Products Overview

BACnet International

 

 

Blue Ridge Technologies is a Platinum Level member of BACnet International and produces
BACnet native products for our Building Automation and Technology Partners.

BACnet® International is an organization that encourages the successful use of BACnet® in building automation and control systems through interoperability testing educational programs, and promotional activities.

Most Blue Ridge Technologies products use the Multi-Protocol Native
Lx5 Technology Platform

Blue Ridge Technologies manufactured lighting relay panels integrate with most building automation systems; reducing frustration for the building engineer by eliminating the need to learn to operate and maintain a separate lighting control system. Blue Ridge Technologies manufactured lighting relay panels powered by Blue Ridge Technologies Lx5 Technology platform ship to all partners capable of supporting multiple native protocols. These protocols options are manually selectable with the flip of a switch or field flash upgradable with Blue Ridge Technologies Panel Programming Kit (LPPK).

Blue Ridge Technologies Product Mission

Unleash Sustainable System Performance

Building owners demand lighting control systems that operate trouble free from day-one and continue to perform reliably throughout the building life cycle. Sustainable system performance starts with a reliable system designed for compatibility and a comprehensive system commissioning. Blue Ridge Technologies is leading the way in both areas.

Reliable system compatibility is available from Blue Ridge Technologies for almost any building automation system and almost any open protocol. Blue Ridge Technologies offers lighting control systems that communicate using BACnet MSTP, BACnet ARCnet, BACnet PTP, BACnet IP, BACnet Ethernet, Modbus ASCII, Modbus RTU, N2 Open, Blue Ridge Technologies Open, or TRIATEK Legacy protocols.

Comprehensive system commissioning is performed by Blue Ridge Technologies Integration Partners. Our Integration Partners are highly qualified system integrators, understand technology, and provide superior local service throughout the building life cycle.

Eliminate Waste

Building owners want lighting control systems that remove redundant hardware expenses, bypass the cost of learning and maintaining separate systems, and optimize energy savings throughout the building life cycle.  Eliminating waste begins with a Blue Ridge Technologies built for integration solution.

Removing redundant hardware expense is affordable with Blue Ridge Technologies lighting control.  Unlike stand-alone lighting control, Blue Ridge Technologies is built for integration to maximize the building owner's investment by reducing redundant hardware, design and installation costs.

Bypassing the cost of learning and maintaining separate systems is easy with Blue Ridge Technologies .  An integrated approach enables the building owner to interact with the lighting control systemthe exact same way they interact with HVAC functions.  This approach also increases the likelihood that the system will be easily maintained down the road, even in the event of staff turnover.

Optimizing energy savings is now within reach with Blue Ridge Technologies .   Although any lighting control systemis designed to reduce energy consumption, lighting control that is built for integration sets the stage for increased savings.  This is accomplished through the seamlessness of information and communications between the building automation system and lighting control system.

Return Unmatched Product Endurance

Flexibility is the keystone of Blue Ridge Technologies products.  Not only do Blue Ridge Technologies products integrate with almost any building automation system, Blue Ridge Technologies products easily integrate a multitude of standard field devices into the control scheme.  Blue Ridge Technologies Qwik-Kits offer even greater flexibility through Qwik-Kits compatibility with most industry standard lighting relays.

Expandability is not an option with Blue Ridge Technologies lighting control solutions, it is a requirement.  Most building owners want to know that they can expand their system in the future and Blue Ridge Technologies continues to deliver on its promise.  The vast majority of Blue Ridge Technologies ' business is from returning, satisfied customers.

Affordability of integration is within reach with Blue Ridge Technologies .  In the past, building owners experienced inflated costs for an integrated solution.  These inflated costs were due to the non-value add distribution channel.  Blue Ridge Technologies offers its built for integration solutions through a value-add distribution channel.  No more inflated integration costs.
