Saia PCD® systems
h
On-board protocols
Saia PCD® systems are based on the proprietary SBC operating system – Saia PCD® COSinus.
The operating system makes certain protocols directly available, in particular Web and IT
services such as S-Net. These protocols can be used on every
Saia PCD®
controller. Depending
on the protocol, FBox libraries are available in the application program.

Communication drivers in the application program
At the core of every Saia PCD® is a PLC controller. The application program can be freely
defined making it possible to realise a number of infrastructure automation protocols
directly in the application program. This provides almost limitless flexibility.
h
Communication options as an operating system extension
For many protocols it is worthwhile offering them as an option, particularly when the
protocols are not required globally in every application and they require a lot of memory in
the controller. For example, BACnet® and L
ON
W
ORKS
® are available for extending the
operating system. These are software components which are used as integral components
of the operating system, which differentiates them from gateways.
Saia PCD® systems offer solutions for almost all conventional building automation system protocols. Depending on the protocol
and interface, they are already integrated in the Saia PCD® operating system, or they can be installed in the application program.
Saia PCD® controllers can therefore also be used as gateways between building services which would otherwise remain separate.
