J2 Innovations has partnered with Italian controls specialist, Coster Group to embed FIN Framework (FIN) into a new generation of plant and building control solutions. Coster Group’s “WebGarage” is the first system by the Italian manufacturer to use FIN open framework – an easy-to-configure and use software platform for building automation and IoT applications – which is now embedded into its web-enabled YHC700 IP controller platform.
The Coster Group YHC 700/YLC880 and YHC CWE/YLC880 IP controller platform provides automation, management and supervision of medium-sized control systems for HVAC, water and lighting with support for Modbus RS485 communications to connect meters and other I/O modules [ESP 442, ESU 402 and the next generation of extension modules]. An optional 3/4G modem module provides remote access to monitor plant status and alarm configurations.
In the near future, FIN's Edge2Cloud remote connectivity technology will connect with thousands of sites and link these back to WebGarage.
Why was FIN Framework chosen?
Coster Group required a framework that was open, scalable, and enabled rapid development. Additionally, the company sought a solution with global availability to support its international network of partners. Following a thorough evaluation of market offerings, internal assessments, and expert consultations, the FIN Framework quickly stood out as the optimal choice.
It aligned seamlessly with Coster Group’s commitment to simplicity in installation and configuration, while also incorporating cutting-edge technologies such as Haystack 4.0 and IoT integration
