AVAILABLE NETWORKS
LonWorks
The Xenta 711/731 is a web based controller and presentation system for LonWorks networks. Using a standard web
browser, the operator can easily view and
control the applications and the devices in
the LonWorks network via Internet or a
local intranet.
One Xenta 711/731 can pre sent a LonWorks network or be one of several local
presen tation devices in a larger network.
Explore the Xenta 711/731 web site with
the web browser, check and acknowledge
alarms from the LonWorks network or
change setpoints or operating conditions.
Time schedules and trend logs are also
easily accessed. The web pages are based
on standard Internet technology as HTML
and Java applets. Alarms can be forwarded as e-mails.
The Xenta 731 can also act as a Xenta
server for Lonworks and has in-built connectivity to Vista. This option provides an
unsurpassed and integrated solution for
building management and security.
The Xenta 711/731 has the capacity
to supervise a LonWorks network with
approximately 30 nodes. The amount
of SNVTs possible to bind to each unit is
about 400. Both polled and bound SNVTs
can be monitored.
Modbus Communication
(Xenta 731 only)
The Xenta 731 can exchange data with
devices on networks other than the LonWorks network. By using the serial interfaces RS232 or RS485, the Xenta 731 can
be configured for communication using a
serial protocol such as Modbus.
The Xenta 731 can also communicate by
using the 10Base-T port on the front to
communicate over the Ethernet network,
such as Modbus TCP. Use TAC XBuilder
to set up the port you want to use.
Device Editor: Is used to configure the
communication protocol for Xenta 731.
A device template is created for every
type of device that the Xenta 731 communicates with.
The device editor is included in the
TAC XBuilder installation.
Device Limitations: When using the Modbus protocol, the Xenta 731 interface can
communicate with a maximum number of devices as follows: as a Modbus
Master: 31 Modbus Slaves, as a Modbus
Slave: 1 Modbus Master, and Modbus
TCP: 100.
I/NET
(Xenta 731 only)
The Xenta 731 is a multifunctional control
and presentation system with a built-in
(embedded) web server. It offers I/NET
users a feature rich web solution by
providing secure web browser access to
controllers and networks.
Monitoring, energy management, alarm
annunciation, logging, scheduling and
point overrides are all accessible via an
easy to use and intuitive graphical user
interface.
TAC XBuilder programming tools enable
speedy configuration and engineering.
The full range of I/NET controllers are
supported.
I/NET is an easy-to-use, scalable and
modular securing and building automation system for the control of HVAC plant
and associated building services. It offers
unique benefits for small to medium sized
buildings and complexes.
The physical size of the connected I/NET
system is a factor in this but is not a primary limitation.
In some systems therefore more than one
Xenta 731 may be required to handle the
total system traffic.
The Xenta 731 web server has been
tested with up to 1,000 TAC Vista Security points.
MicroNet
(Xenta 731 only)
The Xenta 731 is a multifunctional control
and presentation system with a built-in
(embedded) web server. It offers MicroNet and Satchnet users a feature rich
web solution by providing secure web
browser access to MicroNet and Satchnet
controllers and networks.
Monitoring, energy management, alarm
annunciation, logging, scheduling and
point overrides are all accessible via an
easy to use and intuitive graphical user
interface.
VisiSat and TAC XBuilder programming
tools enable speedy configuration and engineering.
The full range of MicroNet and Satchnet
controllers and Bus du jour networking
options are supported.
MicroNet is an easy-to-use, scalable and
modular building automation system for
the control of HVAC plant and associated
building services. It offers unique benefits
for small to medium sized buildings and
complexes.
MicroNet users can choose the communications platform best suited to their business: NCP, ARCNET or LonWorks.
