Johnson Controls Releases Update to Building Automation System
Johnson Controls announced an update to Metasys, the company’s building automation system.
The system’s 12.0 release is designed for fast troubleshooting in the field, to maintain the latest IT security and networking standards and to reduce installation time and costs. It also provides its users with older software a significant opportunity to upgrade their systems.
The 12.0 release improves system security by following the new BACnet Secure Connect interoperability standard for current IT security protocols, helping to further secure communications among Metasys IP components. In addition, expanded FIPS 140-2 Level 1 compliance, a U.S. government security standard, ensures the system meets current government standards.
The updated release creates an opportunity for existing SMP users to future-proof their investment by migrating to the Metasys User Interface. To support this modernization opportunity, Metasys UI now includes familiar SMP views and capabilities.
