The AS-P server can run multiple control programs, manage local I/O, alarms, and users, handle scheduling and logging, and communicate using a variety of protocols. Because of this, most parts of the system function autonomously and continue to run as a whole even if communication is interrupted or individual EcoStruxure BMS servers or devices go offline.

AS-P 服务器有多个端口，它可以与各种协议、设备和服务器通信。

AS-P 服务器有下列端口：

• 两个 10/100 以太网端口

• 两个 RS-485 端口

• 一个 LonWorks TP/FT 端口（在产品名称中带有“NL”的 AS-P 服务器型号上不可用）

• 一个内置 I/O 总线端口

• 一个 USB 设备端口

• 一个 USB 主机端口

The first Ethernet port is dedicated to the site network. The second Ethernet port is fully configurable. The second port can be configured to extend the site network so that various devices and clients can be connected. Another option is to configure the second port as a separate network, which means that the port can host a private network. This port configuration with dual networks requires hardware version 0.62 or higher. If the second port is not used, it can be disabled.

USB 设备端口允许您使用 Device Administrator 升级 AS-P 服务器并与其交互。

借助 USB 以太网适配器，您可将笔记本电脑连接至 USB 主机端口并运行 Device Administrator、WorkStation 和 WebStation 来对 AS-P 服务器进行升级、配置和访问。USB 主机端口也可用于为 Wireless Adapter - Advanced 提供电源和通信。

For more information on the adapter and supported wireless devices, see the Wireless Adapter - Advanced Specification Sheet.

An EcoStruxure BMS provides a powerful permission system that is easy to manage, flexible, and adapts to all kinds of system sizes. The permission system provides a high standard of authentication. Authentication is done against the built-in user account management system or against Windows Active Directory Domains. The built-in account management system allows an administrator to establish password policies that meet stringent cybersecurity guidelines. When Windows Active Directory is used, the administration costs are lower because users do not have to be managed in multiple directories.

经由任何客户端进入的用户所获得的体验都是相似的，无论用户登录到哪个 EcoStruxure BMS 服务器。用户可以直接登录 AS-P 服务器，以设计、调试、监督和监控 AS-P 服务器及其连接的中央 IO 模块和现场总线设备。更多信息参见 WorkStation 和 WebStation 规格表。

EcoStruxure BMS 的基础之一是支持开放标准。AS-P 服务器原生可与三个最流行的楼宇标准进行通信：BACnet（包括 BACnet/SC）、OPC UA Client、LonWorks 和 Modbus。

AS-P 服务器可与 BACnet/IP 和 BACnet MS/TP 网络直接通信。AS-P 服务器是 BTL 认证的 BACnet 楼宇控制器 (B-BC)，是最为高级的 BACnet 设备设置文件。该功能提供访问施耐德电气和其他供应商提供的各种 BACnet 设备的能力。在 BACnet International 首页查看 BTL 产品目录了解 BTL 清单固件修订版本的最新详情。AS-P 服务器还可充当 BACnet 广播管理设备 (BBMD) 来促进横跨多个 IP 子网的 BACnet 系统。

The Enterprise Server and automation servers support BACnet/SC applications as a BACnet/SC node, hub, and router. This allows the Enterprise Server and automation servers to be in BACnet/SC networks and support applications that connect BACnet/IP or MS/TP networks with BACnet/SC networks. A major benefit of BACnet/SC is that it allows more secure transport of BACnet traffic and information between BACnet/SC devices over private and public networks without the need for BBMDs, VLANs, and VPNs, because the BACnet/SC protocol uses WebSocket technology and TLS 1.3 encryption. In addition, BACnet/SC uses certificate management to help ensure only those devices authorized to be on a BACnet/SC network can operate on that network.

OPC UA Client functionality is natively supported in Enterprise Server and automation servers, enabling powerful and high-capacity integration of devices or systems that have OPC UA Server capability. OPC Unified Architecture (OPC UA) is a standard originating from industrial automation and process control that provides methods intended to provide improved security, performance, and engineering efficiency. With OPC UA Client support, the EcoStruxure Building Operation software can monitor and control a wide variety of devices or systems, from Schneider Electric as well as from other companies.

AS-P 服务器拥有一个内置 FTT-10 端口与 TP/FT-10 LonWorks 网络通信。集成 LonWorks 功能使其能够访问来自施耐德电气和其他供应商的 LonWorks 设备。可利用内置 LonWorks 网络管理工具从 AS-P 服务器对 LonWorks 网络进行调试、绑定和配置。无需第三方工具。具有强大的纠错和网络质量监视功能的协议分析仪可利用第三方软件来实现，无需额外的硬件。为增加易用性，还支持 LNS 设备插件。这样可便于管理和维护来自施耐德电气和其他供应商的 LonWorks 网络。关于如何使用 LNS 设备插件有一些限制。

产品名称中带有“NL”的 AS-P 服务器型号，例如 AS-P-NL 和 AS-P-NLS，不支持 LonWorks。

The Enterprise Server and automation servers natively integrate Modbus RS-485 client and server configurations, as well as Modbus TCP client and server. This allows full access to third-party products and the range of Schneider Electric products that communicate on the Modbus protocol, such as power meters, UPS, circuit breakers, and lighting controllers.

Modbus device types are pre-configured Modbus applications for quick and easy Modbus device integration in EcoStruxure Building Operation solutions. For information on the Modbus devices supported using Modbus device types, see the document EcoStruxure Building - Modbus Device Integration - Supported Device Brochure.

AS-P 服务器还支持与施耐德电气提供的 BMS 系统和设备的集成和通信，这些系统和设备使用 Andover Continuum Infinet 建筑标准。

AS-P 服务器支持基于开放标准（比如 SOAP 和 REST）的 Web 服务的使用，以消耗数据到 EcoStruxure BMS 中。在 Web 上使用输入的第三方数据（温度预测、能源成本）来确定站点模式、日程安排和编程。

EcoStruxure Web Services, Schneider Electric’s Web Services standard, is natively supported in the EcoStruxure BMS servers. EcoStruxure Web Services offers extra features between compliant systems whether within Schneider Electric or other authorized systems. These features include system directory browsing, read/write of current values, alarm receipt and acknowledgement, and historical trend log data. EcoStruxure Web Services requires user name and password to log on to the system.

The Enterprise Server and automation servers support MQTT as an option for publishing data to, and receiving updates from, other systems. MQTT is a messaging transport protocol that with its small footprint, light bandwidth utilization, and simplicity, is ideal for M2M and IoT communication. The MQTT capability supports communication with any MQTT broker, for example, Amazon, Microsoft, Google or IBM.

EcoStruxure BMS servers can be configured to automatically store all historical data, trend log data, event log and audit trail data, in an external database. If data needs to be available for longer periods of time, an external log storage can be incorporated into the EcoStruxure BMS without the need for extensive engineering work. The supported databases are TimescaleDB, which is built on PostgreSQL, and Microsoft SQL Server. The data in the external log storage is available natively to the viewers built into the EcoStruxure Building Operation clients and to the built-in reporting functionality.

You can use the powerful Log Processor functionality for custom processing of trend data for viewing in charts, dashboards and for inclusion in reports. The Log Processor enables advanced calculations on one or multiple trend logs and point values.

Examples of advanced calculations:

• Energy usage normalization

• Virtual submeters and summaries

• Calculation of Mean Kinetic Temperature

• Unit conversions

• Average, maximum, and mini m um over custom periods

The output of the Log Processor can be saved in the database, including the External Log Storage or calculated automatically on demand.

From EcoStruxure Building Operation version 5.0.3 and later, selected trend logs and the event log can be sent to AVEVA PI System directly without the need for intermediate storage or specialized PI System connectors.

The EcoStruxure BMS servers provide built-in functionality for basic reporting that can deliver reports in any text format and XLSX, without any dependencies to other external software. Reports for XLSX can be enriched by using advanced functionality such as formulas, conditional formatting, charts and sparklines.

Reports can be generated on schedule, on an alarm event or other custom conditions, and you can get the output delivered via email or written to file.

AS-P 服务器及其中央 IO 模块系列的设计旨在满足每种安装的独特需求。根据配置的不同，每台 AS-P 服务器可控制多达 464 个 I/O 点。由于功率和通信沿用公用总线交付，无需工具即可利用内置连接器以简单的一步式流程将多个模块插在一起。

For applications that require remote I/O resources, the SpaceLogic IP-IO modules provide a versatile mix of I/O points for any application. For more information, see the SpaceLogic IP-IO Specification Sheet.

Unique to the industry, the EcoStruxure BMS servers have both Script and Function Block programming options. This flexibility helps assure that a suitable programming method can be selected for the application.

The automation server has a 4 GB eMMC memory, which is used, for example, for the application, historical data, and backup storage. Users can also manually back up or restore the automation server to a storage location on a PC or network. Through the Enterprise Server, users have the ability to perform scheduled backups of associated automation servers to network storage for even greater levels of protection.

The EcoStruxure BMS servers communicate using the networking standards. This makes installations easy, management simple, and transactions more secure.

• IP 寻址

• SNMP，用于网络监测和指定网络管理工具中的应用程序报警接收

• WebSocket Secure (WSS) 和 TLS 1.3 加密（BACnet/SC 应用程序）

Communication between clients and the EcoStruxure BMS servers , and between EcoStruxure BMS servers, can be encrypted using Transport Layer Security (TLS ). The servers are delivered with a default self-signed certificate. Commercial Certification Authority (CA) server certificates are supported to lower the risk of malicious information technology attacks. Use of encrypted communication can be enforced for both WorkStation and WebStation access.

Each module can be separated from its terminal base to allow the site to be wired prior to the installation of the electronics. The patented locking mechanism serves as handles for removing the module from its base. All critical components have a protective cover that permits convection cooling to occur.
