## Usage
Add Node BACstack to your project by using:
``` sh
npm install --save bacstack
```
The API documentation is available under **[fh1ch.github.io/node-bacstack](https://fh1ch.github.io/node-bacstack)**.
### Features
The BACnet standard defines a wide variety of services as part of it's
specification. While Node BACstack tries to be as complete as possible,
following services are already supported at this point in time:

¹ Support implemented as Beta (untested, undocumented, breaking interface)
² Deprecated BACnet function, available for backwards compatibility
### Example
``` js
const bacnet = require('bacstack');
// Initialize BACStack
const client = new bacnet({apduTimeout: 6000});
// Discover Devices
client.on('iAm', (device) => {
console.log('address: ', device.address);
console.log('deviceId: ', device.deviceId);
console.log('maxApdu: ', device.maxApdu);
console.log('segmentation: ', device.segmentation);
console.log('vendorId: ', device.vendorId);
});
client.whoIs();
// Read Device Object
const requestArray = [{
objectId: {type: 8, instance: 4194303},
properties: [{id: 8}]
}];
client.readPropertyMultiple('192.168.1.43', requestArray, (err, value) => {
console.log('value: ', value);
});
```
