ADD-SCH-EXCH
Carrier® i‑Vu® add‑ons expand the capability of the i‑Vu building automation system. The Microsoft® Exchange Scheduling add‑on connects Outlook® room reservations to i‑Vu using Exchange Web Services, automatically writing reservations into the system. These schedules drive heating, cooling, and lighting based on room use, improving comfort and supporting energy savings.
The Microsoft Exchange Scheduling add‑on connects Outlook room reservations to the i‑Vu building automation system using Exchange Web Services. As rooms are booked in Outlook, their schedules are written into i‑Vu, allowing HVAC and lighting to operate automatically based on planned occupancy. This integration streamlines event coordination and supports comfort and energy efficiency.
Features
