Intrinsyc Software announced that it has signed a contract with Johnson Controls, a maker of building automation systems to integrate Intrinsyc's device provisioning and management software into two controllers used in the Johnson Controls Metasys building automation system. The contract is worth more than $250,000 (Canadian), according to Intrinsyc.Intrinsyc says its CerfWorks device...
management software will be used to remotely provision, download, and update operating system and application software in controllers running the Windows CE and Windows XP Embedded OSes, within the Johnson Controls Metasys systems. The software will enable building managers to remotely update a facility's HVAC systems management software running on devices located throughout the building without sending a maintenance person to manually update each device on-site, according. The increased control over the devices and systems will allow building managers to make timely facility management decisions, ensure building systems operate more efficiently, and ultimately enable them to effectively manage building maintenance costs.
