Integration
With the advent of industry standard open protocols like BACnet and Modbus integration of various building services systems including HVAC, Lighting, Fire, CCTV and Access Control are possible without having to rely on propriety 3rd party gateways which can be costly to install and maintain.
Careful considerations at the design stage to which products can integrate together using open protocols is key to ensuring the system can be installed at a lower overall cost and provide real benefits to the client. Some examples of this include a single graphical interface to all the different systems being managed in the building, the same sensing devices being used across different systems, reduced network and cabling costs, lower staff training and maintenance costs.
