ECB-VAVS
BACnet B-ASC 9-Point Overview
Programmable Controllers
The ECB-VAVS controllers are microprocessor-based programmable
variable air volume (VAV) controllers designed to control cooling only
and cooling with reheat single duct variable air volume boxes.
®
Each controller uses the BACnet MS/TP LAN communication proto-
®
col and is BTL -Listed as BACnet Application Specific Controllers (B-
ASC).
