SmartDriver and Smart Connector enhance the openness for EcoStruxure Building operation "EBO" BMS system. They enable integration between EBO and 3rd party systems, even via not supported or nonstandard protocols.
SmartDriver:
SmartDriver enables you to create a customized interface to monitor and control 3rd party devices from EBO server.
The following block diagram shows a SmartDriver Interface and a SmartDriver Driver. The SmartDriver Interface (similar in concept to other protocol interfaces such as Modbus and BACnet) is part of EcoStruxure Building Operation software and enables you to create SmartDriver objects in the System Tree pane. The SmartDriver Driver is installed on the server drive and provides the network communications control. More information at Web Help SmartDriver Overview.
Licensing:
Currently, all SmartDrivers are created by the engineering group in the UK. All pricing, installation and licensing will be handled through that office. The ASCII driver does not require any licenses; it is a tool for users to create their own interfaces.
Smart Connector:
A development framework that simplifies and accelerates integrations with third-party systems or other data sources. It is an open, extensible and configurable application framework that allows developers to create innovative new capabilities, applications, and solutions which extend and enhance EcoStruxure Building solutions.
The Smart Connector itself runs outside the EBO server and consume or server data to EBO server vie the EcoStruxure web services "EWS".
