Build BACnet Temperature Slack Alert Workflow

Build a building automation alert workflow from template #165: poll a BACnet analog input every minute and alert Slack when temperature exceeds thresholds.

What this template does

1. Every Minute — cron trigger.
2. Read BACnet Point — analog input present value.
3. Check Threshold — warn 26°C, critical 30°C.
4. Slack Alert — factory/building channel.

Step 1 — Load the template

1. Studio → Templates → search BACnet Temperature Slack.
2. Load template #165.

Step 2 — BACnet device

1. Set IP address, Device ID, object type/instance, and property ID.
2. Use your BMS documentation for correct object numbers.
3. See Direct connect vs Discovery — BACnet typically uses manual IP settings.

Step 3 — Thresholds and Slack

1. Tune warn/critical limits in Check Threshold.
2. Configure Slack webhook and message template.

Step 4 — Deploy

Run on a PC on the BACnet subnet or export runtime to the building controller gateway.
