Solutions' approach to building automation controls is focused entirely on the customers' needs with: LONworks: 100% open protocol, so all equipment manufacturers can communicate with each other.  Never again get locked into the high costs of manufacturers with proprietary protocols. 100% open standard software: Common software packages are the foundation of our system, so customers can work with information any way they choose (i.e. - MS SQL databases, HTML, Flash, WIFI, TCP/IP, etc...). Professionally engineered: Physical engineers specializing in optimizing complete HVAC systems design the operating protocols of all equipment.  With complete intra-communication between controllers throughout the system, levels of efficiency far exceeding those of individual equipment manufacturers are achieved. Customized PID feedback loops: Controllers are taught to adapt setpoints appropriately to building & outdoor conditions to optimize efficiency. No "bolt-on" solution can approach the efficiency of customized automation. Lightning fast performance: Unique technological architecture assures the best possible performance, regardless of the number of points being controlled & monitored.  Never get bogged down waiting for information again. Ultra-reliability: Every controller contains its own computing processors & operating program, so if communication breaks down temporarily, it automatically operates in a failsafe mode. Standardized controller design: Replacing a defective controller takes minutes (it's as simple as uploading the pre-configured program, swapping the wired terminal blocks from the old controller, & snapping it in place). Web-based Interfaces: Monitor & control buildings from Internet connections anywhere in the world. WIFI Communication: WIFI Local Area Networks dedicated to the building automation controls system enable customers to monitor & control equipment with any smartphone device (no Internet connection required). Automated alarm notification: Users can be automatically alerted by pager, text, or email if any abnormalities appear.  This simplifies operations management & provides early warnings of maintenance issues. Energy consumption metering, trending, & reporting:  Pre-defined reporting formats for simplicity combined with extraordinary flexibility.
