QA Graphics to Introduce Mobile Energy Dashboard App at AHR Expo

QA Graphics to Introduce Mobile Energy Dashboard App at AHR Expo - Booth #3729

Ankeny, Iowa – January 20, 2012 – QA Graphics, a leading provider of energy dashboards, is pleased to announce that they will unveil a new mobile application feature for their Energy Efficiency Education Dashboard product during the AHR Expo.

QA Graphics’ Energy Efficiency Education Dashboard makes building performance visual and easy to understand. The educational factor separates it from traditional monitoring dashboards. The solution can contribute to helping building occupants better understand and reduce their energy usage. With the development of this new mobile energy dashboard app, users can access building performance information on the go, and compare it to other organizations that have an Energy Efficiency Education Dashboard in place. The new app is capable of accessing real-time building data from multiple locations and different building automation systems simultaneously. It’s almost limitless as to how many data points can be accessed, and the application can be developed for use across multiple mobile platforms. AHR Expo attendees can visit QA Graphics’ booth 3729 to learn more and interact with this new app on an iPad.

“This new feature expands the potential impact of occupant awareness to a new level. Now that multiple organizations can compare building performance, energy awareness can be much more social,” said Dan McCarty, president of QA Graphics. “For example, universities can get students involved in sustainable initiatives and compare dormitory performance across campus, as well as with other universities across the country.”

AHR attendees can also see QA Graphics’ brief presentation in the product technology theater at 4:30, Tuesday January 24. They will illustrate how the Energy Efficiency Education Dashboard can creatively communicate building performance and how going mobile provides even more opportunities to increase occupant awareness.

• Gateway for BAS Devices or Meters: A fully programmable controller that can communicate with any BAS and acts as another device node using the BACnet IP, BACnet MS/TP, or Lon communication protocols.
• Web Interface for JCI Metasys®: Web interface streamlines the integration process with Johnson Controls Inc.’s Metasys building management system and eliminates the need for additional hardware. It takes advantage of the MSEA Secure Data Access DLL to securely access the Metasys system extended architecture (MSEA) data, and handles the entire JCI point configuration, MSEA login, MSEA data retrieval, and the formatting of the returned data for display.
• Module for Niagara AX®: A licensed module file that works exclusively with a Niagara AX device, and acts as the gateway between the building automation system and energy dashboard application.

At AHR QA Graphics will also showcase their design capabilities including BAS graphic outsourcing, HVAC 3D development, drafting services, and other multimedia including mobile application development for Apple iOS (iPhone/iPad/iTouch), Android and BlackBerry devices, touchscreen application design, kiosk development, Flash development, product demonstrations and other multimedia solutions.
