HVAC Schedule Optimization
ADD-OG-AOS

OnGuard® Integration Add-on

The OnGuard integration allows the i-Vu building automation system and an OnGuard security system to work together. The OnGuard integration solution consists of three add-ons that you can purchase based on your integration needs.

It starts with the Data Connector add-on, which provides the basic communication connection that is needed to transfer data to and from the OnGuard system. The Data Connector is a required component for the HVAC Schedule Optimization add-on.

The HVAC Schedule Optimization add-on predicts and schedules occupancy based on data that comes from the OnGuard system, which promotes optimized energy usage and occupant comfort.

Key Features

  • Optimal Start Coupling - Supports comfort at typical occupancy, and covers “early birds”.
  • Rolling Average by “Day of Week” - Evaluates each day of the week separately to account for daily variances.
  • Dynamic Assessment - Responds to changes in occupancy profiles over time.
  • Exception Handling - Analyzes data for unusual occupancy patterns such as holidays and discards them to avoid influencing predictions.

Compatibility

  • i-Vu Pro v8.0 or newer
  • Building Integration Platform 1.11 or newer
  • OnGuard version must be:
    • v7.5 or later, using the OpenAccess interface
  • See requirements in OnGuard v1.1 Integration guide for more details
  • Requires Data Connector add-on (Part# ADD-OG-DIP)
