SmartServer 2.0
The Smart Way to Save
Energy and Lower
Operating Costs
The SmartServer is a versatile smart
energy manager that connects control
devices to IP-based applications such
as enterprise energy management,
demand response programs, street light
management systems, and high-value
remote asset management programs.
The server not only allows you to access, control,
and monitor electronic devices, but also lets you use
data intelligently to save energy, improve operations,
and lower maintenance costs. Easy to deploy and
manage, and capable of both local and remote
control, the SmartServer offers unparalleled flexibility.
Use it as a standalone server, or integrate it with the
control system of your choice. With built-in drivers for
industry-standard protocols like Echelon’s LonWorks®
technology, Web services SOAP/XML, Modbus, M-Bus,
digital I/O, and pulsecount input, and custom driver
support for everything else, the SmartServer offers
unprecedented connectivity at no extra cost.
