BASC-E36 36 Point Linux Controller

The BASC-E36 is a 36-point Edge Controller that supports BACnet/IP client/server operation over a built-in two-port Ethernet switch connection or BACnet MS/TP over an EIA-485 port. For single-zone applications, the BAScontrol-E36's wall setter port supports Contemporary Controls' BASWS digital wall setter. The controller complies with the B-ASC device profile, having a convenient mix of sixteen universal inputs, four binary inputs, eight analog outputs, and eight binary outputs. The BAScontrol-E36 uses screw terminal block connectors. The controller has the necessary computing power and input/output (I/O) point count to execute recommended advanced sequences published in ASHRAE Guideline 36-2018 High-Performance Sequences of Operation for HVAC Systems (GL-36). The BAScontrol-E36 runs on a Linux platform and has edge-connected features, such as a cloud connector to Azure IoT Central, a JavaScript Object Notation (JSON)-node programmable dashboard, email alarms and notifications, and access to an online weather service.

The BASC-E36 is fully web page-configurable and freely programmable using Sedona's drag-and-drop programming methodology of assembling components onto a wiresheet to create applications. The unit can be programmed using the Sedona Application Editor (SAE) in Contemporary Controls' free BAScontrol Toolset. A free Sedona N4 driver is available for programming via N4 Workbench. Rugged design, low profile, and wide temperature operation make it suitable for indoor or outdoor use.
