The picture shows a modern office building on a sunny day. The building is in the centre of the picture and takes up most of the frame. It has a glass and metal façade that reflects the daylight. The structure of the building consists of several rectangular glass windows separated by vertical and horizontal metal struts. The metal struts are in different colours, giving the façade a lively and modern look. In the foreground, at the bottom right of the picture, you can see a tree whose green leaves are brightly illuminated by the sunlight. The leaves partially cover the bottom right corner of the building. The sky is clear and blue with only a few small clouds in the top left of the picture. The sun's rays create lens effects that can be seen as bright, circular reflections in the picture. In the upper left area of the picture, at the edge of the building, a few plants can be seen on a roof garden, bringing a touch of nature into the otherwise urban picture.

How does it work

ista's symphonic M-Bus system operates on a sophisticated level, enabling the centralized and real-time monitoring of multiple utility meters including heat, water, electricity, and gas. This system utilizes a master-slave architecture where a single master device communicates with up to 2,000 slave devices (meters), collecting and processing data through the M-Bus (Meter-Bus) network. This wired bus system ensures a reliable and secure transmission of data, which is encrypted for added security. The M-Bus is designed for minimal energy consumption and can operate over long cable distances, supporting diverse building layouts. 

Technical features.

  • Supports up to 2,000 meters for extensive network setups.
  • Gathers energy usage data silently without physical access to residences.
  • Provides real-time access to consumption data for enhanced management.
  • Utilizes advanced encryption to secure data transmission over the M-Bus network.
  • Offers flexible wiring options to accommodate various architectural configurations.
