2.1 Intended use
The Smart Edge Gateway BECL/D.200.16 serves as protected, local network node between
bus system, such as BACnet, Modbus or KNX and the IP building network.
The device embeds openBOS®, the ABB operating system for Smart Buildings: a software
platform that establishes the link between any connected equipment of a building and any
software applications that will be used by building managers and/or building occupants.
Building edge connects any device of any brand having open and interoperable IP protocol such
as Modbus, KNX, BACnet and MQTT. It includes an embedded Edge Editor Tool to create the
database of your multiprotocol site.
The BECL/D.200.16 also serves as access point for Cloud platform ABB AbilityTM as well as
Clouds of third-party suppliers via openBOS as a Service (oBaaS).
The BECL/D.200.16 is a modular DIN-Rail component (MDRC) in Pro M-Design. The device is
intended for mounting in installation distributors on 35 mm mounting rails.
The intended use also includes adherence to all specifications in this manual.
2.2 Improper use
Each use not listed in Chapter 2.1 “Intended use“ on page 5 is deemed improper use and can
lead to personal injury and damage to property.
ABB is not liable for damages caused by use deemed contrary to the intended use of the

2.4 Cyber security
Industry faces intensifying cyber security risks. In order to increase stability, safety and
robustness in its solutions, ABB has formally established cyber security robustness testing as
part of the product development process.
The following measures are prerequisite for the safe operation of your system. ABB accepts no
liability for non-observance.
Access control and limitation
The careful isolation of the system against unauthorized access is the basis for every protective
concept. Only authorized persons (fitter, caretaker, tenant) are allowed physical access to the
IP network or bus system and its components. This also includes the device described in the
instruction manual.
The best possible protection of the IP or network media (LAN/WLAN) and the transfer node
must be guaranteed already during planning. Sub-distributions with fieldbus devices must be
lockable or be in rooms to which only authorized persons have access.
Bus cabling
■The ends of the bus cables must not be visible, i.e., they must not project out of walls or
channels, either inside or outside of the building.
■Bus cables in outdoor areas or in areas with limited protection represent an increased safety
risk. The physical access should be made exceptionally difficult.
IP Network
The local network represents a sensitive component for secure communication. That is why
unauthorized access to the local network should be prevented. The normal security
mechanisms for IP networks are to be used, e.g.:
■Secure encryption of wireless networks
■Use of complex passwords and protection of these against unauthorized persons
■Physical access to network interfaces (Ethernet interfaces) and network components
(router, switches) should only be possible in protected areas.
■MAC filter (table with certified device addresses)
Connection to the Internet or the local IP network
To prevent improper use, no router ports from the Internet into the building network or home
network are to be opened to the Smart Edge device. A VPN tunnel is suitable for safe remote
control.
The stable and reliable function of the device also depends on the reliability of the local IP
network to which the server is connected. For this reason, additional network components are to
be used to repel the DoS attacks (denial of service) from the Internet. Such attacks can
overload the local IP network or the individual components and make them inaccessible.

Safety
2CKA001473B5394
│7
Safety of user accounts
Set a strong access password during initial commissioning. Use passwords that you have
received from the administrator only for the first login.
Keep passwords secret and use a password manager with two-factor login as memory aid, e.g.,
Keypass.
2.4.1 Ports and services for supporting the main functionality
To support the main functionalities of the device, communication via specific ports and services
must be possible in your local network. Contact your network administrator to set up, if
necessary, the appropriate port sharing.
Attention!
Enabling the port increases the risk of cyber attacks.
–Assign only necessary enabling.
–Regularly check which ports are enabled for which purpose.
In the following table the TCP and UDP services listed on the device are summarized. That is
pure information and is what we are delivering with a new Building edge.
Nevertheless, installer or system integrator must check these standard ports are used locally
and update if any change. Edge Editor embeds all the functions to perform these actions.

4.3 Functions
4.3.1 Description of functions
The BECL/D.200.16 is a gateway that offers a safe and local access point via its publication
level to the field devices and to the Cloud platform ABB AbilityTM as well as to Clouds of third-
party suppliers.
The device includes openBOS® that establishes a direct communication between different bus
systems (e.g., BACnet, KNX, Modbus and MQTT) and consolidate the data from one or several
network devices into a single site ontology contextualizing information by buildings, floors, roofs,
façade, offices, …. All information is grouped in assets (Lamp, fan coil, …) and assets are
contextualized in Zones
openBOS® also includes basic automation function inside a building: scheduling, trending, and
alarming. The device is the used to program schedules on zones or assets, to parameter trend
logs and set alarm parameters on points.
The device basically makes possible the use of ABB or 3rd party software applications dedicated
to building execution or building occupants. It also makes possible the connection to a secure
Web API to get the building ontology and control command the equipment of the building,
manage the scheduling, trending, and alarming.
It embeds a Web software configuration tool to build the building ontology: the edge editor.
More information on the configuration can be found in the system manual.
Additional product features:
■Compatible with any product and manufacturer as long it uses a standard protocol such as
KNX net/IP, BACnet/IP, Modbus TCP/IP or MQTT
■Compatible with all above protocols and manages these protocols as a data server
■Manages schedules, alarms, and saves trend logs independent of protocol
■Includes the openBOS operating system and organizes information in a building ontology
based on rooms and zones
■offers a REST/JSON API of the entire function (openBOS as a Service: oBaaS) via a secure
and authenticated cloud connection to ABB Ability™
Building Operating System (BOS)
Most modern buildings have indeed an existing smart potential but are not unified. Designed
with sensor-rich environments, they have the capacity to run more efficiently and sustainably
than ever before while responding in real time to the needs of inhabitants. Current building
systems are operating in silos, solving tasks independently within their own systems and
building data models and APIs.
openBOS® ontology solves that problem by unifying the information and publishing it in a
simple and structured way. No need to parse several APIs of several building systems:
openBOS® offers a unified Cloud services API that describes a property, meaning one or a
collection of buildings in a single location.
The connection to the ontology is cyber-secure, API endpoints are self-explanatory, and objects
are non-technical and usage-oriented: you navigate in buildings, floors, offices, lamps, ... you
manage physical devices, physical points, assets of the building, ... you control the command
automation of the property: alarms, schedule and trending values. You also define the user
ecosystem, and everything is based on templates.
openBOS consists of three software layers: middleware(s), ontology and publication(s).

Product description
2CKA001473B5394
│14
Use of middleware:
•Uniformize data and independent of technology available for the ontology level
•Link with the field layer: a multi-protocol data server to read/write and subscribe to
changes of datapoint values coming from the networks
•Performs automation functions on the top of that data server: define schedules, alarms
and trend logs
•Embeds a unified datatype dictionary and is capable to convert from any type to the
other
•Is fully localized and auto adjust units depending on user location
The middleware contains a development kit to develop one's own data recording drivers
compatible with openBOS.
Use of ontology:
•Ontology is Combining data from one or several middleware levels
•Consolidation of data in a structured information model that is designated as ontology of
the building. This part is the central repository for the information.
•A site is composed of several buildings. Each building has roof(s), floor(s), facades,
parking(s), basements, ….
•Define the description of the assets in the building: the lamps, the buttons, the fan coils,
the sensors, ….
•Define the collection of users: property owner, property managers, facility managers,
tenants, visitors, … with their role and rights
•All information is tagged and explained with a published dictionary
Use of publication:
•Calling up information from the ontology and offers a Web API
•Can be local in the Product or in the Cloud
•Several ways to authenticate
•Extension with possible publication modules, e.g., Azure IoT, Brick, etc.
