Setting up actuator agent in volttron

I have read data from BACnet IP devices using Master Driver Agent. But now want to write back the set points using Volttron.

What I understand from reading documentation and seeing videos/presentations on Volttron, I have to use actuator agent for writing back. In BACnet registrty files, I have set the writeable values to TRUE.

Not able to configure it for writing back data.

How can I do this?

Thanks.

Assuming you already have a running VOLTTRON instance with a running Platform (Master) Driver and running BACnet driver w/ BACnet Proxy, the most basic steps are:

1. Install Actuator agent (the default config should work most of the time)
2. Send JSON-RPC request to actuator from requesting agent to schedule a time slot for the point
3. Send set_point JSON-RPC request to actuator during the scheduled time slot.
