Echelon Exhibits ControlBy At the 2002 International Air-Conditioning, Heating, Refrigerating Exposition (AHR Expo) in Atlantic City, NJ, Echelon Corporation showed the open LonWorks-based building system that the company is using for its building automation system in its San Jose, CA headquarters. From the Echelon booth, attendees can directly control the environment of one of the company's headquarters offices over 3,000 miles away. Users are able to adjust temperature set points, change occupancy schedules, modify Energy Star set-backs, and define lighting scenes. Echelon's booth also features the the company's first extension to its i.LON family of products, the i.LON 100 Server, aimed at use in medium sized commercial buildings and for managing multiple LonWorks networks from central locations. More than 1,100 LonWorks devices from more than 25 vendors power key building automation sub-systems -- including heating, ventilating, and air conditioning (HVAC), lighting, boilers, air handlers, security, elevator, fire detection, access control, energy monitoring, window blind, and irrigation control. All of the devices on the network were installed using Echelon's LonMaker Integration Tool and are LonMark certified. The building's IP network not only provides the corporate Intranet but, using the routing feature of Echelon's i.LON 1000 Internet Servers, also serves as the high-speed backbone for the LonWorks device network. The built-in web server in each i.LON 1000 also provide a unique web-accessible user interface for each office and conference room that provide employees with unprecedented levels of control and visibility into control of their space and insight into the cost and operation of the work environment. The i.LON 10 is designed to provide a low-cost entry point for Internet device connectivity. Combined with remote maintenance, monitoring, and control applications built on Echelon's LNS network operating system, the i.LON 10 will enable businesses to remotely manage and interact with devices in factories and commercial buildings and provide a platform for service providers to connect to everyday devices in homes and businesses. The i.LON 100 is targeted at small to mid-size commercial and industrial networks, such as those typically used at schools, convenience stores, banks, water treatment plants, pumping stations, and factories. Its built-in Web server, energy meter inputs, high-capacity relay outputs, and software for scheduling, data logging and alarming make the i.LON 100 an ideal tool for locally controlling and remotely supervising facilities of all kinds.
