Registration Open for BACnet® PlugFest 2018
ATLANTA (PRWEB) August 07, 2018 -- The BACnet Testing Laboratories Working Group (BTL-WG) invites manufacturers of BACnet products to attend the 19th annual PlugFest, the industry’s leading workshop for companies to perform interoperability testing for their BACnet-enabled solutions. The event will take place at The University of New Hampshire’s InterOperability Laboratory in Durham, NH, October 9 – 11, 2018. The BTL-WG will have a meeting preceding PlugFest on October 8, 2018.
PlugFest is a unique event that permits vendors to test their BACnet products with BACnet devices from other vendors in a neutral and friendly environment. Last year, 74 BACnet engineers representing five continents attended, working together to improve their BACnet implementation and testing methods.
“PlugFest provides an opportunity for suppliers to validate the interoperability of their BACnet products and identify potential costly implementation errors,” stated Andy McMillan, BACnet International president and managing director. “The fact that we are in our nineteenth consecutive year of PlugFest is a testament to the collaborative nature of the BACnet community and is one of the reasons BACnet has established itself as the global standard for building automation and control systems.”
Registration for PlugFest is currently open and can be accessed at bacnetinternational.org/pf_registration. For more information, please visit bacnetinternational.org/plugfest or contact [email protected].
