Event, supported by BACnet International, included training, forums and an interoperability event<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n BACnet Golden Week followed a similar format to previous events and included a technology educational forum, BACnet training and a BACnet Plugfest interoperability event. Organizations represented included Siemens, Delta Controls, PcVue, Alibaba, Zhijiang College \u2013 Zhejiang University of Technology, Yikong, Fudan University, Schneider Electric, Smart IO, Johnson Controls, and many other industry leading organizations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The educational forum was held on the first day of the event and showcased the latest updates to BACnet technology and advanced applications. Highlights include the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Following the educational forum, BACnet technology training was conducted by Bernhard Isler, who provided participants with a deeper understanding of the future of the BACnet protocol. The training session also gave participants the opportunity to share and discuss their progress, wins and challenges faced implementing BACnet in their products. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Training was followed by a BACnet Plugfest event, under the guidance of Mr. Isler, which provided an opportunity for companies to perform interoperability testing for their BACnet-enabled solutions in a vendor neutral environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWe are very happy to support and participate in BIG-CA\u2019s BACnet Golden Week,\u201d said Andy McMillan. \u201cThe BIG-CA staff and its volunteers hosted an informational and educational event that brought together members of the interest group as well as government officials and others interested in the further adoption of BACnet. It is a great opportunity to showcase the benefits of the BACnet protocol to the building automation market and celebrate its success.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n About BACnet International<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n BACnet International is an industry association that facilitates the successful use of the BACnet protocol in building automation and control systems through interoperability testing, educational programs and promotional activities.
