NETx LaMPS presents one of the enhanced features of NETx BMS Platform. Its main task is to simplify the management of KNX/DALI gateways. Therefore, LaMPS module provides a generic interface to initiate DALI tests independent of the used KNX/DALI gateway vendor. As a pure field technology, LaMPS does not have managements functions and therefore is integrated in other building automation technologies. All DALI gateways and devices are represented in a uniform data point view as NETx BMS Platform items.

• Vendor-independent representation of DALI gateways and devices
• Generic interface to initiate DALI tests
• Support for DALI emergency lighting
• Definition of thresholds and alarms
• Monitoring of operating hours, current and voltage
• Estimation of power and energy values

One of the most important parts of building automation is energy efficiency and user comfort. In order to enable these goals for the automatic shading, NETxAutomation has developed the NETx Shutter Control. It is an extension of NETx BMS Platform for automatic shading of complex buildings. This extension enables automatic control of blinds considering the current season, weather, sun position and the position of the building.

• Project specific - NETx Shutter Control always considers your individual needs as well as special operating modes
• Sophisticated – for ambitious shading solutions ordinary sensors and actuators are not enough. The use of software at the administrative level is required.
• Extensive – solution for large and complex buildings.

Functions

• 3D Design and simulation
• Automatic shading control
• Consideration of weather situation
• Shading groups
• Slat adjustment
• Manual control
• Dynamic calculation of the brightness threshold

The NETx BMS Platform is an all-in-one building management solution that can collect data and information from the building automation system using different technologies, protocols and systems. The NETx BMS Platform consists of various components: Core server, Core Studio, Web Manager, Visualization, SQL database, xLogic Editor.

The NETx BMS Platform provides a sophisticated web-based user interface for managing the BMS functions – the Web Manager. The Web Manager can be accessed by any client with a web browser. To avoid a malicious use of this web interface TLS secured https and user authentication is available. After entering username and password, the Web Manager provides multiple so called Web Manager Apps. Within the current version, the following apps are available:

• Dashboard
• Alarms
• Scheduler
• Trending
• Visualization Manager
• Explorer
• Templates
• Shutter Control

The NETx BMS Platform supports various open protocols and standards like KNX, BACnet, Modbus, SNMP, OPC, oBIX, Helvar and more. Furthermore, application specific technologies like hotel management systems (Oracle Fidelio/Opera, Protel, Infor, charPMS, RMS Cloud, VHP) as well as various door lock systems (VingCard, Salto, Kaba) are supported too.

Moreover, enhanced features for specific use cases are available, such as Lighting / DALI Management or Automatic Shading Control.

Additionally, NETx Vision app enables the visualization and control of building automation systems on your smartphone or tablet.

Interfaces to the management level:

• OPC
• BACnet
• oBIX and other Web Service Interfaces for IoT
• MQTT
• Web interfaces
• VNET

Interfaces to the field-/automation level:

• KNX
• BACnet
• Modbus
• SNMP
• OPC
• MQTT
• Helvar
  

The NETx BMS Platform with all its possibilities and extensions presents a perfect solution for hotels. Control and visualization in one product, as well as the ability to combine data from different systems (such as hotel management and door lock systems) distinguish the NETx BMS Platform from other hotel solutions. Therefore, respectable potential savings can be realized. Using the check in/check out information from the hotel management system the HVAC system of a hotel room can be controlled. In order to provide guests with only the best service, "mySmartSuite" as a BYOD extension of the NETx BMS Platform makes the stay even more comfortable and easier. It enables the control and visualization of light, temperature, blinds, etc. on the smartphone or tablet.

Interfaces to Hotel management systems:

• Oracle Fidelio/Opera

° Guest In/Out/GuestDataChange with room change
° Guest Message handling online/on request
° Room Equipment/Room maid status/Do not Disturb

• Infor - Infor Hospitality Management Solution (HMS ™) - cloud-based hotel management system
• Protel - Additionally to the Fidelio/Opera interface a Protel interface is available for the NETx BMS Platform. This interface allows an exchange of information between the Server and Protel
• RMS Cloud
• charPMS
• VHP

Door lock systems:

• VingCard - the NETx BMS Platform can connect to the VisiOnline Server Software. The following events can be retrieved: Guest entrance (including the card number), staff entrance, inside open, deadbolt thrown, deadbolt released.
• Kaba - Kaba door locks are using a wireless communication protocol which is based on ZigBee. The events are centrally collected by the Kaba server software and sent via push notification to third-party software.
• Salto - Salto door locks are using a wireless communication protocol which is based on ZigBee. The events are centrally collected by the Salto server software and sent via push notification to third-party software.
