  1. “Open System Solutions…a Framework for Success”September 2007 Steve Lucas – Sales Manager, Vykon Security Scott Muench - Technical Sales Manager © 2007 Tridium, Inc.

  2. Agenda • Open Systems Overview • The Technology - Niagara Framework • Example Solution • Integrator Toolkit • Summary of Benefits • Q & A

  3. CFO HVAC Lighting Fire XML SQL MODBUS HTTPHTML Facility Management ODBC SNMP JDBC FTP LEGACY Security SMTP WAP Maintenance Energy And More What Customers Want Systems Enterprise Open System Framework From boiler room to board room – Brings value to the operation

  4. Open System Framework

  5. Open System Life Cycle Costs • Do they cost more or less than closed systems? • How much does it cost to acquire? (Initial Capital Investment) • What’s it cost to keep? (Ongoing Maintenance) • How does it help or hinder me in day to day activities? (Impact upon Operations) • If I need to change, modify or enhance it, what does it cost and how quickly can it be done? (Reconfiguration/Enhancement Costs) • Is it worth anything when I’m done with it? (Residual Value)

  6. Key Elements ofOpenness • Device connectivity • How many products of importance to my application can a given technology or system communicate with?  • User Interface Connectivity • Can a standard browser be used for Access? • Can alarms, messages etc. be emailed, transferred to standard devices such as browsers, phones, servers, PDAs? • Can I give anyone access without additional licenses fees? • Access to products for initial purchase and expansions • Where can I buy these products? • Where can I get them installed or serviced? • How many suppliers? • Is it a competitive situation?

  7. Key Elements ofOpenness • Third party development of complimentary enterprise applications • Can independent developers create new products and applications that work coherently with the system? • Public interfaces (“APIs”) to allow 3rd party access to data • Are there published interfaces that makes it easy to access system data? • Support for accepted standard protocols • Does the system in question support the “lion’s share” of relevant standard communication protocols? • Compatibility with standard databases • Can data from the system be easily shared with common database formats used throughout my enterprise?

  8. The Customer Test • The end use customer is where the buck stops with open systems. • They choose the systems, they pay for them, they live with them. • Open systems gives the end user the ultimate freedom of choice. • Manufacturer of choice • Protocol of choice - BACnet, LonTalk, Modbus, SNMP, OPC, and many proprietary devices or systems. • Local contractor of choice • Choice to select add-on applications and devices from third party suppliers • Choice to extend the capabilities of the system through standard software interfaces

  9. IBM HTTPHTMLXML OPEN ODBC SMTP JDBC FTP CORBASOAPSNMP Open System Framework Model

  10. The Technology - Niagara Framework • Unifies heterogeneous devices, protocols, data via a robust component model foundation • Internet standards built in • Scalable, embeddable solution – same software can be used in small low cost devices and at enterprise app level • Real time – connects real time data from field devices to enterprise applications, provides local control execution • Integrated tools support programming for non-programmers: domain experts build end-use applications with a graphical tool – no coding • Connects disparate devices for coordinated peer-to-peer control in the field independent of any central server • Open development platform (extensive open APIs) allows partners to independently develop differentiated products and apps

  11. Web-server with dynamic data/e-mail alarming, etc. Internet connectivity – TCP/IP, HTTP, SNMP Data logging, archiving Real-time control loops/ schedules/ alarming Java Component Object Model LON, OPC, MODBUS, BACnet, Legacy, etc. Integrated, graphical dev toolset Comprehensive, flexible platform for developing Internet-enabled solutions User interface/data Presentation Internet connectivity Information management Control functions Data normalization Device-level communications
