Banks

Banks 1.03 by the sz development is a specialized BACnet viewer designed to let engineers, facility managers, and system integrators interrogate BACnet devices across both BACnet/MSTP serial wiring and BACnet/IP Ethernet infrastructures. The lightweight utility opens a real-time window onto any compliant network, automatically enumerating controllers, gateways, and sensors while presenting their object properties, present-values, and status flags in a single, sortable grid. Users can toggle between MSTP and IP transports without restarting the program, making it equally useful for legacy RS-485 trunk diagnostics and modern IPv4/IPv6 subnet commissioning. Typical use cases include verifying that a newly installed VAV box is publishing the expected analog-input object, confirming that a boiler sequencer’s binary-output array matches the design database, or capturing a spontaneous COV notification for later forensic analysis. Because Banks exposes every standard object type—analog, binary, multi-state, calendar, schedule, notification-class, and more—it also serves as a quick compliance check during factory acceptance tests or as a teaching aid for BACnet protocol courses. The application writes no values to the field layer, so it can be left running on a laptop connected to an operational building network without risk of disturbing setpoints or sequences. Banks 1.03 is the first and therefore current release in the product line, requiring no supplemental libraries or runtime engines beyond the delivered executable. The software is available for free on get.nero.com, with downloads provided via trusted Windows package sources (e.g. winget), always delivering the latest version, and supporting batch installation of multiple applications.
