Integrator of Diverse Protocols: Open, Secure & Easy-to-Use Building Management Systems
- Integrated platforms with a uniform look for different building systems lowers the cost for training multiple users from different departments.
- A unified system allowing for one "command center" where centralized dispatching takes place for all types of building alarms.
- A true system integrator of diverse protocols, vendors, and disciplines as well as a temperature control contractor.
Enhanced Graphics: Easy interface use created by on-staff graphic team
- Client-specific customer graphics of building systems and equipment.
- Graphics placed into a web-based navigation platform makes use of the Building Management System as easy as surfing the web.
Enhanced Graphics: Critically important & customized for the end user
- Includes detailed two and three-dimensional building site and floor plan graphics.
- Highly detailed, richly textured 3-D equipment graphics with animated fans, dampers and valves – a ControNET standard.
- Realistic views of equipment provide operators with easy to understand information when trying to comprehend complex building systems and operations.
- A navigational toolbar allows immediate "one-click" access to other buildings or systems without having to back up through the navigational tree.
 
Home Page.
- As a navigational aid, building site overviews provide a "mouse-over" function to highlight the floor plan area to be accessed.
- Critical data points will be continuously visible in real time within the HTML frame on all screens.
 
Floor Plans.
- Detailed floor plans are created with a vector drawing program accurately depicting the actual building layout to include all rooms, walls, and hallways.
- Space sensors are placed in their actual locations and tagged with their real-time space temperature.
- Equipment floor plans too large to be practically shown with data points will provide a “mouse over” function to highlight the floor plan area to be accessed.
- Room numbers and/or names can be included at owner’s request.
 
Mechanical Systems.
- Detailed graphics for each mechanical system will include at minimum; AHUs, RTUs, HXs, CW Piping and Pumps, HW Piping and Pumps, TUs, and EFs.
- Mechanical systems include on-screen access to respective set-points, trend logs, and schedules.
- All time schedules will be setup as directed by the owner prior to final turnover.
 
Terminal Units.
- Terminal units such as reheat coils, booster coils and VAV boxes depict the actual configuration of the equipment controlled.
- Our team of graphic designers locate actual equipment configurations and/or take photos of installed equipment to create the graphical reproduction as near accurate as possible.
 
Tridium Based Standard/Custom Reports.
- Ability to collect data for any object and store it for future report use.
- Data collection is performed by log objects residing in the Network Area Controller (NAC) also known as a JACE Server.
- Standard report features that can easily be placed in a typical spread sheet such as Excel or move data via SQL or OBDC to an owner’s internal custom report.
Trending of all Data.
- Historical, Real-Time Trending and Graphing – standard tools provided for every ControlNET designed system.
- ControlNET provides log set-up for ALL points in the system.
- Operator can go to any data points within the data file from any screen.
- Operator can Point, Click, and Retrieve data then choose from a selection of chart styles in which to review it.
Event Alarm Notification and Actions.
- Ability to route any alarm condition to any defined user location whether connected to a local network remote via dial-up telephone connection, or wide-area network.
- Alarm generation is selectable for annunciation type and acknowledgement requirements including but not limited to: Alarm, Return to Normal, and Fault.
Remote Alarming & Paging: Built in to the Tridium System at no extra cost
- Easily e-mail complete alarm message to multiple recipients.
- E-mails can be sent to pagers, cell phones, PDAs, laptops and workstations with the ability to route and e-mail alarms based on; day of week, time of day and recipient.
Scheduling.
- Graphical Schedule Slider, a ControlNET custom feature, allows the operator to adjust time of day schedules by dragging the On Event slider.
- An unlimited number of On/Off events for each schedule which can be linked into a master/slave scheduling scheme.
- The ability to add, edit, or delete holiday and special event schedules.
- Lighting schedules linked to HVAC schedules via Tridium’s unified data base and feature packed scheduling tool.
Training.
- In-house Tridium Niagara certified engineers, trained by Tridium certified instructors, teach customers the proper operation of their ControlNET Tridium System.
- Our employees receive on-going training in our Kalamazoo, Michigan training facilities.
- Comprehensive internal customer training modules are provided for both customers and employees in our Kalamazoo, Michigan facilities.
- Weekly internal lunch-n-learn sessions are presented by our senior engineering staff to new as well as our experienced engineers on a variety of subjects.
Peer-to-Peer Communication.
- If the line of communication is severed, all components and controllers will continue to operate in a stand-alone mode.
- Re-initializing communication with the workstation occurs automatically once communication has been restored.
- All controllers operating upstream (the front-end side) will not be affected unless utilizing a shared point from a downstream controller. In that case, the controller uses a default value until communication is restored.
