Abstract
This paper presents the development of a supervision and control system architecture to assist the residential user saving resources and detecting failures. Similar to what happened in the automobile industry, the increasing number of sensors and actuator existing on a building requires a robust, flexible and reliable system. The proposed system uses a microcontroller network to acquire data from sensors and control actuators using different protocols (CAN, I2C and Modbus). The system information and control is provided through a local and remote user interface application, using a computer connected to the network, a database and dedicated software applications.
