BACnetInstnumberToDeviceAddress (FUN)¶

FUNCTION BACnetInstnumberToDeviceAddress : IEC_BACNET_STATUS

Function retrieves the BACnet MAC address for an b LOCAL device instance.

This functionm is needed if the appication needs to know it’s own device address and how it needs to look if it should be reachable across BACnet networks. For e.g. the application needs to know it’s own address for an specific network because it needs to write an entry into some recipient list. NOTE: Do not mix b LOCAL and b REMOTE device instances here. The function which is needed for resolving b REMOTE instances is ::BACnetFindUpdateDeviceAddressBindings

Return: IEC_BACNET_STATUS
