September 14, 2011 — Trend Control Systems anounces the TL1 network device that utilizes Niagara AX software to allow a Novar Logic One system to interface, communicate and integrate with a Trend system. The TL1 replaces the Logic One executives located within a building. This functionality allows for communication and data to flow between Logic One devices and a Trend system, providing a supervisor to control the Logic One controllers. Novar Logic One executive controllers are discontinued in the commercial market. As a result, building owners with existing Logic One systems were left with a situation wherein they were unable to update and maintain their existing building management systems (BMS), and were forced to invest in an entirely new BMS.
The introduction of the TL1 changes this. The TL1 can replace existing Logic One executives throughout a building thereby extending the life of the Logic One system, and allowing a smooth migration path to a new and updated Trend system.
