Intesis Protocol Translators for Building Automation

HMS Networks' Intesis is one of the market leaders providing gateways for building automation. With more than 20 years of experience, Intesis protocol translators bring cutting-edge connectivity solutions to any integration challenge. Covering all the major standards in the industry (KNX, BACnet, Modbus, DALI, M-BUS, ASCII, LonWorks, and PROFINET), Intesis gateways enable fast and straightforward integration of any BMS applications such as HVAC control, smart lighting systems, metering solutions, routers, or industrial connectivity. The intuitive design of the Intesis makes it an easy-to-use configuration tool that enables powerful configurations to facilitate installation, configuration, and commissioning processes. Users can install this configuration software (MAPS) on their PC to use it with all standard Intesis protocol translators free of charge with no hidden costs. Each integration is different, but with MAPS, users do not need to start from scratch every time they begin a project, thanks to its pre-defined templates and automatic discovery features to reduce integration time. Furthermore, Intesis MAPS includes advanced configuration settings to ensure users can work beyond the standard with any BMS and integrate those challenging devices that nobody else can. With Intesis, users have a one-stop shop for all their integration needs. These products have highly desirable certifications like BACnet (BTL) or DALI-2 (DiiA) and the UL mark to guarantee the highest communication and quality standards.
