Features
• 18 hardware input/output options.
• Standard field bus protocols to integrate into any existing BAS system such as: BACnet, Modbus, Optomux, N2-Open, ECM, and ASCII. Other protocols such as Ethernet, Wi-Fi, Zigbee, EnOcean, Bluetooth, etc. can also be incorporated using external modules or network cards.
• Uniquely allows the support of up to 2 separate networks of BAS controllers simultaneously with two different communication protocols.
• Connects to the Ethernet Gateway (OpenBAS-NWK-ETH3 to provide) to provide advanced networking to integrate into IP networks while using the most advanced features and protocols such as distributed computing, USB and Cloud Storage, HTML5, Javascript, XML, Ajax, SMS, and GSM.
• Modular design and expandability for increasing capacity of inputs and outputs through expansion modules, networked controllers, and remote bus-driven controllers.
• OpenBAS covers any small, medium, or large-sized projects; either stand alone or networked applications.
• Supports the management of wireless field devices, sensors, and switches. Reduces the cost of installation for new or
retrofit applications.
• Two RS-485 field bus communication ports.
• Programmable remotely with the addition of the OpenBAS-NWK-ETH3 network module or locally through the USB and field bus ports.
• 8 Universal Inputs are provided to connect any industry standard sensor. Two analog outputs for variable uses (. E.g., Base heaters).
• 8 Relay binary outputs with a current capability of up to 5 Amps at 125 VAC or 28 VDC. Avoids unnecessary costs of externally mounted relays.
• USB memory support allows for virtually unlimited amount of information storage (300 EEprom based registers) – please note this is only available on the OpenBAS-HV-NX10D model.
• Powerful Configuration Software supports ladder templates and script programs for an effortless solution. Visually assemble building blocks for custom control sequences in any HVAC / building automation application.
• Mircom’s enclosures, boxes, and power supplies provide installers with a single supplier source for all building automation needs.
• Built-in high speed communication port for mounting an Ethernet Communication module allowing for web-based controllers or network coordinators. Additional functions include webserver, email server, and a GPRS texting modem.
• Highly expandable with several expansion buses that allow the addition of diverse external modules. One full speed USB 2.0 port used to configure the controller and program the application logic with the configuration tool software.
• Each controller can be configured as a master and a slave simultaneously through the available field buses.
• Master controllers have the capability to support up to 50 remote points or 460 remote points with expanded memory.
• DIN Rail mountable.
• Includes RTCC battery backup.
