3. PG010, Smart-House Controller Jens Neigaard10.04.2008 Introduction Why this launch ? The trends in the last few years within home- and building automation made it clear that a new hardware and software platform for our Master Generator (now Smart-House Controller) was needed: With the new Controller we are meeting the demand from the market for an easy-to-use configuration tool, which generates professional system documentation automatically. The systems are getting larger and larger, and in many cases one Master Generator does not provide enough I/O-points, and thereby the users have been forced to network them. This is a rather complex and unflexible exercise, however. With the new Controller we are using cost-effective expansion modules instead, and we are enabling the functions of the entire system to be programmed in just one Controller. The demand for new functions is growing continuously, and they are getting more sophisticated. The structure of the Master Generator was no longer suitable to fulfil this demand, there has been too much patching. With the new Smart-House Controller we have developed a flexible and future-oriented platform enabling us to develop new functions in a fast, reliable and cost-effective way.
