SmartX AS-P Server

SmartX Server

Introduction
At the core of an EcoStruxure BMS is a SmartX server,
such as the SmartX AS-P server. The SmartX AS-P
server performs key functionality, such as control logic,
trend logging, and alarm supervision, and supports
communication and connectivity to the I/O and field
buses. The distributed intelligence of the EcoStruxure
BMS ensures fault tolerance in the system and provides
a fully featured user interface through WorkStation and
WebStation.
