.jpg) February 1, 2011 – QA Graphics released version 3.1 of their 3D symbol library for building automation system (BAS) software. Version 3.1 is an updated release of the original graphics library. It allows users to maintain their existing software while accessing high-end graphics to provide their customers with a nicer looking user interface. Over 45 new symbols are available with version 3.1, and several new categories have been added to offer graphics for fire systems, lighting systems, lab systems and security systems. New symbols include heat pumps, sensors, roof elements for roof top units, compressors, boilers for popular HVAC equipment providers including Cleaver-Brooks, Murray and Buderus, and a variety of other symbols needed to create control system graphics. With the release of v3.1, this graphics library for BAS Software now provides over 310 static graphics and more than 95 animated graphics to construct BAS graphics and HVAC graphics. Key symbols include boilers, chillers, dampers, filters, piping, fans, cooling towers, generators, valves, ductwork, coils and more. This allows users to create more than 95% of all mechanical systems. The BAS Symbol Library is compatible with the following systems: The library is provided for unlimited use by one physical company location, and may be used by additional locations for a one-time licensing fee. To provide users with graphics that are secure and unique to their business, major equipment components will be watermarked with a 3-letter acronym (watermark can be visible or undetectable). For Tridium NiagaraAX users, QA Graphics has developed a BAS Image Module so the library can be licensed on a per project basis. Use of the secure graphics can be affordably licensed for Niagara AX JACE and Supervisor devices. To meet customer needs, the library is offered at two levels: Commercial, which offers an extensive variety of graphic options, and Lite Commercial, which offers a condensed symbol set. For those already using QA Graphics’ BAS Symbol Library, customers can upgrade to v3.1 for a one-time fee and access all of the updates. |
