ES/S-A HOTA "Heart of the Appliance" is a open Virtualized Automation System developed on base of the Extensible Services / Server for Automation Platform.
This Automation system was the first member of the newly created ES/S-A Platform, and was subjected to replace the outdated Predecessor TAC "Terminal Automation Controller", that was both technically and schematically inferior.
The ES/S-A Core has been planned extensively in regards to stability, persistency, veriability and security. To also serve the technically sensitive subject of public facility automation, the software has been required to pass certain aspects on conventions, reliability and safety. The application is also subjected to certain requirements in engineering that point to it's origins in public applications, the stric panic escalation sequence is one of these requiements.

Overview
The first version was published early 2017. The predecessor has been phased out completely mid 2017. The first version had poor support for additional abstraction layers and experienced major issues with persistency.
The need for constant impovements to usability and interopability led the team of engineers to permanently install the current stable version in a one-of-a-kind research building, to monitor, analyze and improve the system under exceptionally real conditions.
Technical
The ES/S-A Core application consists of the ESSInstance, that monitors, starts and ends all further processes, delegates resources and serves as mediator between components (Modularity). The System has integrated modules for
- HTTP(S) Web Services
- TCP/IP Communication
- PBX Interfaces
- Public Announcements and SIP Calling
- E-Mail Signaling
- Primitive Abstraction Layers (PAL)
- Facility Services
- Primive Data Points
- Complex Objects
- Script Engines (Extensible Object Script)
- Building Model Providers
- Network Cell Presency
- HVAC and Climatization
- Energy Monitoring
- Electric Planning and Lookup
- Fire and Threat Protection
Integrated Modules
- Primitive Abstraction Layers
- INEGL Protocol, via IP
- KNX Bus IEC 14543-3 via IP, USB, Serial
- ARTNET, via IP, USB
- Modbus RTU/IP, via IP, USB, Serial
- ASHRAE BACnet, via IP
User Interfaces
ES/S-A HOTA runs as command-line output only application. Most of the User interfaces are delivered via HTTP and renderen in a Browser Window. User interface can be serve interactive resources that are either directly accessible or require a middleware.
| User Interface | Type | Audience |
|---|---|---|
| sv_ata | HTML5 (HTTP/S) | Residential focused user interface with support for mobile devices and touch screens, rich animated using extesively graphics elements, fun to use and interact with. Low technical knowledge required. Has many features like Screensavers, News, Weather forecast, Graphs, Visual control, Virtual Tours and more. |
| sv_gna | HTML5 (HTTP/S) | Professional focused user interface with support for multi-screen setups. Technical knowledge required to address all functions. |
| mta | JSON (HTTP/S) | Used for the MicroTaskInvoker application (Native Windows Application). Provides minimal acces to preconfigured functions. |
| cisco | XML (HTTP/S) | Used for Cisco SCCP Telephones to access the system via various Cisco IP Phones. Provides secured access to number and call registers, system shortcuts and control of devices. |
| telnet | TCP/IP | Provides remote control of the system using minimal bandwidth. Has access to many features of the system. Please notice that remote access must be provided by using an encrypted tunnel like IKEv2, because Telnet does not support TLS encryption. |
| esterm | TCP/IP | Provides partial graphical control of the system using text-only transmission utilizing the ESTERM Protocol, can be used with Netroda Technologies NETerm. |
