Alerton Ascent Control Module Global Controller

Ascent Control Module

The Ascent Control Module replaces the current BCM array–and the Alerton Integration Engine (AIE)–by providing a powerful assortment of features, such as multiple global controller instances, and multiple communication networks. The ACM is ideal for retrofit applications, new construction jobs, projects where BACnet is built-in, and installations where integration protocols are used. Simply put, the ACM is one of the most powerful and versatile controllers on the market.

 

Features:

 

  • Offers the power of NiagaraAX® on a native Alerton device to provide twice the programming options to fit virtually any project
  • Quad-core processor for faster computing power, communication, and control
  • Backwards compatibility allows owners to update the look of their building without large capital expenses
  • 6 global controller instances and 6 MS/TP trunks; one device exceeds the functionality of 6 individual devices
  • Thousands of alarms, schedules and trend logs​
  • Option cards offer scalability for additional communication trunks as needed
