How to Create a Simple Sequence of Operation Using the BASemulator
At the 2026 HVAC Excellence National HVACR Education Conference (March 22 to 26 in Las Vegas, Nevada), we will be displaying a training video that demonstrates how to create a simple sequence of operation (SOO) for dual-action temperature control on an emulated BAScontroller. This SOO is developed using BASemulator and Sedona Application Editor (SAE) from Contemporary Controls’ BAScontrol Toolset for our BAScontrol22D dual-Ethernet unitary controller.
The BAScontrol22D is part of our BAScontrol series of open controllers. The BAScontrollers, along with our Micro PC Edge controller series feature BACnet as the protocol and license-free Sedona as the programming language. Each series is freely programmable using the BAScontrol Toolset which is a free set of software tools that allows students to configure, test, emulate, and archive controller operation on a Windows PC.
Our other product lines that support HVACR training and education include:
- BASrouter series of BACnet multi-network routers provide standalone routing between BACnet/IP, BACnet Ethernet, and BACnet MS/TP which allows students to install and troubleshoot a mix of BACnet network technologies within a single BACnet internetwork.
- BASview3 stand-alone, graphical supervisor provides both BACnet/IP client functionality and control in one package, allowing students to access supervisory features with no prior training.
- Skorpion series of unmanaged switches provide a simple, cost-effective method of expanding Ethernet networks and interconnecting Ethernet devices in the classroom.
- Skorpion series of IP routers allow instructors to create an IP network within the classroom/lab, while securely connecting to the campus IT network.
The National HVACR Education Conference brings together HVACR educators, manufacturers, associations, and other industry professionals to share resources and the latest applications about equipment, refrigerants, codes, regulations, and teaching techniques. The conference provides a unique opportunity to gain firsthand access to the latest advancements in HVACR tools, equipment, and training solutions.
