Honeywell Niagara integration
Analytics for Honeywell Niagara, beyond the wire sheet.
Explore reads your Niagara stations read-only and returns one ranked queue across the estate: faults, waste, and what fixing each is worth.

The problem
Open framework, per-building logic.
Niagara is the most open thing in building automation: one framework, thousands of integrators, stations running everything from Honeywell WEBs to third-party JACEs. Yet analytics for Honeywell Niagara usually means logic somebody built on the wire sheet years ago, tuned for one building, maintained by whoever still remembers how.
Explore takes a different route. It reads the points your stations already expose, grounds them in each building's physics through FrostDynamics, and ranks findings across every site. No logic to write, nothing installed in the station.
What it does
From station points to a ranked queue.
Detection without wire-sheet logic.
Six detection methods ship ready to run on the points a station already trends. Nobody has to build or maintain analytic logic per building.
Every station, one queue.
WEBs supervisors, third-party Niagara sites, the odd non-Niagara building. Explore normalises them into one model and ranks the findings by cost.
Forecasts and what-if.
Demand forecasts with confidence bounds, and setpoint changes tested in the model before they go near a station.
Compliance evidence, continuously.
BREEAM, LEED, Nordic Swan and EPBD evidence built from the data your stations already produce.
Deployment
Three routes into a Niagara estate.
BACnet from the station.
Niagara stations expose their points over BACnet. A small agent alongside the supervisor reads them and syncs read-only to Explore. Your station logic stays untouched.
Cloud where you have it.
Estates with a cloud path connect with credentials, and data can flow the same day.
The long tail.
Old JACEs, unusual drivers, a station someone customised in 2014. Tell us what it runs. If it exposes points, we can usually read it, and if it needs a connector, we build one, usually in under a week.
The question every Niagara estate asks
Niagara Analytics exists. Why Explore?
Ships ready, stays current.
Niagara Analytics gives your integrator a framework to build detection logic on the wire sheet. That's real work, per building, forever. Explore's six detection methods arrive built, and FrostDynamics grounds them in each building's physics without anyone programming a rule.
Sees past the station.
Wire-sheet logic sees one station. Explore ranks the compressor in building 2 against the schedule fault in building 9, and folds in the meters and sensors no station reads.
Nothing to rip out.
If your integrator built analytics that earn their keep, keep them running. Explore reads alongside, read-only, and covers everything they don't.
At a glance
- Works with
- Honeywell WEBs and other Niagara stations that expose points over BACnet, mixed estates
- Connection
- local agent over BACnet, or a cloud path where available
- Write access
- none, read-only by default
- Hardware
- none
- Data residency
- EU, GDPR-native
- First findings
- in the first week
- Also reads
- meters, IoT sensors, and the non-Niagara buildings in your portfolio
Niagara is one route in. Explore also reads Siemens Desigo and Schneider EcoStruxure estates into the same model, ranked together with portfolio-wide BMS analytics. The analytics layer itself lives on the FrostLogic Explore platform page.
Before you ask
Analytics for Niagara, the questions we get.
Yes. WEBs is Honeywell's Niagara line, and Explore reads it like any Niagara station: over BACnet through a local agent, read-only, or through a cloud path where you have one.
No. Explore never writes to the station and never edits the wire sheet. It reads the points the station exposes, and that's the whole footprint.
No. Your integrator's logic keeps running, and Explore adds portfolio-wide detection, forecasting and ranking on top. Keep what earns its keep.
It's normal. Point naming drifts between integrators, and Explore's ontology normalises those differences into one model of the estate.
No. It connects read-only by default. Recommendations come with evidence, and the change happens in your station, made by your people.
Explore reads Siemens, Schneider, Trend, Bastec and anything speaking BACnet, Modbus, OPC UA, MQTT or M-Bus. One queue across all of it.
Connect one building. Three weeks. We show you what we find.
Pick one building, even a couple of fan coil units. We connect it remotely, let two to three weeks of data accumulate, then go through the findings with you. There's nothing to install and no commitment past the pilot.
Remote and read-only. Senior engineer on the review call.

A 20-minute demo on your own building's data. Senior engineer on the call, no procurement round.
