1.1 Scope
1.1.1 This Standard applies to newly produced gas-fired unvented room heaters and gas-fired unvented decorative room heaters for connection to the house fuel supply system (see Part IV, Definitions), hereinafter referred to as room heaters or appliances, constructed entirely of new, unused parts and materials, having input ratings up to and including 40,000 Btu per hour (11 723 W)…
Information technology - Home Electronic System (HES) interfaces - Part 2: Simple Interface Type 1
A Simple Interface (SI) is an interface between devices and a home network in the Home Electronic System (HES). The SI type 1 connects simple devices offering and accepting only a two state signal to an HES home network. Two signals are available at the SI type 1. One is a control signal for turning the device on and off. The other is a monitor signal for checking the state of the device. This…
Information technology - Home Electronic System (HES) application model - Part 3: Model of an energy...
This model of an energy management system for residences extends the set of HES (Home Electronic System) application models. Models for lighting and security have already been developed and accepted. These models should facilitate the validation of the language specified for HES in ISO/IEC 15067-1. These models have been developed to foster interoperability among products from competing or…
Information Technology - Home Electronic System (HES) Architecture - Part 2: Device modularity
HES standards address both interoperability requirements, interconnectivity requirements and plug-compatibility requirements. Devices are described as interoperable if the functionality of the higher communication layers is such that commands can be exchanged and result in meaningful action. For interconnectivity it is sufficient to specify mechanical, electrical, and functional (lower layer…
