Commander (BMS integration)

Overview

Commander is a field controller for BMS integration. It offers a powerful IP-based BMS/Graphics interface for customers requiring protocol translation between a BMS and the MxPro 5 series of addressable fire control panels and remote terminals.

The interface is an integral part of the Ad-NeT network, permitting the handling of all network traffic and event prioritisation, via a PC, using a simple RS232 connection.

Multiple interfaces can be connected to the network catering for sites requiring control from a number of graphical PCs.
