[Lyon, France, November 17, 2017] - Distech Controls, an Acuity Brands company, and innovation leader in energy management solutions, announced a new way of designing, operating and managing buildings with its ECLYPSE connected BACnet/IP and Wi-Fi product series.

The ECLYPSE connected BACnet/IP and Wi-Fi HVAC controller series and ENVYSION responsive HTML5 web-based design and visualisation interface from Distech Controls provide powerful connectivity, advanced control, monitoring and analysis, while creating value for Internet of Things (IoT) buildings.

Beyond establishing an open network facilitating Building Management Solutions, and distributing IP throughout the facility and rooms, the controllers’ RESTful API allows for data exchange. Utilising data readily available from the ECLYPSE controllers, RESTful API applications can be custom designed to best serve the needs of building owners.

IoT connectivity allows for the interchange of information and data on a common platform via IP-enabled objects and devices. Applied to building management systems, the IoT delivers integrated and optimised building services in one holistic system over IP.

“With Distech Controls’ ECLYPSE documented RESTful API building owners can efficiently access the controller’s data to create custom or add to existing mobile apps, dashboards and analytic tools, to offer cutting-edge services that fit with the use of the building, meet occupant needs and facilitate maintenance for facility managers.” said Mathieu Houle, Global Product Director at Distech Controls.

In addition, ECLYPSE empowers building owners with the opportunity to connect systems, technology and people throughout the building’s lifecycle to:

• Offer occupant services and help improve their well-being with personalised comfort parameters, real time room booking and dedicated building mobile apps
• Optimise space management and the building’s cost-effectiveness with powerful Building Management Systems (BMS) for an improved occupation rate
• Ease and simplify the building’s performance, maintenance and operation while reducing its energy consumptions.
