### BACnet device tools and services The tools and services described below let you control or troubleshoot BACnet devices. To access the tools and services, click on the BACnet device on the WebCTRL® Network tree, then click Properties.
Tool | Description
--- | ---
Module Status | Generates a Modstat report. See Using a Modstat to troubleshoot your system.

BACnet device services Although the following BACnet device services can be used for Automated Logic® controllers, you should not need to use them for this purpose. Their primary target is a third-party device that supports these services.
Service | Description
--- | ---
Time Sync UTC Time Sync | Sends the site's local time to the BACnet device. Sends the Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) to the BACnet device. The device must be able to convert the time to its local time zone. NOTE Some devices support only one of the above time sync services.
Backup, Restore, and Abort | Executes a BACnet Backup or BACnet Restore service as defined by the BACnet standards. A message appears when the backup or restore is complete. Click Abort to stop a Backup or Restore. NOTE These services are vendor-specific and should be used with caution. A failed restore could make a device inoperable. Before using these on a device running in a live system, test them on the device during installation.
BACnet Password | Applies to Backup, Restore, Warmstart, and Coldstart. Enter your BACnet password if required by the BACnet device. This password is typically defined in a third-party tool.
Warmstart or Coldstart | Restarts the BACnet device. For a third-party device, see the manufacturer's documentation to determine the difference between these 2 services. For Automated Logic® controllers, these services are the same. These services will cycle the controller's outputs.
DCC | Use to stop or start the BACnet device's communication. Select one of the following options in the droplist, then click DCC.
| Enable | Starts the device's communication.
| Disable | Stops the device's communication for the amount of time that you enter in the Timeout field. See NOTE below.
| Disable Initiation | Stops the device from initiating communication for the amount of time that you enter in the Timeout field. See NOTE below. The device will continue to respond to communications from other devices.
