Building management system relies on 4 types sensory information to make a control decision
Analog inputs : are used to read a variable measurement. Examples are temperature, humidity and
pressure sensor which could be thermistor, 4-20 mA, 0-10 volt or platinum resistance thermometer
(resistance temperature detector), or wireless sensors.
Digital input : indicates if a device is turned on or not. Some examples of a digital input would be , an airDigital input : indicates if a device is turned on or not. Some examples of a digital input would be , an air
flow switch, or a volt-free relay contact.
Analog output : controls the speed or position of a device, such as a variable frequency drive, a I-P
(current to pneumatics) transducer, or a valve or damper actuator. An example is a chilled water valve
opening up 25% to maintain a setpoint.
Digital outputs : are used to open and close relays and switches. An example would be to turn on the
parking lot lights when a photocell indicates it is dark outside.
A typical Mid Size Building may have 800 -2000 sensory points also known and I/O points.

What is a Building Automation System?
A BMS system collects the operating information required for intelligent building
management.
It analyses the operation of the building systems by viewing all important
temperatures, humidities and equipment status.
Further to collection of these data, the BMS presents these data on the screen with
full color
• Automates some control strategies such as turning equipment On/Off according
to a time schedule – ensures energy savings
• Allows an operator sitting at the BMS work station to view key information about
the building – improves building operationsthe building – improves building operations
• Allows an operator sitting at the BMS work station to control some of the
equipment in the building – improves building operations allowing remote control
/ over-ride where necessary
• Maintains an audit trail of what happened and when it happened – improves
building management by means reporting and traceability
• Maintains historical data for selected information (like temperature, humidity
..etc) – improves building management by means reporting and traceability
• Alerts the operator at the BMS work station when readings fall outside of normal
range (i.e. breaker trips, temperature too warm, etc.) – improves building
management by having a faster reaction time to problems
• By doing the above and more a BMS system saves manpower, ensures productive
occupants (especially in an office environment), prolongs equipment life, and the
most important of all saves energy. diagrams (graphics) for the ease of
understanding.
BMS Protocols
BMS system manufacturer divided predominantly into two different
protocols, mentioned below-
• BACnet - A Data Communication Protocol for Building Automation and
Control Networks developed by ASHRAE. It gives freedom to client to
connect all BACnet compliant devices and ease in commissioning &
configuring.configuring.
• Lonworks -Lon Works is actually a family of products originally developed
by the Echelon Corporation. At the core of this technology is a proprietary
communications protocol called Lon Talk. Here one needs to buy license for
each individual controllers & devices. Commissioning requires software key
(dongle) all the time for commissioning & configuration.
• Modbus is developed by Modicon in 1979. It is used to establish master-
slave/client-server communication between intelligent devices. It is a de
facto standard, truly open and the most widely used network protocol in the
industrial environment and devices.
BMS System Architecture –
• IP- 1 Tier
Where all controllers are connected
to HMI on LAN.
RS 485 – 2Tier
Level1-: where all controllers are connected
to each other in daisy chain fashion & then
after they connect to router or gateway.
Level2-: When router or gateway is connected
to any HMI for monitoring & controlling.to any HMI for monitoring & controlling.

BMS Design Aspects
Basic data required before you start system design:
1. Input / Output summary for all subsystems, which need to either monitor or control.
2. Selection of appropriate field devices.
3. All integration devices & respective point details which has to be monitored.
4. Signal & Communication cable route layout (at least tentative).
5. Panel (Enclosure for controllers) location, BMS PC location.
Steps to follow for designing-:
1. Select the suitable controllers required for the requirement.
2. Select the enclosure to mount those controllers, which includes power supply for controllers & other wirings for field device
connection.
3. Now start with the AHU designing which includes signal & control cabling requirement for different field device selection as
per the requirement.
4. A typical AHU generally requires following field devices-Temperature cum Humidity sensor (or only Temp) in return & supply
duct. Differential Pressure Switch (For Air) across the AHU Fan, Filter, Actuators for AHU Line.
5. A typical AHU will have following wiring connection- Connection to all Field devices, Connection to electrical panels as per
I/O, connection to VFD’s.
6. A typical Chiller side will have following field devices-Immersion type temperature sensor (for supply & return pipes),
Butterfly Valve & Actuator in each chiller supply, differential Pressure sensor across main supply & return .
7. A typical chiller will have connection to all field devices, chiller panels, Pump VFD’s.
BMS Commissioning Aspects –
Air Side Commissioning- It comprises individual commissioning of AHU (Air handling Unit), CSU
(Ceiling Suspended Unit), Fans & associated field devices.
• We need to measure each field devices value during AHU commissioning as first task to make
sure all field devices are working & then all points can be put in a logic.
Water side commissioning – It comprises individual commissioning of Water cooled chillers, Air
cooled chillers, Cooling towers, Primary pumps, Secondary pumps, VFD’s & associated field
devicesdevices
• We need to measure each field device value & other connected points value individually before
putting them into logic.
Integration of Air side & water side in a logic-This is to integrate all independent system in logic.
Which can work automatically based on the user defined parameters without any conflict of
individual system functionality.
BMS Commissioning Aspects
Integration of monitoring points-
• This is to collect all data in BMS system for the purpose of monitoring only.
• PICS details i.e mapping details to be taken from respective equipment supplier.
• Protocol significance for integration purpose-whenever we say one device supports Modbus over
RS485, here RS 485 signifies physical channel (cable type) & communication port while Modbus
signifies data pattern. Therefore all devices in a loop must support same protocol & configure to
the same.
• Cable used for integration is 2 core x 1.5 sqmm shielded• Cable used for integration is 2 core x 1.5 sqmm shielded
• All monitored devices have to be looped in daisy chain connection to RS-485 port. Devices can
support different communication over different protocols. We need to make sure whenever making
a loop all devices should support same communication & protocol type. for instance Modbus over
RS485.
Client User interface (UI)
• Client can change parameters as temperature & humidity from UI as per the comfort level & all
basic information can be viewed on the UI.

A typical AHU generally requires following field devices-Temperature cum Humidity sensor (or only Temp) in return & supply duct. Differential Pressure Switch (For Air) across the AHU Fan, Filter, Actuators for AHU Line. 5. A typical AHU will have following wiring connection- Connection to all Field devices, Connection to electrical panels as per I/O, connection to VFD’s. 6. A typical Chiller side will have following field devices-Immersion type temperature sensor (for supply & return pipes), Butterfly Valve & Actuator in each chiller supply, differential Pressure sensor across main supply & return . 7. A typical chiller will have connection to all field devices, chiller panels, Pump VFD’s.
  • 48. BMS Commissioning Aspects – Air Side Commissioning- It comprises individual commissioning of AHU (Air handling Unit), CSU (Ceiling Suspended Unit), Fans & associated field devices. • We need to measure each field devices value during AHU commissioning as first task to make sure all field devices are working & then all points can be put in a logic. Water side commissioning – It comprises individual commissioning of Water cooled chillers, Air cooled chillers, Cooling towers, Primary pumps, Secondary pumps, VFD’s & associated field devicesdevices • We need to measure each field device value & other connected points value individually before putting them into logic. Integration of Air side & water side in a logic-This is to integrate all independent system in logic. Which can work automatically based on the user defined parameters without any conflict of individual system functionality.
  • 49. BMS Commissioning Aspects Integration of monitoring points- • This is to collect all data in BMS system for the purpose of monitoring only. • PICS details i.e mapping details to be taken from respective equipment supplier. • Protocol significance for integration purpose-whenever we say one device supports Modbus over RS485, here RS 485 signifies physical channel (cable type) & communication port while Modbus signifies data pattern. Therefore all devices in a loop must support same protocol & configure to the same. • Cable used for integration is 2 core x 1.5 sqmm shielded• Cable used for integration is 2 core x 1.5 sqmm shielded • All monitored devices have to be looped in daisy chain connection to RS-485 port. Devices can support different communication over different protocols. We need to make sure whenever making a loop all devices should support same communication & protocol type. for instance Modbus over RS485. Client User interface (UI) • Client can change parameters as temperature & humidity from UI as per the comfort level & all basic information can be viewed on the UI.
