Leap Metro provides a rich set of tools for registering assets within each building. Items are uniquely identified through user-assigned asset tag numbers. These tag numbers may be generated on bar code labels for subsequent scanning by portable bar code scanners.
Schedule planned maintenance activities for each asset in the building. Each asset can be specified with a pre-defined maintenance profile including details of various periods (daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, etc.), skills and tools required, procedures, checklists and estimated job times.
Coordinate corrective maintenance for faults either reported by building occupants via an online help desk or in response to alarms from subsystems. Configure automated fault response policies for alarm events, generate Work Orders and route them to the appropriate staff or vendors.
Leap Metro provides web based tools for the reservation and usage of common and individual facilities within a building complex. It can be used by building staff as well as occupants to book facilities such as classrooms, sports halls, conference rooms, meeting rooms and IT facilities. Web based tools provide occupants with information about the availability of all facilities and the ability to reserve their usage. Additional services such as after hours air-conditioning and security access can also be requested.
Events tracked within Leap Metro can be configured to trigger email or SMS notifications. Management staff can set reminders for important scheduled tasks and automatically notify field personnel of faults.
Leap Metro contains a full suite of drivers that support standards-based Building Automation protocols including BACNet, Modbus, LonTalk and OPC. Leap Metro also supports an open plugin architecture for proprietary driver development. Leap Metro interfaces with third-party vendor IP ranging from automation protocol mediators to additional building management systems.
All integrated systems are connected through the Leap Metro data processing engine. This engine aggregates data in real time, ready for the application of automation policies or use in any of the overarching reporting or management applications.
Leap Metro utilizes Cloud Computing architecture technologies to scale systems far beyond other products simply by adding additional low cost server hardware.
The HMI (Human Machine Interface) consists of a suite of dashboards that display sub-system information and status as well as providing interfaces to control subsystem functions. Leap Metro provides the ability to develop customized HMIs tailored to the requirements of individual building systems or operator requirements.
Datapoints integrated with Leap Metro can be configured to raise alarms if they move outside the boundaries of its normal operation. Alarms can be configured to trigger automated process work-flows and hierarchical escalation policies.
The Leap Metro Alarm Manager:
Any data-point from any sub-system integrated with Leap Metro can be included in customizable trend reports. The Leap Metro Trend Processor provides a graphical view of process behavior and operational trends over a period of time. It is capable of logging historical data at configurable periods from 500 milliseconds to 24 hours. It provides a flexible interface to display real-time, historical or archived data in a variety of visual formats.
Leap Metro provides a framework for the configuration of customized reports on any aspect of the data that is managed by the system. Trends, alarms and other events can be tracked, based on the performance goals of your organization.
Typical reports track the energy consumption of buildings or building sub-systems, enabling comparisons between equipment and buildings of a similar type to pinpoint areas of poor performance.
Leap Metro contains a powerful workflow engine which acts as the coordinator of activities between the various systems and applications that are integrated into the platform. Tasks can be automated by executing policies that can be triggered by internal or external events.
Intelligent process automation allows integrated building sub-systems and maintenance management applications to collaborate, share data and react to the surrounding environment without human intervention. This ensures systems run at optimal settings and staff are utilized on the most urgent tasks.
