to route. The two pre-paired DIN-rail units replace that cable with a robust wireless link that uses Solar Mode to handle the fast poll rates typical of solar inverters.
When to use the Solar Kit
Use the Solar Kit when:
- The inverter and the smart meter are physically separated and a wired RS485 connection is not practical.
- The inverter polls the smart meter at a very fast rate (response window of 100 ms or less).
- You need a plug-and-play wireless replacement that requires no commissioning out of the box.
Best Practice Settings
This section includes best practice settings for BACnet MS/TP communication and BACnet client configuration when using W-BACnet products.
The table contains high level setting recommendations, see below for a more in-depth discussion about how to tune parameters.

In-depth guide for MS/TP settings
Baudrate
Supported baud rates are 9600, 19200, 38400, and 76800 when set via DIP switches.
[Autobaud](#Autobaud (Automatic Baudrate Detection)) is supported and additional baudrates of 57600 and 115200 are supported when using autobaud.
The baud rate is configured via the DIP switches on nodes and gateway
devices, refer to [Dip Switches](#Dip Switches) section.
Note that parity and start/stop bits are not configurable in MS/TP.
When transferring larger sized files and objects, using higher baudrates
can help in minimizing the actual response time, as the same data needs
to be sent on both the client and server sides.
Request frequency
It's recommended that requests be issued no faster than the request
timeout multiplied by the number of request retries. This avoids having
multiple requests outstanding at any one time. As network sizes scale,
this tuning is critical to having stable MS/TP communication.
For example, if the client APDU Timeout is 3 seconds and the number of
APDU retries is 3, then the recommended polling or request frequency
should be no faster than 9 seconds.
Actual response time
The actual response time depends on the wireless mesh network
parameters, like number of hops, number of packet transmissions and the
radio environment of the installation. Actual response time is the
cumulative sum of the time delta for picking the response at the server
device, time delta of wireless latency and time delta for writing the
response at the client.
Tactual_response = Tserver_side_response + Twireless_latency +
Tclient_side_response
As an example, depending on the network configuration, MSTP
configuration and radio environment, responses to requests have been
observed to take anywhere from 100ms to 5 seconds.
Response wait time
The response wait time defines how long the device waits for an
acknowledgement or response before considering the request failed. The
response wait time should be tuned so as to account for wireless latency
and packet retransmissions.
As a recommendation, the response wait should be set to 10s when
initially setting up the wireless network and can then be optimised to a
lower value based on the responsiveness from BACnet servers.
BACnet client setup
APDU timeouts
Confirmed requests (confirmed APDU) have timeouts and retries. The total
time for a request to fail due to a timeout is calculated by multiplying
the APDU Timeout by the Number of APDU Retries.
For example, if the client APDU Timeout is 3 seconds and the number of
APDU retries is 3, then the total timeout is 9 seconds.
Just like request frequency, it's recommended that APDU timeout be tuned
given many considerations such as total network size and configuration.
A rule of thumb for wired networks is a 10 second timeout with 3 retries
on a network of 25 BACnet devices. Given this, our recommended APDU
Timeout is 10 seconds and the Number of APDU Retries is 3.
Segmentation
The BACnet protocol allows for segmentation of messages that cannot
fit into a single response packet. The W-BACnet product supports a max
segment size of 480 bytes only. For example, if a response requires 1024
bytes to respond, yet the maximum frame (APDU) size supported by that
server is 480 bytes, then that response can be broken into "chunks" or
segments to fit the maximum supported frame size. In this example, the
response would require 3 segments.
Each segment requires its own timeout and this timeout is configurable
in BACnet clients.
Segment timeouts
Segment timeout is the time that a client device waits to receive a
single segment of segmented response. Our recommended APDU Segment
Timeout setting is 5 seconds, this value can be optimized based on the
responsiveness of the BACnet server devices.
Wireless Considerations
For stable and responsive wireless BACnet MS/TP communication in larger networks, the following performance requirements should be met:
- ≥ 95% (PDR) for every node in the Network Map for stability. See [Mobile App](#Mobile App) section.
- ≤ 25 Wireless W-BACnet devices if fast response/rapid control is required (especially without COV support).
Additional repeater-only nodes (no RS485 connection) may be added in addition to the 25 to improve mesh strength and coverage.
{{#NOTE}}Parameter tuning does not fix poor signal — improve placement and mesh coverage first.{{/NOTE}}
For more information, refer to [Wireless design considerations](#Wireless design considerations).
Wireless latency
When replacing wired media, by its nature, wireless media will
introduce latencies. This is true even in wired networks given any
amount of scaling, and similar to that scenario, communication
parameters must be tuned accordingly.
Average wireless latency per mesh node hop is about 20 ms, however, the
maximum latency per hop can be up to 50 ms. Mitigations for these latencies must be taken into account when
designing the wireless network and tuning network performance.
Solar Mode
Some solar inverters have a response wait time of 100 ms or less, which means a standard W-Modbus link does not have time to respond before the next poll is issued.
To handle this, the Solar Kit ships with Solar Mode pre-enabled. Solar Mode is a special W-Modbus mode of operation designed to work with inverters that poll the smart meter at a very high rate.
{{#warning}}
Solar Mode requires firmware version >= 4.2.0 on the kit, and the latest version of the W-Modbus app.
{{/warning}}
Verifying Solar Mode is on
Connect to the GATEWAY with the W-Modbus app and confirm the Solar Mode switch is toggled on from the app's home screen. If you ever need to toggle it, the gateway will restart and all nodes will rejoin the network, resulting in a brief temporary downtime.

Unsupported features
These are features that are not supported in the current firmware version of W-BACnet products.
BACnet Subordinate devices
BACnet subordinate/slave devices are not supported. Only BACnet devices that function as BACnet Masters on MS/TP networks are supported.
Identifying Subordinate Devices
Look at the MAC address range: subordinate/Slave Addresses usually have a MAC address of 128–254, while a master can have addresses: 0–127
Documentation Review: Check the Protocol Information Conformance Sheet (PICS) or BACnet Testing Laboratories (BTL) listing for device capabilities.
These device types are commonly found as subordinate devices, but this is not an exhaustive list and there may be exceptions:
- B-ASC (Application Specific Controller)
- B-SS (Smart Sensor)
- B-SA (Smart Actuator)
- B-ASC (Application Specific Controller)
BACnet extended frames
BACnet extended frames are not supported; only standard BACnet frames are supported.
Inverter and smart meter compatibility
Using the W-Modbus Solar Kit, there have been good results with many inverter and smart meter pairs that have a very fast poll rate. However, LumenRadio cannot guarantee functionality due to rapid firmware updates from solar inverter companies.
It is therefore recommended, if possible, to disable automatic updates on the inverter and smart meter, and update their firmware only if needed. There have been cases where inverter and smart meter firmware updates increase the polling rate further, breaking compatibility.
We maintain a list of tested inverter and smart meter combinations — please see the Solar Inverter and Smart Meter Compatibility List section for more information.
If you decide to test with combinations not on the compatibility list, or you find a previously working system has stopped working, please raise a support ticket.
RS485 defaults
The Solar Kit ships with the following RS485 defaults on both the GATEWAY and the NODE:
- Baud rate: 9600
- Parity: none
- Stop bits: 1
Make sure the inverter and smart meter are configured with the same settings.
Troubleshooting / FAQ
This section contains common troubleshooting steps and frequently asked questions.
Physical
None of the LEDs are blinking when powered on.
- Check if the supply voltage is within the specification. The voltage should be 12-24V DC or 24VAC and at least 0.5A current input.
- If the supplied input voltage is DC, check that the polarity is connected correctly.
- Check if the unit is in bootloader mode. Open nRF Connect app and check if the device shows up under 'scanner' tab with 'DFU' filter. If device shows up, follow the steps in Update Procedures. If not, try power cycling the unit and check again.
- If the issue persists, contact your distributor and raise a support ticket.
No RS-485 device detected
Red status LED indicates that no RS-485 device is detected. Check the following:
Verify polarity of RS485 connectors.
Check RS485 bus settings (baud rate, parity, stop bits)
If unknown baud rate, try enabling autobaud using the dip switch and check if the device is detected.
Some devices won't start passing tokens and responding to requests until they detect another W-BACnet device on the wireless network. Connect another W-BACnet device to the network and check if the device is detected.
Verify that the BACnet device is working as expected
Can the end-of-line terminal resistor be disabled?
No, it can not be disabled. The typical usage of the product is that the product is end of line.
Wireless
Nodes are not connecting to gateway
- Check if the nodes are in commissioning mode. If not, put them in commissioning mode and try again.
- Check if the gateway is in commissioning mode. If not, put it in commissioning mode and try again.
- Check if the gateway or nodes are in range test mode. If so, exit range test mode and try again.
- Check if the nodes are within range of the gateway. If not, move them closer to the gateway and try again. See radio planning for more information on range and placement of the gateway and nodes.
When I put the gateway back into commissioning mode, some nodes stay in secure mode.
- This is because the nodes didn't find the gateway in time for the gateway to tell them to switch back into commissioning mode.
- Put the gateway back into secure mode for 10 minutes, to allow for all the nodes to join the GW.
- Then switch the GW back to commissioning mode.
- Alternatively, each node can be manually put back into commissioning mode, refer to button functionality section for instructions on how to do this.
BACnet Specific
How long does it take to discover the MSTP device on the trunk?
- It takes the W-BACnet device a maximum of 20ms to discover a device. To scan through 127 devices, it takes 2-3 seconds.
- Ensure that the device is fully booted and has an active token passing before checking if the MSTP devices are discovered or not. Some devices require another W-BACnet device to be present on the wireless network before they start passing tokens and responding to requests.
Firmware Updates
This section describes the firmware update process for W-BACnet devices.
The latest firmware version for W-BACnet devices is 4.2.2.
Starting with firmware version 3.0.0, it is enough to update the gateway to the latest firmware version, and the gateway will take care of updating all nodes in the network using Firmware-Over-The-Air (FOTA).
{{#note}}On firmware 3.0.0 and above, the gateway will override your firmware update if you update only at the nodes, so it is recommended to update the gateway first. If you have updated the nodes before updating the gateway, simply update the gateway and the FOTA process will take care of the rest.{{/note}}
Checking Current Version
Via Mobile app
[See Mobile App section](#Mobile App)
Via LED lights
When the button is held for 15 seconds and then released as described in [Button Functionality](#Button Functionality), the LEDs will show the current
firmware version.
The version number is split into Major.Minor.Patch. As an example,
firmware version 3.3.2 has the Major version 3, Minor version 3 and
Patch version 2.
The version is shown on the LEDs by blinking the topmost LED in
blue one time for each increment of the Major version, the
second LED one time for each increment of the Minor version and the
third LED one time for each increment of the Patch version.
For 3.3.2, the top LED will blink 3 times, the second LED will blink 3
times and the bottom LED will blink 2 times.
Update Procedures
via Mobile app
[See Mobile App section](#Mobile App)
nRF Connect
{{#warning}}
Updating via the Mobile App is recommended, nRF Connect should only be used as a fallback if you are updating devices that have a firmware below 3.1.1, where the mobile app is not supported.
{{/warning}}
This method of updating the LumenRadio firmware requires you to first download the latest firmware from LumenRadio’s website.
If you are updating your devices from version 2.2.3 or below to version 3.0.0 or above, you will need to repeat this step for all devices in the network. If you are updating from version 3.0.0 or above to the latest version, you will only need to do this step once at the gateway.
