Questions

Building automation: common questions

Which brands?
Concepts apply to Honeywell, Siemens, Johnson Controls, Schneider, Trane and Distech; the hands-on modules use open BACnet with Python.
Is BMS the same as PLC programming?
It shares the logic but uses BACnet, KNX and DDC controllers and a different vocabulary of HVAC, lighting and access control. The courses start from that vocabulary.
