Commander
BMS integration
Overview
Commander is a Linux-based field controller for Building Management System (BMS) integration.
It offers a powerful IP-based BMS platform for customers requiring protocol translation between a BMS and our MxPro 4, MxPro 5, Axis EN and Axis AX fire control panels.
The interface provides bi-directional data transfer of a building’s ‘object’ information and connects to an Advanced network via our BMS/graphical gateway interface, permitting the handling of all network traffic and event prioritisation.
