New Carrier High-Speed BACnet Link Offered for i-Vu® Building Automation System

KENNESAW, Ga., Dec. 19, 2017 — Carrier is pleased to announce another new addition to its next-generation BACnet router portfolio, the i-Vu® XT BACnet link. The i-Vu XT BACnet link supports seamless connectivity to other BACnet devices, allowing facilities staff to manage all of the BACnet equipment in their building through a single i-Vu user interface. Carrier, a world leader in high-technology heating, ventilating and air-conditioning solutions, is a part of UTC Climate, Controls & Security, a unit of United Technologies Corp. (NYSE: UTX).

The new i-Vu XT BACnet link follows the recent release of the i-Vu XT BACnet router. Both devices are part of the next generation of i-Vu controls, featuring high-speed communications, increased processing horsepower, integrated diagnostics, flexible mounting options and a reduced footprint.

The new i-Vu XT BACnet link includes built-in functionality for:
·         Monitoring and controlling third-party BACnet devices within a building;
·         Routing BACnet communications between the i-Vu system and various networks including BACnet/IP and BACnet/Ethernet (up to 1GB), BACnet MSTP, and/or BACnet over ARCnet;
·         Executing customized control programs built with Carrier’s SNAP graphical programming tool;
·         Troubleshooting BACnet network communications using diagnostic dashboards and trend graphs inside of the i-Vu building automation system. Operators can visualize network statistics including logs/counters, transmit/receive activity, and network traffic latencies for the connected BACnet networks;
·         Capturing BACnet network traffic either continuously or on-demand and saving the information to a file for uploading into third-party network analysis tools.
