Wireless mesh network technology

The FACS™ Wireless Control System is based on the Time Synchronized Mesh Protocol (TSMP™ ) developed by Dust Networks™. TSMP provides the FACS™ system with a number of key features:

all FACS™ wireless control modules (WCMs) and wireless sensor modules (WSMs) are mesh nodes, simplifying network commissioning

WSMs can run on batteries for years, increasing flexibility

FACS™ wireless devices use frequency hopping, improving reliability and security

FACS™ wireless devices use TDMA for channel access rather than CSMA, improving reliability

Database technology

Every Federspiel Supervisory Controller (FSC) has a secure, stable, SQL database. This approach simplifies system integration. We provide system integrators with the correct SQL synatax for our database, and permissions to access it. Acceptable drivers include ODBC and JDBC.

Web server technology

Every FSC has an Apache web server, which is the most commonly used web server on the internet. Apache is secure, reliable, efficient, and customizable.

Machine-to-machine (M2M) technology

FSCs and WWGs communicate using XML-RPC. FSCs communicate with demand response servers using SOAP.
