Products concept
One of Siemens Building Technologies
’
(SBT) primary goals is to be able to provide
complete integration solutions to our customers. Complete integration includes fire
safety, security, and building automation systems built by various Siemens and third-
party suppliers.
As the needs and expectations of the market continue to advance at the pace of tech-
nology, SBT aims to provide products that meet those needs and expectations.
Siemens
’
family of products are designed to serve the market for small to medium-size
local systems, campus-size configurations (LAN applications), and for geographical
networks (WAN applications). Additionally, in cases where another supplier is making
the integration, Siemens provides open system solutions enabling integration of our
subsystems.
See the following to determine which product or combination of products best suit your
customer
’
s needs.
1.1
Danger management systems
Siemens offers the following Danger Management System (DMS) solutions:
MM8000 Management Station:
The MM8000 provides integrated management and handling, decentralised system
operation and centralised maintenance. The MM8000 is designed to replace older
management stations such as LMSmodular, LMS6, and DMS7000.
MM8000 also offers the following advantages:
–
Flexibility
–
The system can be built and configured to fit different situations.
–
Scalability
–
MM8000 will easily grow to support more subsystems, disciplines,
and stations as needed.
–
Reliability
–
The MM8000 is based on the concept of autonomous subsystems
and distributed control. Furthermore, redundant configurations can be imple-
mented.
–
Security
–
The operator will have access to exactly what is defined.
–
3
rd
Party integration
–
The MM8000 architecture allows for open system solu-
tions and for the integration of 3
rd
party devices.
MK8000 OPC Server for Subsystems:
The MK8000 OPC Server product concept provides open system solutions to our
customers, enabling our subsystems to be integrated into 3
rd
party management
systems.
The objective is to offer the OPC Data Access (DA) Server product in parallel with
complete offerings including our MM8000 management station software.
The OPC DA Server product allows us to technically integrate FS subsystems into
building automation unit head-ends, thereby supporting the SBT Total Building So-
lutions offering.
