#028 - Building Automation System using the BACnet Protocol with Todd Hustrulid

In this episode, you will hear from Todd Hustrulid, an engineer at Baseline, how irrigation systems can be integrated into the building automation system.

What is BACnet?

BACnet is a communication protocol for Building Automation and Control (BAC) networks.

BACnet was designed to allow communication of building automation and control systems for applications such as heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning control (HVAC), lighting control, access control, and fire detection systems and their associated equipment. The BACnet protocol provides mechanisms for computerized building automation devices to exchange information, regardless of the particular building service they perform.

With Baseline's BACnet Manager™ any BACnet compatible Building Management System can display important information like water-use data and system alerts from the BaseStation irrigation controllers.

BACnet makes it easier than ever to track and achieve your water savings objectives. In contrast with the competition, Baseline irrigation controllers combine ease-of-use with the connectivity and interoperability required by modern Building Management System implementations.
