The powerful, modular ILC 2050 BI controller is specially designed for automation tasks in buildings, especially monitoring and control of building infrastructure, energy flow and HVAC applications. The controller is scalable and can be used for any number of hardware and software applications.

Your advantages

Reduced commissioning costs, thanks to standardized functions
Low effort involved in integrating sensors and actuators, thanks to various protocols on a single controller
Easy programming, via drag and drop
Cost-effective operation, thanks to location-independent, web-based maintenance, monitoring, and programming

Integration of subsections – open, efficient, limitless

Building with different subsections and a roof-mounted solar system

Easily integrating different subsections

The main advantage of the Niagara framework is the integration of data from various bus systems and protocols at the field level. This information is compiled and processed in a controller, and then forwarded.The controller supports numerous communication drivers, including BACnet/IP, Modbus/TCP, KNXnet/IP, LonMark IP-852, oBIX and SNMP.

The data from connected devices and networks is standardized and is then available in the overall system

Flexible license model

Flexible licensing – Tailored solutions

The Niagara license for the controller is based on the number of data points that can be integrated. The basic license starts at 250 data points and can be expanded to up to 10000 data points. A maintenance license for software updates and upgrades is also required. You can choose between a runtime of one, three or five years. Just get in touch with us, and we'll find the right license for your project.

Station management at the server level - supervisor and Workbench

Control cabinets and IPC with visualization

Easy and efficient configuration of stations

Supervisor

The supervisor offers a graphical display of real-time information and server functions, such as central trend logging, archiving, alarms, visualization, scheduler, system-wide database management, and integration in SCADA systems. The supervisor uses various IP-based protocols such as BACnet/IP, Modbus/TCP, KNXnet/IP, LonMark IP-852, oBIX and SNMP and a standardized object model to support direct communication with other systems.

Workbench

Workbench is the integrated supervisor development platform with graphic and text-based programming tools. Workbench is used for configuration of communication interfaces, web visualization, user management and contains an alarm console. Workbench offers all the required components for developing complex functions for standard modules. Wiresheet views offer programming applications using drag and drop. A Workbench license is a part of each supervisor license.
