WEB-BASED INTERACTION WITH BUILDING AUTOMATION

摘要

Web-based interaction with building automation is provided. The interaction, regardless of the access point, is browser based. For IP access, hypertext protocol (http) communications of the browser (76) are performed. The webenabled controller (22) serves responses with building automation information. For non-IP access, a web-server (74) operating as an application in the same device (20) as the browser (76) intercepts the http communication and reformats the communication as appropriate for the non-IP access. Based on a response from the building automation system, the device local web-server (74) responds to the browser (76). For communicating across different types of networks in the building automation system, controllers (22) may use the embedded web-server (74) to reformat as needed and route requests. The same look, feel, functionality, and/or usability may be provided using the browser (76) regardless of the connectivity to the building automation network.
