Autani · Controller & Gateways
Central energy management controller for lighting, HVAC and metering – multi-protocol (Bluetooth, Zigbee, EnOcean, BACnet/IP).
The Autani Manager is a compact, industrial-grade hardware controller and the heart of the Keilton+autani energy management system. Powered by the award-winning EnergyCenter® software, it integrates building operations through a multi-protocol approach – Bluetooth®, Zigbee (autaniNet), EnOcean and BACnet/IP.
As the central intelligence, it processes data from sensors, controls and meters in real time and controls lighting, HVAC and sockets (EU version in preparation) based on sensor events, schedules, load-shedding strategies and triggers. The web interface lets you manage schedules, load management and settings graphically on floor plans. Access is via Ethernet (LAN) or 4G router – remotely, too. Combined with the RTR.A0 and CR05.A0, it integrates the entire Keilton+autani portfolio.
