Building
System automation, room automation, monitoring, alarming
Secure remote access to heating and solar systems is child’s play with Aartesys systems. All you need is a computer with Internet access.
The same applies to the remote programming of building control systems, for example for lift control and communication or when using KNX objects.
Remote programming and automatic updating of locking systems are also among the preferred applications for Aartesys solutions.
Challenges
- A wide variety of system landscapes from various manufacturers
- Different life cycles of the systems
- Partial lack of system know-how
- Too much on-site support for the systems and too many individual alarms
Solutions
- EasyGateway® as an infrastructure gateway (IGW)
- Sensors for detecting leaks, temperature measurements, vibrations and changes in position
- Room monitoring
- Metering as the basis for energy efficiency
Customer benefits
- IGW system as middleware for the different system landscapes
- IGW as an interface to the control center systems
- Unique collective alarms
- Reduction of on-site support costs thanks to secure remote access to existing control systems
- Predictive maintenance and thus reduction of malfunctions and failures
- Security

Industrial IoT platform Amira
The AMIRA management system is a highly scalable and modularly expandable IIoT platform for device management, monitoring and fault detection, remote access for troubleshooting, as well as reporting and alerting.
AMIRA forms the central infrastructure for capturing and managing data streams from and to communication gateways, edge devices and sensors. AMIRA assumes the role of a data hub for secure and controllable communication with ERPs, production systems, big data servers or support systems.
The AMIRA management system is based on the latest IP-based protocols and enables worldwide, secure communication with the managed devices.
- The fully IP-based device communication supports any wired IP communication as well as the growing range of mobile communication standards and mobile IoT communication offerings.
- The system functions are designed for high operational reliability, especially when communicating via mobile networks, and no special requirements such as fixed IP etc. are necessary.
- The software architecture is designed for maximum scalability.
- Open, modern northbound interfaces ensure seamless integration into peripheral systems and secure interoperability.
- The highest level of attention is paid to data security in terms of architecture, and communication security is guaranteed by sophisticated and verified encryption procedures.

LOCIO
Low-power controller LOCIO
The low-power controllers “LOCIO” from Aartesys are extremely energy-efficient devices, ideally suited for IIoT tasks and for performing acquisition and control tasks in distributed systems, both for fixed and mobile installations.
The LOCIO devices are remotely configurable and controllable and are characterized by extremely simple commissioning. The devices can be securely loaded with new operating software at any time during operation via the air interface.
An integrated LTE-M /NB-IoT module is available as a communication interface for communication via public mobile networks. The position can also be evaluated via an integrated GPS module.
As with the well-known EasyGateway® family, the LOCIO devices also focus on secure communication and flexible extensions and options. Encrypted connections and secure storage of certificates are part of the basic equipment.
The extremely energy-saving design of the device, including the mobile radio interface, enables economical operation. In addition to meeting sustainability targets, this low power approach also enables operation from a primary battery or via energy harvesting.
LOCIO Basic
The “LOCIO Basic” device consists of the basic board with a wide-range power supply, series interface, analog and digital inputs, as well as a power output in a compact 18mm DIN rail housing.
Software module: Mini PLC
- Virtualized mini PLC programming interface
- Completely web based
- Central data storage on AMIRA server
- Online testing in real time
- Integrated programming of the WebIF interface
Sensors
Sensors are almost always involved in customer projects.
Be it sensors for detecting changes in position or sensors for measuring temperature, humidity and pressure.
Aartesys integrates existing sensor products based on all common protocols, such as MQTT, into customer solutions or, where this standard portfolio is not sufficient, Aartesys develops sensors itself – such as, for example
the AarteLink® GeoSensor for natural hazard alarms or high-precision temperature sensors with LoRa® wireless technology for a wide range of applications such as refrigeration unit monitoring for retailers, medical technology or the catering industry.
