Trang 4Conventional electrical installations in large utility buildings are often complex, confusing and full of limitations Adding
to the headache is the amount of retrofitting works required
by new tenants who often call for major rewiring works to suit their individual requirements
But the ever-ready Siemensinstabus system is able to link all those confusing independent lines together to give you methodical control This advance system will also grow with the building, so modification is easy without having to knock down walls Thus a substantial amount of savings is achieved
in retrofitting works
You will enjoy the combination of:
1 Central control, to optimize the operations of the building
by effortless automation and monitoring functions
2 Decentralized control, because you would not be stuck with the automated function as local overwriting is possible wherever and whenever is neccessary
What isinstabus?
instabus is a system which integrates the different aspects
of building devices: it integrates control and monitoring for lighting, temperature, curtains/shutters, home appliances, security via a single common cable This single cable runs from control devices to control devices and is powered by Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV)
This chapter is an introduction to the Siemens instabus system, and numerous ways it aids in providing
c o n v e n i e n c e a n d s a v i n g s i n commercial buildings as compared
to the conventional wiring system.
Conventional systems are limiting and complex

Offices - Meeting/Board Room
In the corporate world of high-powered
n e g o t i a t i o n s a n d m u l t i - m i l l i o n d o l l a r
presentations, a well-coordinated and sleek
presentation will impress your audience
Just one touch on the Infrared Handheld
Remote Control (page 3-35), you can switch
seamlessly between different medium and
without awkward interludes These scenes may
be activated by any user, any occupant, using
the IR Handheld Remote The pre-setting of the
scenes are selected and programmed by the
owner with the Push Buttons or Handheld
Remote Control There is no need of extra
software or phone calls to the contractor to
change the scenes to the owner’s liking
Scene Control (page 3-33)
1 Presenter ready for opening speech
2 Presenter proceeds to multi-media presentation
3 Presenter starts discussion with customers
4 Presenter’s work meeting with colleagues
after customers are gone
Once the presentation is over, simply pull back
those room partitions and you will have your
individual meeting room back in the original
configuration The built-in Room Contact will
detect the retracted partition, allowing each
task group to control lights in their section from
push buttons positioned next to the entrance
Room Partitioning (page 3-42)
1 Two separate rooms individually controlled
by push buttons and wireless remote
transmitters are connected with a door
2 Start retracting partitions so as to merge two
rooms into one
3 Now the board room is almost ready for use
4 The two individually controlled parts
automatically merge to one large room with
common control for individual lights, scene
presetting and even wireless remote control
Trang 6Offices - Working Area
Occasions do arise when the general work area requires major re-layout work This means dealing with another round of dusty wall-hacking and huge tangles of cables and wires, if it is on conventional wiring system But with Siemens instabus, you simply need to add on the new fittings and reprogram the system in a cost-effective and hassle-free manner
Office facilities will stay in operating mode through the night if they are not switched off
at the end of the work day So it makes perfect sense to program the system to supply power
to copier machines and printers only during office hours This will achieve tremendous
energy savings Timed Switching (page 2-17)
Alternatively, a time margin may be given such that lights and devices are switched on one hour before and after office hours
Large utility buildings consume huge amount
of energy power because all lights in the working area are switched on fully throughout the day But substantial energy savings can be observed
with the bus technology, as the Daylight Control (page 3-37) will integrate the daylight
and artificial light in a single system
So depending on the exterior weather, the artificial lights nearest to the windows will automatically dim to supply sufficient lighting
to workers

Trang 7Retail Area - Selling Floor
Constituting the largest area space and housing
all display items in a retail outlet, the variable
cost for electricity is by far one of the most
substantial In addition to that problem is the
non-flexibility of control for the various light
groups But with the ever-ready Siemens
instabus , lights that are not used for the displays
may be dimmed down or switched off
The new light setting may be achieved without
any complication of rewiring to accommodate
the new theme of display of items Simply
adjust the lights to the brightness level preferred
(on, off or dim), save the settings into memory
and recall the setting whenever you need it
Scene Control (page 3-33)
General Area - Entrance Hall
This is the first area visitors will step into in any
building Impressions are formed immediately
as a result of the unusual building materials and
light scenes being achieved The receptionist
is able to recall different preset light groups at
the touch of a fingertip With an elegant looking
interior, unsightly combinations of conventional
switches and dimmers are replaced by designer
Siemens’ switches Scene Control (page 3-33)
General Area - Lift & Staircase Landing
Lights in this area are often left running
throughout the entire day But, there will be no
more unnecessary wastage in terms of energy
and cost with Siemensinstabus You now have
the choice of ensuring that lights are dimmed
or turned off completely at a preset time after
the end of the work day Timer (page 3-40)
The system is also able to detect unauthorized
presence and have strategic lights turned on
Hence security is enhanced due to better
visibility Motion Detector (page 3-39)

General Area - Restrooms
This is one of the most integral and frequented parts of the building Yet you are still able to observe considerable energy savings by having the lights dimmed down in the absence of people
Or you can program the lights to switch off totally at a preset time after the end of the work
day Timer (page 3-40)
A simple button installed in the restroom can also be used to notify the central control desk when an elderly or handicapped person requires
help in the restroom Panic Button (page 3-43)
General Area - Multi-Storey Car Parks
With the intelligent bus system, you are not only able to enjoy extra savings but also improve the safety of the overall work environment by ensuring that car park lights are immediately and automatically lighted in the presence of people
Trang 9Nowadays, new or retrofitted historical residential buildings would not only be built with state-of-the-art fittings and finishes, but futuristic domestic technology as well
Very often all these futuristic domestic technology would also mean major damages to the civil structural part of the buildings But with the proven bus technology, all these unnecessary major surgery works can be greatly reduced
Residential Intelligence: Security
Enjoy a total peace of mind when the entire family is abroad for holiday In the morning, have the motorized curtains drawn open and the radio or TV switched on And in the evening, the motorized curtains will automatically be drawn, thus creating the false impression that somebody is in the house

Trang 10Residential Intelligence:
Security (Cont’d)
Installed with the bus technology, the house would have the ability to protect itself at all times,
as intruder presence can be detected within close range of the house The hidden intruder can be scared off on the spot with some of these trigger effects: the entire house lights would be switched on automatically, the siren alarm would
be activated and finally the house owner would receive a warning call from the system
Safety & Security (page 3-43)
Living Area - Living Room
Pamper the family by incorporating the control for lights, motorized curtains, security and home entertainment system to one single, versatile system Enjoy the convenience to operate all functions from a handheld remote transmitter wherever you are
The flexibility afforded by Siemens instabus system provides immeasurable benefits of convenience and peace of mind for a happy and growing family
You can ensure that the lights are switched on, the air-con unit is switched on, and the hi-fi system working even before you are home - all with the press of a button from your mobile phone You also have the choice of a voice control function that puts you in the forefront of technology This is especially beneficial to a handicapped member of the family
How about having the house remember each family member’s preferences? Well, when a family member reaches home and slots in his personalized card access, the security system will recognize who has just arrived home It then immediately recall the specific preset setting for this person, just the way he prefers
Scene Control (page 3-33)
Living Area - Bedroom
People spend most of their time at home in the bedroom more than anywhere else So it makes absolute sense to link the most crucial controls here Save yourself that extra trip round the house by turning off all lights and electrical appliances from the bedroom just before sleeping For those with elderly family members living in the house, you want the assurance that they can get immediate help during emergency instances While you are away at work in the day, your elderly family members can call upon the security guards whenever there is an accident in the
