What is enteliWEB used for?

enteliWEB is used by facility operators and building automation engineers to monitor and control HVAC systems, manage alarms, view trend logs, schedule equipment, and generate energy reports across one or multiple buildings from a web browser.

enteliWEB is developed by Delta Controls, a Canadian building automation manufacturer headquartered in Surrey, British Columbia, specializing in BACnet-native building automation controllers and software.

Does enteliWEB support non-Delta BACnet devices?

Yes. enteliWEB communicates with any BACnet/IP or BACnet MS/TP compliant device regardless of manufacturer, including controllers from Siemens, Johnson Controls, Distech, and Automated Logic.

What protocol does enteliWEB use?

enteliWEB communicates natively over BACnet/IP (UDP port 47808). BACnet MS/TP field devices are reached through BACnet routers. Modbus devices require a BACnet/Modbus gateway.

Quick Answer

enteliWEB is a web-based SCADA and building automation platform developed by Delta Controls. It connects to BACnet/IP and BACnet MS/TP networks to provide browser-based operator interface, trend logging, alarm management, scheduling, and energy reporting for commercial HVAC and building management systems. It is used in universities, hospitals, commercial campuses, and multi-building facility portfolios.

What Is enteliWEB?

enteliWEB is Delta Controls' flagship building automation SCADA platform. Unlike general-purpose industrial SCADA systems designed for manufacturing or pipeline monitoring, enteliWEB is purpose-built for building automation — specifically designed for HVAC system monitoring, energy management, and facility operations. It runs as a web application on Windows Server with IIS and Microsoft SQL Server, providing browser-based access from any device without client software installation.

Delta Controls, headquartered in Surrey, British Columbia, is a leading manufacturer of BACnet-native building automation controllers. enteliWEB integrates natively with Delta's ORCA controller family and also supports any third-party BACnet-compliant device, making it suitable for mixed-vendor building automation environments.

enteliWEB Architecture

enteliWEB Server — Windows Server application running under IIS with SQL Server backend. Manages BACnet communication, data logging, alarm processing, and web client serving.
Web Client — Browser-based operator interface accessible from any modern web browser (Chrome, Edge, Firefox). No desktop client installation required. Provides graphics, trends, alarms, schedules, and configuration tools.
BACnet Network — enteliWEB communicates natively over BACnet/IP (UDP port 47808). BACnet MS/TP field devices are reached through BACnet routers (typically Delta Controls ORCA controllers).
Delta Controls Controllers — ORCA series controllers provide direct digital control (DDC) of HVAC equipment. They connect to enteliWEB via BACnet/IP and serve as routers to MS/TP field devices (VAV boxes, fan coil units).

Supported Protocols

BACnet/IP — Primary communication protocol for controller and device integration
BACnet MS/TP — RS-485 token-passing protocol for field-level devices, accessed through BACnet routers
Modbus — Via BACnet/Modbus gateway devices for power meters, lighting controllers, and other Modbus equipment
OPC — Integration with OPC servers for cross-platform data sharing

Key Features

Graphics Editor — Build custom floor plans and equipment diagrams with dynamic BACnet data binding, symbol library, and state-based animations.
Trend Logs — Record BACnet point history at configurable intervals with SQL Server storage, chart overlay, and CSV export.
Alarm Management — Receive BACnet alarm notifications, manage active alarm lists, route notifications by email, and maintain alarm history.
Scheduling — Create BACnet weekly and exception schedules for HVAC equipment operation and setpoint management.
Energy Reporting — Built-in energy dashboards, KPI tracking, consumption analysis, and EUI calculations.

enteliWEB in Commercial HVAC and Building Automation

enteliWEB is deployed in building types that require centralized HVAC monitoring and energy management:

Universities and campuses — Central monitoring of dozens to hundreds of buildings with different HVAC systems, consolidated alarm management, and campus-wide energy reporting.
Hospitals and healthcare — Critical environment monitoring (operating rooms, labs, pharmacies), strict alarm response requirements, and regulatory compliance trending.
Commercial office buildings — Tenant comfort management, energy optimization, and preventive maintenance scheduling.
Multi-building portfolios — Property management companies monitoring multiple sites from a single enteliWEB instance with per-building energy benchmarking.

How enteliWEB Compares to Other BAS Platforms

Compared to Ignition by Inductive Automation, enteliWEB is purpose-built for building automation with native BACnet support, a BAS-specific graphics library, and built-in energy reporting. Ignition is a more flexible general-purpose SCADA platform better suited for industrial process control and IIoT. For a detailed comparison, see enteliWEB vs Ignition.

Compared to Tridium Niagara, enteliWEB offers tighter integration with Delta Controls hardware and a more streamlined operator experience, while Niagara provides broader multi-protocol support and a larger third-party integrator ecosystem. Compared to Schneider Electric EcoStruxure Building Operation, enteliWEB is typically easier to deploy for pure BACnet environments but has a smaller global market presence.
