About this file

This document is a detailed set of technical requirements for Energy Management Control System (EMCS) and Direct Digital Control (DDC) system installations at Eglin Air Force Base, Florida. The documents provide comprehensive specifications for new facility implementations and existing facility remodels, covering network infrastructure, graphic interface standards, and controller configurations. Key requirements include using Niagara 4.0 version framework, BACnet IP protocol, specific graphic design standards with 3D floor plans and interactive equipment graphics, and precise network installation guidelines such as dedicated fiber strands, Cisco 8-port switches, and lockable network enclosures. The preferred DDC manufacturers are Trane, Johnson, Automated Logic, Siemens, and Schneider, with strict protocols for software compatibility, password access, and system integration.

The technical specifications outline detailed requirements for building-level supervisory controllers, including point-to-point connectivity, web server capabilities, and embedded workbench toolsets. Contractors must provide all administrator-level passwords, install controllers in mechanical rooms, and ensure complete system accessibility for Civil Engineer technicians. Network requirements mandate specific installation practices like using purple Cat 5E cables, installing 2" EMT conduits, and setting up single port LAN connections in network enclosures. The documents emphasize comprehensive system documentation, including as-built wiring diagrams, equipment manufacturer details, and warranty information, with all graphics and system data to be duplicated in the Enterprise Network Server located in building 696 at Eglin Air Force Base.

Requirements for New Facilities

1. Provide building level supervisory controllers based on Eglin’s existing Niagara 4.0 version matching the current Niagara framework of our DDC Enterprise Network Server (ENS). The building level supervisory controllers shall include point-2-point (P2P), Secure Socket Layer SSL, Web server and embedded Workbench (WB). All control devices shall be programmable directly from The Niagara 4 Workbench embedded toolset. The use of configurable or programmable controllers that require additional software tools or tools that require a specific Niagara 4 license brand to operate for post-installation maintenance shall not be acceptable. The building level supervisory controllers shall contain all building logic, graphics and local controller backups. JACE’s shall be installed in the mechanical room.

2. All graphics and points shall be duplicated in the existing Niagara 4.0 version 4.13 Framework ENS (Enterprise Network Server) using existing workbench software located in building 696, which shall serve as the Web Server for the system. All trended points shall be transferred via P2P to the server for history trending of points.

3. Provide Niagara Workbench software matching the current version of the DDC (ENS) server Niagara Framework software. All Software to be installed by the contractor on a government laptop or desktop provided by the 796th. Provide software and USB adapters for each type of DDC field controllers, to include factory installed DDC controllers. This laptop will be used/verified during the training. Laptop will need to be submitted to 96 CEG IT to facilitate required device security scans and uploading of Air Force Network (AFNET) standard desktop configuration (SDC) PRIOR to the contractor uploading any specialty (DDC) software.

A minimum of 7 days should be allotted to accomplish this. Once complete, the device will be returned to the contractor for DDC software installation and perform training.

4. The system shall allow Civil Engineer (CE) technicians to connect to all controllers with all available software in all modes available by the manufacturer from building 696 via the local area network (LAN) to program, backup, download, configure and perform all functions necessary to maintain the system as if onsite and direct connected to the device.

5. All hardware and software administrator level passwords shall be provided to the government to access all levels of all controllers including the new Niagara Framework controllers as well as copies of the system’s topology, hardware/software inventory, and configuration. The password shall allow complete access to everything the manufacturer has access to. Leave the default factory Platform Username and Password.

6. All field controllers shall use Building Automation and Control network (BACnet) IP protocol.

Install Field Controller backup software in the JACE.

7. Provide a LAN drop within three feet of each building level supervisory controller and provide a patch cable between the LAN drop and the building level supervisory controller.

8. When the BACnet communication buss leaves and enters a building, use fiber optic cable and provide media converter pairs (i.e. between buildings or out to chillers) and provide DB testing results.

9. The BACnet communication buss shall be daisy chained to the JACE. No additional switches or routers shall be used.

Requirements for Existing Facility Remodels

1. Modifications to an existing facility’s Control System (CS) must be compatible with the current CS in that facility if the new controls are connecting to existing JACE.

Whenever possible, the same brand controls should be used. If a new JACE is to be installed, the requirements for New Facilities will apply.

2. All graphics (including floor plans) must be updated in the existing ENS (Enterprise Network Server) located in building 696 which shall serve as the Web Server for the system, as well as in the JACE.

3. The system shall allow Civil Engineer (CE) technicians to connect to all controllers with all available software in all modes available by the manufacturer from building 696 via the local area network (LAN) to program, backup, download, configure and perform all functions necessary to maintain the system as if onsite and direct connected to the device.

4. Provide all Controls software necessary for project; to be loaded onto an AF provided Laptop with current SDC. Provide latest software and USB adapters for each type of DDC field controllers, to include factory installed DDC controllers. (This laptop will be used/verified during the training).

5. All hardware and software administrator level passwords shall be provided to the government to access all levels of all controllers including the new Niagara Framework controllers as well as copies of the system’s topology, hardware/software inventory, and configuration. The password shall allow complete access to everything the manufacturer has access to.
