Software
IMPERIO as a possess control system set up in building automation mode (IMPERIO-BAS-Home) with a multitude of options is ideally suited for the field of building and home automation/instrumentation.
Basic functions for alarms, messages, counting, switching and control
Functions for the representation of the mode of operation
Functions for the monitoring and alerting in the event of an error
Processing functions for safe local automation, control and regulation
Processing functions for local optimization (power-rational mode of operation)
Processing functions for gewerkeübergreifende total optimization and function co-ordination
Interactive control functions
Management functions for decision support (analyze actual or historical flow charts)
Tools for the computation of optimized operating parameters
Functions for data exchange with other systems
Functions for remote maintenance and remote control
Tools for amendments, expansion and test
Functions for storing data, (archiving)
Functions maintaining to a comfortable climate
Monitoring of the air quality
Daylight use in coordination with artificial lighting
System
Various sensors for the data collection of outside temperature, humidity, wind, brightness, sun exposure etc..
Integration of all switches for light, shutters
Integration of heating, climate, irrigation systems
During your absence a sensor automates your
lighting and can also be used as an alarm-system.
Connection of GSM modems for remote maintenance and transmission of disturbances and alarms
Operator panel for operation and status indication
Remote control by means of infrared remote control
Input/output modules for the decentralized connection of sensors and actuators such as movement alarm unit, wind sensors, lights, pumps, boiler, and solar plants
Operation over PC, laptop or PDA over Wireless LAN
Operation over television set and remote maintenance by means of auxiliary hardware possible
Functions for comfort and security
The system examines windows and doors and indicates witch is open, when window or doors are open it adjusts the temperature accordingly to save heating.
Remote control of the system is possible using a handheld remote and a TV interface.
Sensors monitor wind force and sun exposure and operate the sunshade and shutters, e.g.. For gentle waking in the morning by slowly opening the shutters
Outside temperature, humidity and brightness are measured and if necessary heating or lighting is switched on or off
Rain sensors indicate rain and determine if the roof lights or irrigation is off or on
Simulate a presence in the house by automatically switching lights on/off, roller-type shutters open/closed, awnings in/out
Individual temperature settings for individual areas and for select times of day (e.g. bath in the morning pre-heated, bedroom temperature is in the evening lowered)
The lighting is controlled automatically and time-dependently. lighting effects can be produced by the push of a button.
Ventilation or air conditioning system adjustments are determined automatically.
Calculation of the warm water demand and running time of the boiler or the solar plant
Heating can be switched on by telephone.
Control of garage gate, way lighting, garden irrigation....
Indication and alarms for disturbances.
When leaving the house the temperatures adjusted accordingly in addition all unnecessary appliances are shut off.
While away on holiday you can remotely check to see if your stove or iron was left on. You can also shut them off remotely if needed.
When an attempted burglary is detected, deterrence lighting and/or a siren turns on, the security agency is notified immediately.
Hardware
Through the fixable design of IMPERIO the complete line of products from almost all manufactures can be connected to the system. IMPERIO will work with nearly all hardware appliances and devices. One of the biggest advantages of implementing a building automation system with IMPERIO is its one of a kind pass-through PLC programming archi-tecture. This technology takes 80% less time to configure the PLC's than it would with competing automation software.
