Desigo CC V5.0
Enhanced building management
Desigo CC V5.0 is now linked to the infrastructure around the building. For the first time, it offers the ability to monitor the energy consumption of electric vehicles, thanks to EV charging station integration via the OCPP protocol. In a user-friendly manner, Desigo CC represents the status information of the e-charging stations and provides dedicated graphic symbols for an easy visualization. Additionally, Desigo CC extends its cloud connectivity with direct access from the Siemens cloud application Building Operator through a secure internet tunnel to start the local Desigo CC Flex Client for advanced operation. With this easy cloud connection, operators can access their Desigo CC without the need for a VPN connection, anytime and from anywhere, allowing them to reduce their on-site presence.
User experience as key element
Flex Client is the new HTML5 front-end of Desigo CC that can run on any operating system and web browser supporting HTML5 technology, and also mobile devices such as tablets – all without requiring installation steps. Flex Client has been designed to drastically improve the user experience and to make the monitoring of any building an easy task. With V5.0, Flex Client has been improved and now provides easier event handling, a sophisticated trending application and easy access to building schedules.
Desigo CC V5.0
Security in mind
To protect vulnerable building data even better, Desigo CC V5.0 is now IEC62443-3-3 SL2 compliant. Extensions and subsystem integrations have been extensively evaluated and tested to be listed as SL2 compliant, allowing Desigo CC to be used in deployments with higher security demands. With V5.0, new multifactor authentication and improved sign-on were implemented to simplify multi-user operation. Desigo CC is constantly tested and protected with frequent releases of patches, hot fixes and updates. Customers can benefit from this continuous updating process by subscribing to the Desigo CC Software Upgrade Program to receive the latest packages as they come.
Improved operational efficiency
Since the amount of KNX devices in buildings is increasing, Desigo CC supports them too. V5.0 allows the integration of additional KNX devices such as Tunable White DALI gateways. With ready-to-use graphic symbols, it now enables tuning of the white temperature color of the lights connected to the DALI gateway. Furthermore, Desigo CC V5.0 simplifies the integration of more features and devices. Its new Engineering Console makes it easy for service providers and engineers to initiate configuration tasks while automatizing repetitive elements.
With these new functionalities and enhancements, Desigo CC V5.0 is taking the next step to boost the digitalization of buildings and to contribute to making infrastructure smarter. It helps make buildings such as hospitals, commercial buildings, data centers, offices, hotels or airports future-proof and easy to manage.
