What is "EMS" Anyway? "EMS" Anyway?

Building Automation? Power Metering? Remote Monitoring? Energy Analytics? Dashboards? Smart Grid?

Energy Management System

Energy Management System

system t [sis-tuhm] noun 1. an assemblage or combination of things or parts forming a complex or unitary whole: a mountain system; a railroad system; a control system.

When I first got involved with BACnet I read the specification from beginning to end several times ifi ti f b i i t d l ti and the process gave me headaches for weeks

Communication not as simple as it looks

Even simple communication is complex

The BACnet Standard

Enables effective communication among building devices devices, systems & applications by specifying:

Physical interconnection options Network routing options g p Data representation options Data exchange options Action-Requests/Response options Capability options

BACnet Systems Experience

BACnet implementations need to be designed by somebody Poorly engineered systems perform poorly (with or without BACnet) Users need to pay attention Consulting engineers need to be informed Integrators need to be trained BACnet is a tool, not a goal Community adds value

The BACnet Community

BACnet Standard Development Clarifications Corrections Extensions

BACnet Community Development Education Testing Promotion

plus regional BACnet Interest Groups developing in the Middle East and Asia

BACnet Standard Development

ASHRAE consensus standard via SSPC-135 Adopted as US national standard by ANSI Adopted as European standard by CEN Adopted as Global standard by ISO
ISO 16484-5 The only complete, ISO BAS standard
