05 · Control

Schedules and setpoints, run on site.

Monitoring shows where heating, cooling and lighting run when nobody is there. Control closes the loop. Schedules and setpoints are set centrally in the Wia dashboard and executed by the site gateway, so every building keeps to the hours it is actually used.

Existing controllers stay in place. Wia writes schedules and setpoints to them over BACnet or Modbus, controls VRF systems over their own protocol, and switches lighting circuits at the panel. There is no controls replacement project.

How Control works

Set. Run. Confirm.

SCHEDULE21°C

01

Set

Occupancy schedules, setpoints and holiday calendars are set per site or per group of sites in the dashboard.

RUNS LOCALLY

02

Run

The gateway runs them locally, so the building keeps to its schedule even if the connection drops.

SENT 21°CREAD 21°C

03

Confirm

Every command is checked against the equipment's reported state and written to an audit log. The effect shows in the site's KPIs the next day.

Inside Control

Everything Control does, in one place.

HVAC

Schedules and setpoints written to the existing HVAC controller over BACnet or Modbus.

VRF

Native control of VRF indoor and outdoor units, with operating status and faults read back.

Lighting

Contactor command and status for each lighting circuit, with local schedules.

Audit log

Who changed what, when, and what the equipment reported back.

On site

From the dashboard to the plant room, and back.

A schedule set in the Wia dashboard passes through the Wia cloud to the edge gateway on site, which drives the HVAC controller, the VRF system and the lighting panel. Every command comes back confirmed against what the equipment reports, and lands in the audit log.

No controls replacement project. No change to your IT network.

FAQ

Common questions

Do we need to replace our BMS?

No. Wia works alongside it, writing schedules and setpoints to the controllers you already have.

What happens if the connection drops?

Schedules and holiday calendars keep running on the gateway, so the building keeps to its hours until the connection returns.

Does Control touch our IT network?

No. The gateway has its own Wia-managed cellular link, so nothing joins your corporate network and there is no firewall change.
