BACnet PICS for P-CCS
Protocol Implementation Conformance Statement (PICS)
Vendor Name: Electronic Theatre Controls, Inc. (ETC) – BACnet Vendor ID # 433
Product Name: Unison Paradigm Central Control Server
Product Model Number: P-CCS
Application Software Version: v6.0.0 or newer
1. Product Description
The P‑CCS BACnet Interface allows a BACnet Client to interface with and control a Unison Paradigm lighting system. BACnet IP Clients physically connect via the Secondary Network Interface of the P‑CCS, positioning the server as a gateway between the Unison system and BACnet client applications. It exposes a series of BACnet objects that reflect the state/condition of Paradigm lighting devices and permits control.
