DESCRIPTION 1,750 Points or 64 Devices (TCP/IP and/or RS485)
The MATRIX is an IoT (Internet of Things) embedded ASPECT®
MATRIX-296
Control Engine designed to provide flexible site control
applications for medium to large scale building automation 2,000 Points or 96 Devices (TCP/IP and/or RS485)
systems. It can be used to connect with Cylon CB Series and AAM MAT-LP-8 (License Upgrade)
NB Series of BACnet® MS/TP field level controllers. The MATRIX
250 Points or 8 Devices (TCP/IP and/or RS485)
supports serial communications protocols such as BACnet®, AAM
PUP, and Modbus®. Additionally, TCP/IP communications using PLATFORM MAXIMUMS
FT/Net, BACnet®, Modbus® and Cylon’s Unitron (when used with 2,500 Points or 128 Devices
the UC32.netK) protocols are available when using the RJ-45
connection. 64 Devices per RS-485 port

APPLICATION
A capacity based licensing model makes the MATRIX family of
controllers scalable for medium to large buildings applications, HARDWARE PLATFORM
including a campus environment when combined with the ARM Cortex-A8 @ 1 GHz, 512 MB RAM, 4 GB Flash
ASPECT®-Enterprise server software. The MATRIX provides
One 10/100 MB Ethernet RJ-45 Connection
network management and integration of the supported field level
RS-485 and TCP/IP communication protocols. Two RS-485 ports @ 9K6, 19K2, 38K4, 57K6, 76K8 or 115K2

When deployed with embedded ASPECT® Runtime Engine, the EMBEDDED SOFTWARE
MATRIX is capable of supervisory-based control functions Operating System: Secure Linux OS
including but not limited to energy management routines, custom

sequencing, alarm and event annunciation, historical alarming and
trending, and master control scheduling. Additionally, streaming
of live connected data is displayed rich HTML5 graphics using a
web browser.
ASPECT® uses secure web technologies to enrich the user experience DIN-rail mounting
through common internet applications for alarm annunciation and
scheduling. Receive alarms either from the integrated alarm console
or through e-mail clients, or Twitter®. Schedule your building
equipment through an integrated scheduler or by using common
Fan-less design
scheduling platforms such as Microsoft® Outlook®, Apple iCal, Google
Calendar™.
