Saia PCD® systems
Onboard protocols
Saia PCD® systems are based on SBC's proprietary Saia PCD® COSinus operating system.
The operating system makes certain protocols directly available, in particular Web and IT
services as well 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 fully configured
to enable numerous infrastructure automation protocols to be integrated direct into the applica-
tion program. This provides almost limitless flexibility.
Communication options as an operating system expansion
For many protocols it is worth offering them as an option, particularly if the protocols are not
required globally in every application and require a large amount of memory in the controller.
For example, BACnet® and LonWorks® are available to expand 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 supplied with the Saia PCD® operating system or can be installed in the application program. Saia PCD® controllers
can therefore also be used as gateways between building services and plant which would otherwise remain separate.
