EIKON®for WebCTRL®
Universally Understood Graphical Programming


EIKON for WebCTRL is the most advanced graphical programming tool in the industry. With the click of a button, you can build complex control algorithms, diagnose problems, and run real-time or simulated operational data to evaluate the performance of a control sequence. EIKON makes it easy to understand control sequences as it does not use cryptic "line by line" computer code.

Key Features and Benefits

  • Intuitive graphical programming tool eliminates the need for complex programming or cryptic computer code.
  • Powerful library of microblocks (control functions) provide the flexibility to develop simple and complex control sequences.
  • Universally understood graphic symbols make control algorithms easy to understand.
  • Flexible simulation mode enables the user to view the control routines before system installation which simplifies development and troubleshooting.
  • Live Graphic Function Blocks (GFBs) are a valuable troubleshooting tool that allow system performance to be viewed in real time.
  • Complete integration with WebCTRL workstation software for seamless facility programming.
  • Instant project documentation captures development process.
  • An extensive library of sample GFBs provides pre-engineered solutions to many typical HVAC control applications. They can be used as-is, or easily modified in EIKON to meet special requirements.
  • Complete compatibility and functionality with BACnet®, ASHRAE's industry standard protocol, for programming BACnet objects.


Specifications

EIKON for WebCTRL offers sophisticated programming features to make operating your building simple. With EIKON, you can display simulated and real-time performance evaluations for control algorithms, assuring precise control over expensive mechanical equipment and tenant occupied spaces. You also gain the ability to diagnose and resolve problems more easily.

The EIKON Microblock Library was specifically created for building DDC control applications. The

microblocks represent devices commonly used in conventional control systems. Without special programming expertise or line-by-line coding, you can drag and drop microblocks to create a sequence of control operations. Because EIKON relies on universally understood graphical symbols, it offers a unique combination of power and simplicity. EIKON software requires an SVGA 1024 by 768 display resolution.



The equivalent control loop written in cryptic "line-by-line" computer code:

10 A=(TEMP;AI)-(PID;SP)
20 IF A<5 THEN 30 ELSE 80
30 IF A<-5 THEN 40 ELSE 80
40 (PID;PI)=0 
50 (PID;PE)=0 
60 (PID;RP)=(PID;DP) 
70 GOTO 20
80 B=A*(PID;DP)/100 
90 IF (PID;DP)>=100 THEN 120 ELSE 100
100 IF (PID;DP)<=0 THEN 120 ELSE 110
110 (PID;PI)=A+(PID;PE)/2*(PID;IC)+(PID;PI)
120 C=(PID;PI)/100
130 (PIC;PE)=A
140 A=(PIC;RP)+B+C
150 IF A>=0 THEN 170 ELSE 160
160 A=0
170 IF A<=100 THEN 190 ELSE 180
180 A=100
190 IF (SAFETY;BV)==1 THEN 200 ELSE 210
200 A=0
210 (PID;DP)=A
220 SWAIT 1
230 GOTO 10
