Infodisplay using the LONWORKS® technology
The Infodisplay has been designed for visualisation and storage of data acquired either through the LONWORKS network or by local connections. The unit can also be used for data input and transmission to other units through the LONWORKS network.
The Infodisplay is composed of an illuminated LCD display (30 x 16 characters, 240 x 128 pixels), an input knob that can be
turned and pressed, and a three-part LED display (green, yellow, red).
In its local memory (buffered RAM), the Infodisplay can file data,
either read locally or received through the network, and display
these data as values or in the form of bar or line charts. Important
data are additionally stored in the integrated data flash to protect
them in case of prolonged power failures.
Memory configuration (data volume, intervals, units) and network
variables are determined by the producer on the basis of the customer's specifications.
The Infodisplay can optionally be supplied complete with PC software
(InfoEdit). This software allows the menu configuration to be changed and used
in the Infodisplay. Menu data are transferred into the Infodisplay
either via the integrated serial in-terface or the LON file transfer
protocol. Data are maintained when disconnecting the unit from
the mains.
Network and storage functionalities as well as the menus can upon
request be made to match specific projects.
With its deliberately unobtrusive design and an aluminium front
panel, the unit provides for smooth and easy integration, no matter
whether it is used in a privately or commercially used environment.
Expansion options:
Complete systems are also available, which allow up to 24 energy
and consumption meters (electric energy, water, gas, caloric power),
provided with S0 interface or floating impulse contact, to be
read under timer control. The readings can be stored and, if required,
be transmitted through the LonWorks® network for processing.
Application:
The Infodisplay was originally developed for integration in residential
units forming part of ecologically oriented housing estates. People
living on such an estate are to be given the opportunity to check
up on and influence their energy consumption at any time. Also
displayed is such valuable information as bus timetables, pollen
load forecasts, opening hours etc.
Other fields of application:
as small control units (e.g. for caretakers' flats, or in conference or privately used rooms) as alarm units (e.g. to display faults etc. in the catering industry, petrol stations, for industrial automation and the like).
