Vesta Technologies, Inc., a Trend Technology Center, partners with Trend to provide our customers with the very best in Building Automation Controls and Energy Management products. Trend offers some of the most robust Ethernet-based technology on the planet. Utilizing a true Peer-to-Peer (PTP) topology, Trend has paved the way to a new era in DDC controls. Most systems utilize a “Head-end” style of architecture, which leaves the system susceptible to a host of issues. With Trend, every device has its own scheduling and communication capabilities, and is not dependent on any one device. The Ethernet-based controllers also employ numerous features that customers love. A built-in Web-server enables you to use nothing more complex than Internet Explorer to interrogate the controllers. The components’ flexible design allows you to add onto existing controllers as your need to expand the system arises. Trend also uses open protocol communications, effortlessly handling Lon, BACnet, Modbus, XML, and OPC to allow integration to everything in your buildings. Perhaps the most important feature of Trend’s product line is its Backward and Forward Compatibility pact. Trend guarantees that no matter what technology develops in the future, all its components will be backwards compatible with everything previously manufactured. The first Trend controller manufactured in 1980 will seamlessly communicate with the Ethernet controllers today, insuring your investment is always secure.
