What does Fixsus mean by an ‘open concept’?

By an open concept, Fixsus means that an installation is not made dependent on a single closed brand, product family, or communication environment.

Open at different levels

The openness is not only found in the communication protocols. The hardware, programming, visualization, and data are also structured in such a way that the client is not unnecessarily tied to a single supplier.

TIBA3 utilizes open and widely used protocols, such as Modbus, BACnet, KNX, DALI-2, and M-Bus. This allows devices and technical installations from different manufacturers to be integrated within a single system.

Freedom in product choice

The client can choose the most suitable product for each application and is not obliged to purchase all components within a single brand or product family.

This also ensures that future replacements and expansions remain more manageable.

Access to the installation

The installation is not intentionally locked down technically. Hardware, project information, and interfaces are managed so that a technically qualified party can maintain or expand the installation at a later date.

Technical conditions

Openness does not mean that every device can automatically communicate with every other system. A connection must be technically possible and sufficiently documented.
