WebStation
EcoStruxure Building Operation

Introduction
EcoStruxure Building Operation WebStation is a web-
based user interface for day-to-day operation in an
EcoStruxure BMS. WebStation comes built in with every
EcoStruxure BMS server, and provides easy access to
the software from anywhere in the world.

Features
WebStation provides a rich, responsive user interface
to access the EcoStruxure BMS servers using common
web browsers on Windows PCs, Mac OS computers,
Android and iOS tablets and smartphones. Users can
view and manage graphics, alarms, schedules, trend
logs, reports, and user accounts. Secure user accounts
An EcoStruxure BMS requires each user to have an
Dashboards account. Access can be through an account
maintained by the EcoStruxure Building Operation
database or through a Windows Active Directory
account. IT policies for password formatting, aging,
and uniqueness are supported and enforced.

Language and regional settings

The software adapts the displayed language,
measurement system, and date/time format to the
operating system settings. Language and
measurement system can easily be switched from
within WebStation. Translations of WebStation are
delivered as separate language packs that are easy to
install and deploy. More than 40 preset data and time
formats are supported.

Efficient alarm management Scalable vector graphics

The EcoStruxure Building Operation software uses
scalable vector graphic technology so that users can
zoom in to see details without losing clarity. Graphics
are built once, but can be used on any display
regardless of size or resolution. Vector graphic file
sizes are small so they can be stored and served
directly from the SmartX server.

Super dynamic live updates

A standard live update simply shows the displayed
values as conditions change in the field. With the
EcoStruxure Building Operation software's super
dynamic live updates, all aspects of graphical elements
can change when values change.
