Motion provides unique market solutions for controls integrators and their customers. By layering motion on top of an existing BAS, contractors can offer customers a simple, effective and elegant controls platform unparalleled to what exists in the industry. As a standalone cloud alternative, buildings with an outdated BAS (or no existing BAS) can install Motion as a simplified monitoring/controls interface that ties all systems together on a single pane of glass.
Disparate hardware? No problem.
With immediate point discovery, build your customers an interactive dashboard within minutes.
Outdated BAS? No BAS? Closed system? Motion gives you an alternative option that wont break the bank like a traditional BAS system.

HVAC systems are a vital part of any commercial or industrial building, and the operators responsible for managing them can often find themselves stretched thin. This is especially true for those who own and operate multiple properties, as keeping track of numerous HVAC assets can quickly become a daunting task.
Fortunately, there is a way to make things easier: integrating your HVAC assets into Motion’s cloud platform. By centralizing your monitoring, control, and alarm functions, you can gain greater visibility into the performance of your HVAC systems and make more informed decisions about their operation.
Proactive maintenance ensures that you get the most out of your HVAC systems. Give HVAC control and data access to only the users who need it. Additionally, in the event of a building emergency, such as a water leak, having all of your HVAC information in one place can be invaluable. With Motion’s emergency push notifications, you can be alerted to potential problems before they become costly catastrophes. So if you’re looking for a better way to manage your HVAC assets, consider putting them on a single pane of glass. It’s your data–make the most of it with Motion.
Controlling and troubleshooting HVAC systems can be a challenge, particularly if they are spread across multiple locations. By digitizing your HVAC assets and putting them on Motion’s easy-to-use platform, you can gain full control over all your HVAC units from a single location. This feature not only makes it easier to keep track of everything, but it also enables you to make changes on the fly as opposed to waiting for someone to physically adjust the settings. In addition, this platform will also show you which units need repairs and who is responsible for maintenance. As a result, this new solution can help improve HVAC performance and tenant compliance by giving you more control over the system. Here are a just a few systems you can control with Motion:
Examples:
- Communicating Thermostat Control
- VAV control and monitoring
- RTU control and monitoring
- Split System/VRF control and monitoring
When it comes to HVAC disasters, the stakes are high. Not only can they lead to costly repairs, but they can also cause serious damage to your building and its occupants. That’s why it’s so important to have a reliable alarm system in place. In the event of an emergency, every second counts. Motion’s platform is designed to get your attention when it matters most. Additionally, Motion can detect systems that are underperforming. We’re always monitoring your buildings, so you can rest assured that someone is always watching out for potential problems. And with our emergency push notifications, you can be alerted to potential problems before they become costly catastrophes. With Motion on your side, you can be confident that your buildings are always operating at peak performance. Here are a few systems Motion can monitor:
Receive instant push notifications for HVAC events by monitoring individual elements within the entire system.
Examples (feel free to add to this list if knowledgable):
- Condenser Water Supply Temp
- Air Temperature
- Supply Air Temperature
- VAV airflow
- VAV supply-air temperature
- Flow Rates
HVAC systems play a vital role in the operations of any modern building. As a result, it is essential that only authorized users have access to HVAC controls and data. Motion allows you to give different users delegated access to exactly what they need. For example, you can give building operators access to controls, while giving building engineers access to data. This ensures that the right people have the information they need, while preventing unauthorized users from damaging or compromising the system. In today’s increasingly connected world, protecting HVAC systems is more important than ever. With Motion, you can give building engineers, building operators, contractors, tenants, maintenance personnel, and more delegated access to exactly what they need. By implementing granular access controls, organizations can help to keep their systems secure and ensure that they continue to operate effectively.

SENSEWARE:
Senseware provides alternative retrofit options for buildings with an outdated Building Automation System (BAS), no existing BAS, or a closed system. Gain visibility to utility systems (electricity, water, gas) that aren’t directly connected to the BAS and see all your data in real-time via the Senseware Dashboard or via API. Senseware acts as a lightweight BAS that ingests real-time utility data from a building, supplements that data with additional retrofit IoT sensors, implements a cloud-based intelligence layer on top of the on-site infrastructure, and can feed back control instructions from the cloud to on-site equipment to optimize building operations. Senseware’s IoT platform provides the foundation for a real-time virtual BAS.
