Lighting programmer EBR-OSC1

DIN rail

The EBR-OSC1 Open Systems Gateway allows the powerful Rapid lighting control system to be interfaced to a variety of Open Systems in order to enhance the lighting and building management. At CP Electronics we believe that the lighting control system must provide a fully functional method for providing energy control and usability of the lighting infrastructure. But we also realise that there are occasions where this lighting infrastructure must be integrated with the other Building Management Systems. To enable this integration, we are able to offer an Open Systems gateway. This gateway sits between the Rapid communications bus and whatever Building Management System is in use, and converts the Rapid protocol to another open systems protocol such as BACnet or KNX. The gateway comprises a simple DIN rail mountable controller which can be programmed by the systems integrators to provide a variety of information about the status of the lighting control system, as well as accepting commands from the building management system to control the lighting. The Rapid Open Systems Gateway uses an industry standard Beckhoff controller to translate the CAN based protocol to many other Open Systems Standards, including but not limited to: ● BACnet ● Modbus ● KNX ● LON
