The Facility PrimeTM Editor application provides all the capabilities of the Facility Prime application (see below) as well as the ability to create/modify graphics to exact user needs. Proper log-on and password authentication with a Siemens APOGEE IP panel is required to enable Facility Prime Editor’s online configuration functions. A library of graphical elements containing gauges, graphs, device images and position animation is included with Facility Prime Editor. In addition, editors may import documents, photos, and images to be used in their graphics. Building automation controller data and equipment settings are linked to graphics by entering point address information.

The Facility PrimeTM application is a building management iPad® application for interaction with the APOGEE Building Automation System (BAS). Facility Prime is a blank framework when downloaded and utilizes customized screens created in Facility Prime Editor. After configuration, Facility Prime enables quick, mobile interaction to view only or view and command environmental conditions and HVAC control systems. Facility Prime goes beyond accessing data and provides two-way interaction between users and the building automation system.
