This webinar provides an overview of how to build effective building automation systems (BAS) and highlights ICP DAS USA hardware that helps engineers integrate HVAC, lighting, energy monitoring, and safety functions into one centralized control strategy. The presentation explains key BAS benefits—lower operating costs, improved comfort, longer equipment life, and better visibility—and then walks through practical ways to automate “hard-to-integrate” building devices using infrared (IR) control modules for AV equipment, projectors, and air conditioners. It also covers local operator interfaces using TouchPad touch screen controllers, advanced lighting control using a DALI gateway and PIR occupancy sensors, and power monitoring strategies using smart power meters, multi-circuit panel meters, and power data concentrators/displays for dashboards, alarms, and reporting. The webinar wraps up with building protection topics like liquid leak detection, plus examples of how these subsystems can be tied into SCADA/building management software for trending, alerts, and remote access.
