The BTL Testing Policies states (Section 3): \u201cThe BTL requires that products being tested for BTL Certification claim a Protocol Revision equal to or greater than a moving minimum. The minimum Protocol_Revision is determined each January 1st and is the highest Protocol_Revision which has been available in a BTL Test Plan <\/em><\/strong>for at least 4 years.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On January 1, 2024, the minimum Protocol_Revision will become PR_16. This does not apply to unchanged products applying for BTL Certificate Renewal Testing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Existing BTL Certifications and BTL Listings are not affected. However, if a product is updated and is submitted for re-testing with changed or new BACnet functionality, then the product must be PR_16 or higher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All products that are at their Recognized BACnet Testing Organization (RBTO) and are ready to begin testing<\/u><\/strong> before the end of 2023, may test at the current minimum Protocol_Revision (PR_15).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
