ISO 16484-5:2003(E)
Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 16484-5 was prepared by the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers
(ASHRAE) (as ANSI/ASHRAE 135-2001) and was adopted without modifications by Technical Committee
ISO/TC 205, Building environment design.
ISO 16484 consists of the following parts, under the general title Building automation and control systems:
 Part 1: Overview and definitions
 Part 2: Hardware
 Part 3: Functions
 Part 5: Data communication protocol
Further parts are under preparation.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 16484-5:2003(E)

Building automation and control systems —
Part 5:
Data communication protocol
1 Scope
This part of ISO 16484 defines data communication services and protocols for computer equipment used for
monitoring and control of heating, ventilation, air-conditioning and refrigeration (HVAC&R) and other building
systems. It defines, in addition, an abstract, object-oriented representation of information communicated
between such equipment, thereby facilitating the application and use of digital control technology in buildings.
The scope and field of application are furthermore detailed in Clause 2 of the enclosed ANSI/ASHRAE
publication.
2 Requirements
Requirements are the technical recommendations made in the following publication (reproduced on the
following pages), which is adopted as an International Standard:
ANSI/ASHRAE 135-2001, A Data Communication Protocol for Building Automation and Control Networks
The text on the back of the title page of the ANSI/ASHRAE standard and the policy statement on the last page
are not relevant for the purposes of international standardization.
International Standards cited in the text are the following:
ISO/IEC 7498 (all parts), Information technology — Open Systems Interconnection — Basic Reference
Model
ISO/TR 8509, Information processing systems — Open Systems Interconnection — Service conventions
ISO/IEC 8802-2, Information technology — Telecommunications and information exchange between
systems — Local and metropolitan area networks — Specific requirements — Part 2: Logical link control
ISO/IEC 8824 (all parts), Information technology — Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1): Specification
of basic notation
3 Revision of ANSI/ASHRAE 135
It has been agreed with the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers
(ASHRAE) that TechnicalCommittee ISO/TC 205 will be consulted in the event of any revision or amendment
of ANSI/ASHRAE 135. To this end, ANSI will act as a liaison body between ASHRAE and ISO.

deadlines are given at the back of this document and may be
obtained in electronic form from ASHRAE’s Internet Home Page,
http://www.ashrae.org, or in paper form from the Manager of Stan-
dards. The latest edition of an ASHRAE Standard and printed cop-
ies of a public review draft may be purchased from ASHRAE Cus-
tomer Service, 1791 Tullie Circle, NE, Atlanta, GA 30329-2305. E-

SPECIAL NOTE
This American National Standard (ANS) is a national voluntary consensus standard developed under the auspices of the American Society of Heating,
Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE). Consensus is defined by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI), of which ASHRAE is a
member and which has approved this standard as an ANS, as “substantial agreement reached by directly and materially affected interest categories. This signifies
the concurrence of more than a simple majority, but not necessarily unanimity. Consensus requires that all views and objections be considered, and that an effort
be made toward their resolution." Compliance with this standard is voluntary until and unless a legal jurisdiction makes compliance mandatory through
legislation.
ASHRAE obtains consensus through participation of its national and international members, associated societies, and public review.
ASHRAE Standards are prepared by a Project Committee appointed specifically for the purpose of writing the Standard. The Project Committee Chair and Vice-
Chair must be members of ASHRAE; while other members may or may not be members of ASHRAE, all must be technically qualified in the subject area of the
standard. Every effort is made to balance the concerned interests on all Project Committees.
The Manager of Standards of ASHRAE should be contacted for:
 a. interpretation of the contents of this Standard,
 b. participation in the next review of the Standard,
 c. offering constructive criticism for improving the Standard,
 d. permission to reprint portions of the Standard.
DISCLAIMER
ASHRAE uses its best efforts to promulgate standards for the benefit of the public in light of available information and accepted industry practices. However,
ASHRAE does not guarantee, certify, or assure the safety or performance of any products, components, or systems tested, designed, installed, or operated in
accordance with ASHRAE’s Standards or Guidelines or that any tests conducted under its standards will be nonhazardous or free from risk.
ASHRAE INDUSTRIAL ADVERTISING POLICY ON STANDARDS
ASHRAE Standards and Guidelines are established to assist industry and the public by offering a uniform method of testing for rating purposes, by
suggesting safe practices in designing and installing equipment, by providing proper definitions of this equipment, and by providing other information that
may serve to guide the industry. The creation of ASHRAE Standards and Guidelines is determined by the need for them, and conformance to them is
completely voluntary.
In referring to this standard and marking of equipment and in advertising, no claim shall be made, either stated or implied, that the product has been approved
by ASHRAE.
