FieldServer Case Study - University of Arizona

Overview

Energy Management is very high on the priority list of any large establishment wishing to decrease overhead costs. When the University of Arizona in Tucson, Arizona was faced with this problem, they also realized that they must first gain access to the energy meters via the campus WAN (Wide Area Network) that was using BACnet IP. Most of the energy meters were using Modbus protocol. Joe Branaum, Manager of Integrated Systems Group for the University of Arizona, was interested in the FieldServer not only to integrate the energy meters into the campus SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition). The University utilizes BACnet as their campus-wide building automation communications protocol and needed a method to integrate information from over 435 buildings to BACnet IP.

“After evaluating several alternatives to meet this integration requirement we then performed a series of on-site testing of the devices,” said Joe Branaum. “We finally decided on using FieldServer to bring the various, Modbus, LonWorks and Simplex devices into the Campus SCADA. FieldServer outperformed all other solutions and proved to be a very tried and tested solution.”

FieldServer Case Study - University of Arizona



While energy management controls was the initial primary focus of this integration project, the University also had fire alarm panels, utility systems and other devices that needed to be integrated to the BACnet IP system. The University of Arizona has over 435 building in its vastly spread out Campus. Devices and systems manufactured by over 35 different vendors utilizing such protocols as Modbus, LonWorks and Simplex indicates the extent on the integration path from legacy devices into the new Web based SCADA, which is resident on the BACnet IP campus WAN. The web based SCADA enables Engineering, Maintenance and other facilities access into the system for on-line system access from any web browser on the Campus network which will increase visibility and turnaround time for the running & maintenance of the Campus Building Automation system.

Key personnel are provided with web enabled cell phone, which allows them access in to the SCADA system, thus a technician can receive an alarm on their cell phone and use the same cell phone to trouble shoot the application. If the technician needs further information from the SCADA system a laptop can be plugs into the cell phone for full access into the SCADA system.

So far they have brought approximately 38,000 points into the system and there are still more facilities needing to be integrated. The University has already shown that this integration has met their savings goal of payback in less than five years. Also they found that they could throttle back their fans and pumps when the building was not at peak load, extending the equipment life as well as saving energy. All this information allows University management to now have successful Energy Management to drive down costs and increase building efficiencies.

“Profiles” make it easy for the operator to map protocols with pre-defined configurations. Once a profile

(Configuration File) has been developed the user simply needs to open the FieldServer Configuration

Parameters page (included in each QuickServer, SlotServer or FS-B35Series gateway) and select the profile

desired from the list of available profiles. The advantage of course is that this feature makes it extremely easy

and fast to set up the gateway for a specific application. There are a number of profiles that have already been

established and are listed below.

Profiles benefits:

• Quickly configures your FieldServer gateway with the necessary configurations, without spending time

writing a profile every time it is needed.

• Each Device Profile can support one or multiple of the same or different controllers connected to the

FieldServer gateway.

• Makes sure that the configuration is correct each time it is used.

Procedure: 1. The user simply goes to the IP address for the specific FieldServer Gateway and it will open the

Configuration Parameters screen through the on-board web browser.

2. Select “Add” and choose from the list of available device profiles, add in the Node ID and save

3. The Configuration file is automatically generated from the profiles selected.

For an on-line demonstration please visit http://64.60.250.211

Available Device Profiles: The Library of Profiles is continually being expanded to include more equipment with common data sets. Let us

know if you have one to add. To see the current profiles that available, visit:

project manager had the following to say: “I would like to thank the FieldServer Support Team for all the help I received over the past month as I was trying to complete the integration of the Siemens MXL with the Yokogawa. The systems are fully networked via FieldServer and are functioning as designed. Neal and the other support members have done an excellent job with all the last minute configuration changes and helping me to understand how the FieldServer functions. I look forward to working with FieldServer in the future. Again, excellent job and thank you.” Project Engineer

2. Another customer that supports the a Corporate Offices and Research Park near Chicago had the

following to say: “Could please let your tech support service know how much I appreciate their help? Not only is your product easy to work with and extremely versatile, your customer service has been outstanding. There are at least 3 projects in the works that will be using these in the near future.” Account Team

3. Another new customer is a manufacturer of custom air handling units. We were used to take the Allen

Bradley Ethernet IP from their equipment PLCs out to building automation systems.

“The customer service you have provided us with on this job has been top-notch. We really appreciate all the help.” Project Manager “I really appreciate all your help this time, was really amazing all the service that you gave us. There is another job with Field Server that a guy in doing. For all this help we are more than happy with your services and Field Server also.” Engineer
