• Expansion of EBI capacity to now support 300,000 points on 1 EBI server, or 350,000 points across EBI Systems connected
using Distributed Systems Architecture. All 350,000 points are visible from each and every EBI client workstation.
• Scalability extended to the cloud, with Mobile Apps to allow remote building management and tools to allow Occupants
to interact in real time at anytime and anywhere. New in EBI R500, these mobile applications now extend to native Apps
connected through Honeywell Cloud technologies to your EBI systems.
• Integration with a diverse range of devices, enterprise systems, Internet and Intranet sources allowing integrated building
management of key facility control and information.
• Uses industry standard hardware with Windows® 2012 R2 Server and Windows® 10 or Windows® 7 operating systems for
workstations.
• Support for leading open standards: BACnet®, LonMark®, OPC® and Modbus®. Enterprise Web Services are also available to
extend your EBI system with powerful value added applications.
• Web-based user interface provides operators or facility engineers easy access and puts the user more in control. Use of
modern new HTML5 is featured in key parts of EBI R500.
• UL Listed to Standards: UL864 (Accessory and Panels Fire, Smoke Control, Critical & Non Critical Process Control), UL2017
(Signaling Systems), UL916 (Energy Management Systems), UL1017 and UL1076 (Security Systems), UL1610 (Central
Station) and UL294 (Access Control). EBI R500 UL Listing are pending and when approved, we will formally announce this
globally.
• Suitable for use in a restricted Pharmaceutical environment requiring conformance to 21 CFR Part 11 compliance for
electronic records and electronic signatures.
• Scheduling
• HVAC reports
• Alarm Pager.
• Comprehensive control and monitoring of all cardholders at your site, including shift management, guard tour, and visitor
management
• Prompt, intelligent alarms, including operator response instructions and deadman timer.
Life Safety Manager allows monitoring and control of fire alarm systems for fire protection and smoke control. EBI
is available with UL864 Listing for Ethernet based life safety control and monitoring. The operator is provided with
continuous information about the building’s fire protection systems and can actuate a fire alarm or building evacuation
from Station Scheduling.
Digital Video Manager seamlessly integrates video and audio surveillance of your facility using cameras connected directly
to your LAN, enabling flexible event-based recording and viewing.
Energy Manager monitors, validates and optimizes your energy usage enabling you to help the environment while saving
money.

System Integration
EBI provides an open system architecture that consolidates supervisory functions such as alarm, events, reporting and
control into a common user framework. EBI then allows you to choose from a variety of controllers, standard hardware
devices, and communications interfaces that can be integrated into a central system that improves the performance of
your building or facility. From a modest sized Building Manager system, EBI can be expanded through license to a fully
integrated Security, Life Safety, Energy Management and / or Building Management solution. It’s easy.
