BACnetAcknowledgeAlarm (FUN) ¶ FUNCTION BACnetAcknowledgeAlarm : IEC_BACNET_STATUS Sends an AcknowledgeAlarm request. Sends a message to the initiating device to acknowledge that the operator has seen and responded to the event notification that required the acknowledgment. This routine may acknowledge either Confirmed Event Notification or Unconfirmed Event Notification requests. This routine allows to control APDU properties like APDU length, segmentation and timeout for both request and response. This routine can execute asynchronously, i.e. this routine will return to the caller before the BACnet reply comes so that the application can keep running. In this case the response information will be received by the thread which is responsible for receiving asynchronous responses. An optional BACNET_SIMPLE_ACK_COMPLETE_CB routine, which is provided by the BACnet application, shall be used to process this information. If a number of asynchronous requests are sent, the responses shall be queued and identified by the transaction handles. If the application does not supply the BACNET_SIMPLE_ACK_COMPLETE_CB routine, then the BACnetAcknowledgeAlarm routine sends a request and waits for reply. InOut: Scope Name Type Comment Return BACnetAcknowledgeAlarm IEC_BACNET_STATUS A status indicating if the operation worked. Input pSourceAddress POINTER TO IEC_BACNET_ADDRESS If the BACnet application has only one device constructed and installed, this can be 0. In this case the MAC address of this device will be used.

This does not change global defaults or settings for the application APDU Properties. This argument may be 0. In this case APDU properties are used which were specified in the device object properties of the applications device which sends the request. pTransactionToken POINTER TO BACnetAsyncTransactionToken Transaction token of the asynchronous call - see BACnetAsyncTransactionToken . pError POINTER TO IEC_BACNET_ERROR A pointer to a structure to hold BACnet Error information. pError may be 0 if the application isn’t interested in detailed error information.

This routine allows to control APDU properties like APDU length and segmentation and timeout for both request and response. This routine can execute asynchronously, i.e. this routine will return to the caller before the BACnet reply comes so that the application can keep running. In this case the response information will be received by the thread which is responsible for receiving asynchronous responses. An optional BACNET_CHANGE_LIST_COMPLETE_CB routine, which is provided by the BACnet application, shall be used to process this information.
