CHAPTER 6 BUILDING MANAGEMENT SYSTEM FUNDAMENTALS ;INTRODUCTION This section provides information on the fundamen-tals of Building Management Systems (BMS). The objective of a BMS is to centralize and simplify the monitoring, operation, and management of a building or buildings. This is done to achieve more efficient building operation at reduced labor and energy costs and provide a safe and more comfortable working environment for building occupants. In the process of meeting these objectives, the BMS has evolved from simple supervisory control to totally integrated;computerized control. Some of the advantages of a BMS are as follows: — Simpler operation with routine and repetitive functions programmed for automatic operation — Reduced operator training time through on-screen instructions and supporting graphic displays — Faster and better responsiveness to occupant needs and trouble conditions — Reduced energy cost through centralized management of control and energy management;programs — Better management of the facility through historical records, maintenance management programs, and automatic alarm reporting — Flexibility of programming for facility needs, size, organization, and expansion requirements — Improved operating-cost record keeping for allocating to cost centers and/or charging individual occupants — Improved operation through software and hardware integration of multiple subsystems such;as direct digital control (DDC), fire alarm, security, access control, or lighting control When minicomputers and mainframes were the only computers available, the BMS was only used on larger office buildings and college campuses. With the shift to microprocessor-based controllers for DDC, the cost of integrating building management functions into the controller is so small that a BMS is a good investment for commercial buildings of all types and sizes.
