PCT TEST METHODOLOGY FOR PLANT SUPERVISORY CONTROLLERS FOR BUILDING AUTOMATION Kumar Abhishek (Senior Engineer) Honeywell Technology Solution Lab Pvt Ltd

Abstract Performance testing is a major and important Process Control Technology (PCT) for producing a quality product that can sustain a business in the marketplace. This paper introduces best practices to use when performance testing third-party LonWorks and BACnet controllers to verify their compatibility with BMS (Building Management System) SCADA (Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition) software. Analysing the behavioural changes embedded supervisory controllers experience as various devices and points are added can help users understand the types of devices that are best supported by BMS SCADA software. The performance test also defines the memory configuration parameters required to analyse memory consumption levels in embedded supervisory controllers. This study used a BACnet network and supported devices for developing the test methodology.
