Overview of product details
Desigo™ Overall topology
One of the key benefits of Desigo™ is its seamless expansion capability, starting from the smallest system up to comprehensive and
distributed large systems.
Freely programmable automation stations
Desigo PX offers maximum flexibility with freely programmable automation stations for primary
plants. This way, building services plants can be optimally controlled and monitored. Comprehensive
system functions such as alarms, time scheduling and trend data storage cover all the requirements
associated with the operation of a building. The distributed automation stations, available as modu-
lar and compact series, operate autonomously.
Desigo PX excels in consistent openness of the system and the scalability of its freely programmable
automation stations and operator units, making cost-effective DDC technology a possibility even in
smaller HVAC systems. Whether for new buildings or modernization projects, investment costs are
limited to the system components that are actually needed.
Maximum openness
The consistent and coordinated use of standards like BACnet, KNX, LonWorks or AMEV emphasize
the openness of Desigo for maximum overall efficiency. The native BACnet automation stations offer
a multifunctional integration platform used to connect third-party automation stations and open
field-bus networks to the BACnet network. A few decentralized, distributed third-party devices can be
connected quickly and
cost-effectively via Desigo TX Open and processed in the automation system.
A range of graded operator units
Building users and facility managers benefit from a comprehensive range of touch panels and opera-
tor units which can be used for targeted modification of comfort
conditions or of the whole plant.
Especially ergonomic finger operation of the PXM40 (10 inch) and PXM50 (15 inch) Desigo Touch
and Web permits complete operation of Desigo PX automation stations via the BACnet/IP Web inter-
face PXG3.W100.
