by Shane Henson — August 22, 2011—QA Graphics’ alliance partner, Lynxspring Inc., has made QA Graphics’ BAS Image Module even more accessible by including a pre-installed version of the module in the new release of their JENEsys ProBuilder software for Tridium’s Niagara AX platform. This addition will save time for NiagaraAX users who are interested in installing the building automation systems image module, and allow them to gain access to the module more quickly, thus permitting more efficient modeling of facilities’ mechanical systems.
Lynxspring is a technology company that addresses building automation control requirements with a focus on interoperability. Using Tridium’s Web-based NiagaraAX software in an embedded platform, Lynxspring provides normalized interoperability with standard and open protocols, and many legacy systems.
As an industry leader in the design of system graphics, QA Graphics developed the BAS Image Module in conjunction with their 3D Symbol Library to provide more appealing and realistic graphics than provided by default with the Niagara AX platform. The module allows AX users to build their graphics, pull in the pre-built animations, and bind the points and animations. It can be opened though Niagara AX’s palette sidebar, similar to the existing graphics, where the user can drag and drop the symbols onto their canvas, making the process of assembling high-end graphics simpler and faster. With over 310 static and 95 animated graphics, the symbols can be used to create over 95 percent of all major mechanical systems. Key symbols include boilers, chillers, dampers, filters, piping, fans, cooling towers, generators, valves, ductwork, coils and more.
Now, with the pre-configured module available on Lynxspring’s ProBuilder software, Lynxspring business partners simply need to purchase an engineering license to access unlimited use of the graphics at their workstation. Standard licensing fees will apply when moving graphics from a workstation to JACE or supervisor devices.
