Gira Project Assistant (GPA): one tool – many applications
Configuring products and systems is generally a complex matter, also because different
start-up tools often need to be synchronised. The large number of product-specific software
tools not only eats away at your time and capacity, but also makes it harder to calculate
the programming workload. The Gira Project Assistant (GPA) provides master electricians
with a single start-up tool that can handle a wide range of applications.
Preliminary parametrisation without devices
Previously, configurations were often complicated processes with the
various start-up tools involved needing to be synchronised. The Gira
Project Assistant (GPA) now provides master electricians with a single
start-up tool that can handle a wide range of applications. From version 3
upwards, this tool will also allow you to start up the Gira door intercom
system alongside the familiar logic and visualisation functions.
The ability to start up door communication systems provides master
electricians with a particular time advantage when it comes to buildings
with several residential units, as the GPA allows them to carry out the
configurations even if the physical devices are not yet available. One floor
of the apartment building is initially configured in the GPA, then the
other floors are quickly added through simple copy and paste. Later,
when the devices are available, all that remains to be done is to enter
their bus addresses and import the project into the door communication
system.
Another advantage is that electricians no longer need to visit and enter
the individual apartments to make changes, as they can now easily
make changes to apartment and door stations on their PCs and import
them into the system. The tool links the individual Gira systems together
and thus scores points for ease of use across all phases of
configuration.
The software is free of charge and can be obtained from the Gira website:
