CBAS Professional


Computrols Building Automation System (CBAS) was developed to provide complete control for even the largest buildings, yet CBAS Professional is incredibly simple to learn and manage.

CBAS Professional is a full-featured version of CBAS which will communicate with an unlimited amount of hardware and software points. It comes with the CBAS Professional server license, plus two additional CBAS Workstation licenses. Therefore, an original CBAS Professional installation can have up to three functional computers on a network. More systems can be added as needed. The workstations (we call them Graphical Workstations or GWs) can function remotely via the Internet.

CBAS Add-Ons

  • CBAS-WEB-OT – Provides tenant overtime requests via web.
  • CBAS-GW – License to add one workstation to a CBAS system.
