Do regular grocery stores use a similar system? Or are locally controlled, simpler systems?

- picofarad 16d agoI've noticed stores going to central coolant lines going to cold cases more and more lately. Its all still industrial control. Ideally.
- quickthrowman 15d agoYou can stick with local control and no internet access, all of the major BAS integrators offer completely offline systems. A BAS system is pretty simple, there are microcontrollers with binary and analog inputs and outputs that get networked together (RS-485, Ethernet, ARCnet), sensors and relays get wired to the microcontrollers. The microcontroller network is usually connected to a control panel that orchestrates the controllers, this is what you can connect to via the internet or a local pc not attached to the internet. But pretty much any grocery store with multiple refrigerated/freezer cases is going to have an automation system that runs it.
