Building automation and control systems (BACS) — Part 6: Data communication conformance testing
This standard provides a comprehensive set of procedures for verifying the correct implementation of each capability claimed on a BACnet PICS including: (a) support of each claimed BACnet service, either as an initiator, executor, or both, (b) support of each claimed BACnet object-type, including both required properties and each claimed optional property, (c) support of the BACnet network layer protocol, (d) support of each claimed data link option, and (e) support of all claimed special functionality.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO
collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. International Standards are drafted in accordance with
the editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of any
patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or on
the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.
For an explanation of the voluntary nature of standards, the meaning of ISO specific terms and
expressions related to conformity assessment, as well as information about ISO's adherence to the World
Trade Organization (WTO) principles in the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) see
www.iso.org/iso/foreword.html.
This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 205, Building environmental design, in
collaboration with the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) Technical Committee CEN/TC
247, Building Automation, Controls and Building Management, in accordance with the Agreement on
technical cooperation between ISO and CEN (Vienna Agreement).
This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition (ISO 16484-6:2014), which has been technically
revised See the detailed list of changes in pages 724 to 728.
A list of all parts in the ISO 16484 series can be found on the ISO website.
Any feedback or questions on this document should be directed to the user’s national standards body. A
complete listing of these bodies can be found at www.iso.org/members.html.
