Natural ventilator

Colt Firelight glazed, natural ventilator installs in a glass atrium or directly onto a roof. The
dual-purpose product provides buildings with day-to-day ventilation and smoke control to aid
building evacuation in the event of a fire. Available in single-or double-leaf design and with control options for automated climate control, the product provides fresh air and natural daylight.
Designed for high aerodynamic, acoustic, and thermal performance, the ventilator is available
in a range of standard designs. Powder-coat finish can be specified. A thermally broken design
minimizes heat loss for maximum energy efficiency. The ventilator uses standard manual operation and can be specified for electric or pneumatic operation.

Access-control software
BIM software

BIM Assure 1.3 software expands access to building data. Features provide opportunities for AEC firms,
consultants, and owners to create an integrated BIM data platform for control over building data throughout the entire building lifecycle. The software is a collaborative, cloud solution using intelligent rules to
identify and resolve issues to improve data quality. A Web app provides a common data environments
that allow shared models to streamline design, construction workflow, and project delivery. Capabilities
include focused data access, support for IFC BIM Data Standard, and enhanced reporting.

VAX 2.9 update for VAX Access Control software provides centralized monitoring and management of access to doors, elevators, and other protected
spaces located throughout facilities of any size, including multi-site installation. A web-based interface provides users with complete and secure control
from PCs, laptops, tablets, and smart phones. The software creates custom
map-based interfaces that display physical placement of VAX devices, through
which users can call up associated data and video. Map images can be
imported as .png, .gif, or .jpg files and then populated with icons representing
doors, elevators, inputs, outputs, and cameras. Clicking on an icon provides
real-time status of the device. A User Time Tracking Report provides a summary of total hours that specific individuals spent within a defined area.

Building design, analysis software

TRACE 3D Plus software is built on the Department
of Energy's EnergyPlus calculation engine, allowing
users to create more accurate and credible building
models. The intuitive interface uses drag-and-drop
components and 2D or 3D visual model validation.
The software integrates component and system
sizing with energy and economic analysis, allowing
user movement from project plans and files to design
and energy analysis without entering data multiple
times. An extensive built-in library and expanded
building templates assist model creation. Trane
Official Product Selection System (TOPSS) software
is integrated to provide comprehensive analysis for
HVAC system design.

Multi-directional cameras

Wisenet P series multi-sensor/multi-directional
cameras are available in 8 and 20 megapixel.
Applications include parking lots, shopping-mall
entrances, lobbies, concourses, and airports.
The cameras provide wide area coverage in
extreme detail with just one camera. The series
includes the PNM-9080VQ with four individual
2 megapixel sensors for a resolution capable
of 150 dB WDR and 60 fps/sensor. Advanced
video analytics, backlight compensation, True
Day/Night, and digital image stabilization with
a gyro sensor are built in.
