Technology

Save up to 30% of annual guest room HVAC and  lighting energy use in guest rooms with EUROICC’s Smart Hotel Control installed.

Energy consumption (HVAC and lighting) is one of the largest operating costs in hotels. Guests are away from their rooms more than 50% of the time, frequently leaving utilities running in their absence.

Thanks to its smart management of rooms energy systems, our solution brings major savings and therefore improves a hotel’s bottom line. It is also in compliance with global green building trends.

Our solution brings high level of comfort for guests enabling them to easily communicate with hotel staff to create a room environment according to their own needs.

Choose Your Perfect Setting

Our system can be configured and programmed based on your needs. Whether it’s a small room or a double room or apartment, we can find the best solution for maximum comfort and saving. You can choose an option with card holder or PIR sensor, different controllers based on number of elements, different setting of room controllers, and even design of the room panels.

Here are some of the examples of room topology, for a smaller and larger rooms and option with PIR sensor for movement detection. Also presented are options with standard and glass room units. However, we offer much more, and our team is here to offer the best solution for any particular case.

System Overview

C series microcontrollers

Hotel room smart management system based on C series of microcontrollers is a flexible solution applicable for different size hotels – from small inns to luxurious hotels.

Alarms

Main functionalities are access control, power saving, staff monitoring and more effective processing of different alarms.

RFID cards

Access control is implemented by RFID cards with security codes that guarantee safety in building. Security level is increased by alarm signals (SOS, flood, burglary) instantly sent to the monitoring computer.

Communication infrastructure

  • Room controllers are connected per floors or sections by BACnet MS/TP IP connection RS485 with BACnet router C4.WBR.02
  • One MS/TP line can connect for example up to 254 C2.FNC.34 functional controllers. Length of the communication line is maximum 1000 m.
  • BACnet router is connected to the monitoring server by ethernet connection on BACnet/IP protocol
  • Our system communicates with PMS and BMS and any other external system such as fire protection system
  • Central server (SHC-R) has SCADA functionality and can be extended with various data link and visualization modules
  • SHC-R acts as a communication bridge with Fidelio

Software overview

  • Our system uses standard BACnet and Modbus protocols
  • Modular – supports different data sources and data visualization modes
  • Micros Fidelio is one of the most widely used hotel property management systems
  • Smart Hotel Control integrates through FIAS into hotel systems that use Micros Fidelio
  • Micros Fidelio covers reservations, guests, rooms, keys, state of equipment in rooms, hotel staff, paid contents (swimming pools, saunas, parking, etc.)

Elements

Web BACnet Router

Web BACnet router represents a connection between rooms and hotel monitoring system, using a BACnet protocol to connect to controllers and TCP/IP to further connect to the network.

Functional Controller

Master Controller can be chosen from a variety of our controllers depending on requirements. The user may mix and match various IO resources (binary or universal inputs, binary or analog outputs and communication protocols (Modbus and BACnet MSTP).

Programmable Room Touch Panels

Glass Room Units

Room units are defined based on needs, design, technical solution, etc. They are luxurious glass touch panels. Depending on the room configuration, they can include a card holder, corridor panel, thermostat units, bedside panels, and much more. There is also a wide selection of colors and pictogram designs to choose from. Room units are connected to a controller via Modbus protocol.

Smart Hotel Control - Communication

Room controls

Build with intention to enable interior designers to achieve outstanding design results, this series of PLCs stands out by its unique glass based user interface. The glass colour and patterns are fully customizable allowing for plethora of options for designers to work with. With numerous options and built in modularity it is a genuine refreshment on the market enabling new possibilities.

Remote Display Unit

This series of products has been originally intended for applications in hotel systems of different complexities. However, it has been shown that it can be deployed with the same ease within business, office or residential spaces and areas.

IO Expanders

Responsibility for a broad choice of interfaces and types of inputs and outputs lays with these modules. They empower the easy functional transformation of all the units from the series. In the same time they facilitate various types of inputs and outputs to be present while enabling connectivity protocols and interfaces.

Intelligent User Interfaces

The series brings to life a concept of modularity which allows it to achieve easy functional transformations and enable a multitude of IO and communication options. Combining frontal glass panel with variable add-ons, provides the possibility of a great number of different devices.
