Carrier Launches i-Vu Pro v8.5 Software
Carrier has released its latest i-Vu Pro v8.5 software for the i-Vu building automation system. The digital lifecycle solution delivers an operator information report for added security, a staged download process for more efficient controller updates and message queueing telemetry transport integration.
The operator information report provides facilities staff with visibility into who is using the i-Vu system. The report includes detailed information on operator configuration and security policy compliance.
At a glance, facilities staff can see which users are active. Based on report details, they can remove inactive users, modify user access rights and change user privileges to help keep the i-Vu system secure.
The software includes an efficient staged download process for upgrading controller firmware, improving serviceability for customers. While traditional downloads disrupt HVAC equipment operation throughout the entire download, the new staged process splits the download into discrete steps, which helps reduce downtime of connected HVAC equipment. Downtime can be independently and proactively scheduled for non-critical times to minimize customer disruption.
