Explore the powerful features that enable you to integrate your projects quicker and easier
ESSENTIALS
Create models to structure your data with different point of views (geography, tenants, subsystems..)
Automate every Niagara interactions with chained Niagara blocks.
Exchange data with outside platforms and databases. Connect to API.
Every component or widget is documented on the same format.
Learn by yourself with interactive elearning modules and step by step tutorials.
Don’t start from scratch and enjoy ready-to-use examples of station.
ALARM
Provide a light alarm console with the last 5 alarms with information, ack from the list directly.
Route alarm to the right recipients according to active schedules.
Create alarm synthesis by group of alarm classes to know how many are opened, acked…
Give access to a simplified alarm extension interface to change parameters very easily.
Build dashboards on alarms with KPI and charts showing distribution by alarm classes, floors..
Use a dedicated view to filter alarms from the database and select what information to display.
Use the generic alarm recipient to create a new ticket or a work order into a CMMS.
Send a notification when an alarm occurs in a messaging application like Slack.
Control Command
Adjust the curve graphically in HTML5 and define a default profile.
Enjoy a dozen additional conversions for cases not covered by Niagara or AxCommunity.
Create sequential logic with transitions, actions and sub-sequences.
Use enhance reporting features to personalize emails and report content.
Link your components using dropdown selections in the wiresheet.
Enjoy dozens of stand alone components to simplify your daily job.
Data modelING
Synchronize with BIM applications to retrieve the BIM model for spaces.
Create entities related together to form a graph representation. Make multiple graphs.
All created elements use vanilla Niagara tags and relations. Nothing proprietary!
Enjoy automated built hierarchies from data model to devices and points.
Use decision trees to avoid mistakes and to know which combination of tags to apply.
Import and get updates from the Building Semanctic Ontology project.
Tags are propagated automatically to alarm records so you can use them on reports & search
Tags are propagated automatically to histories so you can use them on reporting.
Share easily entities between stations , everything is handled under the hood.
Strong and powerful format syntax to browse relations and tags to get entities
Adapt your model structure according to the local environment.
Data consistency
Use a dedicated extension for pulse meters to get only rising values. No more bumps and holes!
Keep active only the last valid value known to avoid incoherent values.
Connect overridden status feedback coming from another point to the setting point.
Count the number of points in alarm, down, in fault status from a simple bql or neql query.
Create sum, average, min or max of multiple control points from a simple beql or neql query.
Create synthesis of synthesis with the same tools and do it across multiple stations.
User Interface
Drag & drop interface made of pages and pre-built widgets to create dynamic and responsive views.
Create dynamic menus, lists, dashboards from a Bql query. Personalize the content with models.
Display pre-configured charts based on histories tagging.
Display realtime data in a Pie chart, Column or Polar Web. You can group data together.
Use stylish widgets: slider, material CanvasPane and BorderPane, bound table…
Create a better logging experience with material design and lot of personalization.
Play any sound in a view with simple controls. No more need for an alarm console in every view 🙂
Draw zones to create new nodes in the model such as offices, meeting rooms…
Display sites on a map with markers. Define hyperlinks and a color by status.
AUTOMATIC PROGRAMMING
Define workflows with chained Niagara blocks to execute automatically tasks.
Almost every interaction you have in a Workplace has its block so you can automate it.
Don’t want to create blocks by hand? Use the tasks recorder and then play them back on selections.
Configure easily the block in the Wiresheet as traditional blocks. No coding skills needed!
Build workflows to create components, create links, set slots, add tags, set facets, set flags…
Use blocks to create categories, roles and users and assign components to categories.
Create views add graphics to them, set property values, define positioning…
Trigger any actions of a component, it even handles action parameters.
Make more advanced workflows with the use of condition operators like if, switch…
Trigger workflows on changes in the data mode, or define regular executions…
Trigger a workflow seamlessly on a selection of multiple components.
A block is missing? Create one with a couple of coding lines.
Excel import / export
Create any networks, devices, folders, points, extensions from a single Excel line row.
No need to configure templates on first basis, just export, make changes and then re-import.
Columns are dynamic to define new features to specifiy in the Excel.
Define tags and relations very easily: marker, string, number…
Configure device and point address for most of networks.
Assign your assets in Excel to the model
Use super easy declarations like network/device. The system knows what to create automatically.
Create models for anything. Lighter than Niagara templates.
API
Read realtime values. Set values, override or emergency override.
Read the full graph or just a part with all the additional information.
Use the API to create new assets in a station based on given models.
Read alarms from an uuid or from a query. Ack alarms or delete alarms.
Read raw historical data or get aggregated values for a specific period.
Create new entities in the model and define some properties like polygon coordinates or color.
Logs
Log users actions on points such as setting a value, overriding…
Log value changes from multiple points in a common group
Find easily issues, every major component has a logging option.
Enjoy a multi-stations log console in the workplace to check what’s happening in stations
Save logs into histories
Active-Framework is a fast growing toolbox for Tridium Niagara 4 for System Integrators who needs to go beyond the vanilla components.
