Now I definitely would like to talk with you. Thanks.

Judging by your responses in the lighting thread you are definitely a PRO. And, since they whisked that thread off to PRO that should have been validation enough. Get your posts up I guess. I'd like...

Yes, the big problem here is the lack of comprehension doesn't preclude the ability to argue.
If it makes you feel better I can say you have a great post whether or not I understand you. Yea, why...

Thanks for supporting what I am trying to state here. I am not an ASHRAE bacnet supporter. I'm not here to support ASHRAE's bacnet business model. I've always expected ASHRAE to be a neutral body for...

Update your toolset because it works from the desktop. That's also where all Distech wizards emanate. They do this for a specific reason.

Do you deny the possibility or not? You guys are all ready to line up and deny but not ready to learn for yourself. Because nothing outlandish is being stated here and has been stated before.

I had a great laugh over that. Brilliant. Spin cycle - ON.

Anti-ASHRAE commentary not allowed.

BACnet is winning in the US.
It doesn't matter how good it is or not.
And, if ASHRAE likes something - suddenly it becomes "bacnet".

Just look at Zigbee. It's bacnet now.

(PRWEB) October 13,...

I am continually amazed at the way people try to express truth avoidance. Really I don't care the guy pushes a certain line of product and wants to sell that over supporting products. However, no...

Enjoy your Honeywell and Tridium AX replacement project.

This is why I like standards.

It is like the BACnet specification. If you want it you have to pay to get it.

Early 300 series devices had the same problem Belimo actuator. I still know of 200 series projects where they are largely intact and working. This is about 20 years. One site in particular is very...

"I've heard of DALI emergency lighting, but I am curious how they address a power cycle/temporary outage."

There is an open standard you can read through on it. Quite involved actually. But, shut...

So, I got to ask the question: Was this part of the project requirements and told to the lighting guy?

I'd like to talk with you when I get back to WI. Madison has some programs related to automation. Can you attend these seminars?

Are you a Circon SI currently? And secondly, the damper motor is a Belimo. So, what you mean to say is you think the flow sensor used wasn't very good and the Belimo manufactured actuator wasn't good...

Have you called Circon and made some new friends? Probably they can help you out.

If the customer is concerned, replace everything. Where does this level of customer concern come from and why? All you need to do is tell them EBAC Circon is in place and ready to help. Not an option...

Maybe check those smart I/O feature set out... RTM

Well, get used to seeing systems you haven't seen before if you don't know about Circon. If it is API Circon then everything is in the SI program. Do you have SI, VI, or both? Further, you can look...

I don't like it when guys are blowing up systems "just because". Replace everything because its what you really understand with your AX box.

Sam, I don't understand your reasoning here completely. With DALI you can have groups. More importantly you can wire up mains as one circuit because you don't need to HARDWIRE your groups. Your...

Good day to you Sam, DALI is easier to wire and also retrofit than 0-10v. 2 wire free topology. Power supply rating allows you to put it in with the line voltage mains. You get away from switches on...

As for my local supplier(s)... well... none stock locally, but can get them and this is from 3 different suppliers and so I think your comment does not apply here.

No demand? Yea, nobody wants an...

There is no hardware issue making DALI ballasts more costly than 0-10v. DALI is more flexible and has greater cost savings potential, so probably this is one reason the extra cost. Maybe the second...

Well, now you know why the offense... find out if they were just being lazy or it was intentional.

Then you represent Siemens because the "other two" are the same company (Honeywell). Unless of course you are trying to make some sort of distinction that doesn't really exist.

Well, you say offensive and I say disappointing. I can't stand the way these US based lighting agents and lighting distributors BS their way into giving people like you crap. Then, you need to do all...

With DALI it will know what to do so all the extra money you are wasting now on mechanical failure devices you wouldn't be wasting with DALI. So it's more efficient, reports back lamp failures and...

Based on your efforts here can we put this up for debate?

I am starting to like the word sleek.

Wild guess observation -you don't happen to represent Siemens, Honeywell and Alerton (Honeywell) lines do you?

I sense a lawsuit for patent infringement...

I was waiting for this thread to hit the twilight zone. I see it successfully made it.

JCI rebadges Distech controllers. Are you saying Distech does not work either?

Looks like there was a bad day in WI for an ALC install... rejected.

Canadian inspectors would have a heart attack if they saw the way Europeans wire things up. However, most of their buildings are stone and concrete so really it cannot burn down. But, I think on this...

I think the answer to that observation is simply "Canada".

The number of KNX devices and KNX certified products probably makes the BACnet MSTP installed base look completely insignificant.

Different markets do different things on field bus. Europe has much KNX and some LON or Modbus and bacnet MSTP is not a serious consideration. In the US you see LON and BACnet MSTP with Modbus and...

Any plans for a couple pictures on this face lift you performed?

Well, maybe mostly true. What is more interesting to me is that most of our products now speak multiple languages on IP so this protocol issue is mitigated as a concern because you connect up with...

Based on my extensive experience here I predict this discussion will turn out well.

So- you did remake the site?
How did it go dealing with those Loytec people?
And, do you still want those L-ROC's?

I like the cleaner graphics. My first question on graphics is how well does it print? If it prints good, I like it better.

On the AZ project, the thing they really like is that there is no lag...

Of course he picked up a bunch of new tricks and I think he redid his site already....

Buildings Under Control Symposium - 381 has a case study which is posted on the website.

Would have been nice to have you at the show. However, to answer those questions requires a call. Thanks.
