Open Systems

Automated Logic BACnet Compliant Control
Proprietary systems? They’re history. Today’s building control is an open discussion: open systems, open architecture, open standards.

Open systems have introduced new levels of operational efficiency, flexibility and cost effectiveness. With open architecture, users can install integrated, easily modified systems using innovative combinations of components -- including components from competing providers. And they provide practical solutions for remote operations as well as multi-system control from single workstations.

With our product-wide integration of native BACnet, Automated Logic’s open system architecture has effectively returned building control to the user. BACnet’s superior performance (from low-speed networks to high-speed Ethernet) and scalability enable our systems to satisfy a wide range of institutional needs, from single sites to multi-building campuses. As a charter member of the BACnet Manufacturers Association (BMA) we’re helping ASHRAE keep BACnet at the forefront of technology. We also helped establish the BACnet Testing Laboratory to ensure that our products and all other manufacturers’ BACnet products meet ASHRAE’s standards for interoperability.

This open system approach is now paying benefits like never before. After all, it’s the only approach capable of taking full advantage of the web. And it’s the reason our newest building control system, WebCTRL®, offers end-to-end freedom you just won’t find anywhere else.
