system.bacnet.writeRawMultiple

New in 8.1.32

This function is used in Python Scripting.

Description

This function is the bulk version of system.bacnet.writeRaw by writing properties to objects provided equal-length lists of object types, object instance numbers, property IDs, values, priorities, and property array indices. The system.bacnet.writeRawMultiple() function will accept Encodable values on the value parameter.

note

To use this function, the BACnet driver must be installed.

caution

Please use caution when interacting directly with any BACnet device, as writing to an object may have unintended consequences and could result in data loss.

Client Permission Restrictions

This scripting function has no Client Permission restrictions.

Syntax

system.bacnet.writeRawMultiple(deviceName, objectTypes, objectIds, propertyIds, values, [priorities], [propertyArrayIndices])

Parameters

Type	Parameter	Description
String	deviceName	Name of the configured BACnet/IP device instance to write from.
ObjectType	objectTypes	A list of ObjectType(s) for the object instance being written to.
Integer	objectIds	A list of object instance numbers to write to.
PropertyIdentifier	propertyIds	A list of PropertyIdentifier(s) for the object instances being written to.
Object	values	A list of values to write.
Integer	priorities [optional]	An optional list of priority levels to use when writing to commandable properties. All elements must be in the range [1..16]. Defaults to 8 for all properties when this parameter is omitted.
Integer	propertyArrayIndices [optional]	An optional list of array indices corresponding to array properties being written. None should be specified as an element when writing to the entire array property or if the property is not an array. Defaults to a list of None when this parameter is omitted.

Returns

No return value.

Code Examples

Writing with an Enumerated Property

### Writing with an enumerated property
### Note you can reference the id (int) or name (string) from system.bacnet.enumerated import DoorAlarmState
 
ot1 = system.bacnet.enumerated.ObjectType.accessDoor
pid1 = system.bacnet.enumerated.PropertyIdentifier.maskedAlarmValues

Writing with Property Array Indices

from system.bacnet.constructed import NameValue
from system.bacnet.primitive import UnsignedInteger
 
ot1 = system.bacnet.enumerated.ObjectType.integerValue
pid1 = system.bacnet.enumerated.PropertyIdentifier.tags
v1 = NameValue('I am', UnsignedInteger(0))
v2 = NameValue('writing', UnsignedInteger(0))
v3 = NameValue('values', UnsignedInteger(0))
 
system.bacnet.writeRawMultiple(
    deviceName="bacnet_device_2",
    objectTypes= [ot1, ot1, ot1],
    objectIds= [1, 1, 1],
    propertyIds= [pid1, pid1, pid1],
    values= [v1, v2, v3],
    propertyArrayIndices= [1, 2, 3])
