BPS communication with
DESIGO™ RX
Function sheet
DESIGO RX is a communicative individual room control system for HVAC
applications with integrated control for blinds and lighting. Communication takes
place via the LON bus (LonMark standard). If a VISONIK system is used for higher
room management, the building process station (BPS) server as the
communication master (RX master).
The DESIGO RX controllers on the LON bus are connected to the BPS as RX master
and to the VISONIK data and communication server (DCS) via the NIDES.RX interface.
The application software loaded determines the RX controller's functionality. There are
applications for fan coil and VAV systems, for heating/chilled ceilings and radiators,
and applications featuring integrated blinds and lighting control.

RX master
LON stands for local operating network, a global field bus defined by the LonMark
®
standard.
The RX master functions in the BPS either directly or indirectly allow for the following
higher functions:
• Coordination or control functions on the automation level (VISONIK BPS).
• Management functions on the management level (DESIGO INSIGHT or VISONIK
Insight).
The detailed functionality depends on the respective RX application and the number of
controllers integrated per RX master as well as on the level of integration of both
automation station or management station requested by the customer.
