menu in Telnet and follow the instructions below.

you want the NBC to use and hit enter.

8. BACnet Objects and Walker Labels
Each BACnet object has an “Object_Name” property. The NBC allows other BACnet
devices on the network to read and write the “Object_Name” of any BACnet-enabled Walker panel or point.
The NBC is configured to use the labels.txt file generated by Connect-2000 to
name all BACnet-enabled panels and points. To make use of this feature, the
user simply has to upload the labels.txt file to the NBC, and then reboot the NBC.
To upload a labels.txt file to the NBC, follow the instructions in the “Uploading
The bac.cfg File” section, replacing bac.cfg with labels.txt.
Once the upload is complete, you must reboot the NBC for the changes to take
effect.
You can also create or edit the labels file by hand. Use the labels.txt file generated
by Connect-2000 as a guide to proper format.
If another BACnet device changes the “Object_Name” of a BACnet-enabled
panel or point, this change will be reflected in the labels.txt file currently contained
in the NBC.
