Data and communication servers (DCS) are used as management stations in

building automation and control (BAC). With DDC technology, the DCSs, as

superposed system components, allow for customer-specific solutions of all

building automation and control tasks.

Use

The DCS' application range comprises a large number of building automation and control

tasks such as:

• Process station communication at the subsystem level.

• Processing of acquired process data in real time.

• Continuous storage of selected process values (temperatures, setpoints, etc.).

• Monitoring of technical installations.

• Output of higher commands (e.g. peak load control, emergency power and network

restoration).

• Logging of plant faults.

• Alarming of internal and external service organizations.

• Sending clear text messages based on technical plant events.

• Triggering reactions based on various causes:

Time, date, process value changes and operating hours (maintenance).

• Simultaneous execution of various BAC tasks (multitasking).
