Echelon's network technology allows the end user to remotely connect, monitor, control, measure and diagnose smart devices. LonWorks networking simplifies control system management, saves energy, improves operations and reduces system costs.
LonWorks network solutions provide manufacturers of today's devices with a unique opportunity to offer new revenue-generating services, increase the amount of useful data about their products, increase brand value and increase the number of customers. For example, manufacturers of dishwashers, washing machines and other appliances can use LonWorks devices to collect data on the use of their products, which can be used to both increase sales and improve the performance of new products. Manufacturers can use network connections to add new functionality to their products over time through paid upgrades, user fees or in the form of free loyalty programs. With remote diagnostic capabilities, the supplier can anticipate possible equipment failures and have the device serviced, saving the customer time.
