CBAS Web

CBAS-Web is building automation via the Internet. This is Computrols' premier web-enabled building automation product. CBAS-Web provides a point monitoring and command interface to any Professional or Enterprise CBAS DPU, as well as providing programming features including schedules and overtime. With CBAS-Web, you possess a professional, clean, and easy to use interface to CBAS.

CBAS-Web goes beyond the monitor and automation tasks of CBAS. You'll find a rich assortment of additional useful features:

• A context-sensitive help resource
• Text and bar graph reports--in-place sortable by any field
• Per-user customizable preferences (color-scheme, default views, point status update rate, and number of points per screen)
• An easily customizable look and feel--the administrator can change logos and even the tagline at the top of the screen
• User-to-user, or user-to-group messaging
• One-click backups
• The ability to program any number of CBAS DPUs into CBAS-Web, allowing a centralized view for points across many job sites or installations
• An automated security sentry that will message the administrator in the event of suspicious behavior. Example: Repeatedly trying to access non-accessible files, or incorrect passwords being entered.

Servers

Any number of servers can be programmed into the CBAS-Web database, allowing a single point for monitoring and automation of many different installations of CBAS.

Accounting Module

CBAS-Web provides a complete invoicing solution for all tenant utilities including executive summaries of tenant statistics (usage, cost, percentage). Figures can also be rendered in color graphs for quick review with the optional CBAS-Web Accounting Module. There's even an optional link for tenants to view invoices online thereby saving time and money on billing tasks.

CBAS-Web users can choose to export data to Microsoft Excel or print invoices for mailing via printer-friendly PDF layouts. To ensure secure record keeping, complete invoicing histories are retained throughout the lifetime of CBAS-Web.

Access Policy

The CBAS-Web database is structured around a number of basic data types that describe who has access to what. Views are a collection of points, and groups are collections of users. CBAS-Web uses this organization to improve simplicity of use and ease of administration.

Because CBAS-Web's access policy is set on the group level instead of the user level, greater efficiency in designing the policy is achieved. If a new point is added to the DPU, it can be added to the appropriate view (or views) where it should appear. Any user that is a member of a group with access to that view will automatically have that point appear under the appropriate view when they log in. Similarly, if it is decided that a group of users should have access removed or added, the whole group is updated at once.

Another feature that makes access policy assignment more fluid is that the administrator can reassign users to different groups at will.
