Operation Level users in Domorela are allowed to explore the whole topology of the smart building facilities managed by a Domorela unit. It's possible to navigate through the different imported projects to know about logical and physical topologies.

The logical topology views are those related to Areas, with their respective lines and devices, and Group Addresses with their respective Datapoints (Communication Objects), defined in each of the projects imported into Domorela's configuration, while the physical topology views are those related to Building Locations and devices contained in each location.

Domorela's Blog: Administration Level Features: Configurations (I)

There are two main types of configurations in Domorela: the ones related to the smart building installation and the ones related to Domorela Application and System parameters. This article sumarizes both types of configurations, while the following extend each of them.

Configurations of the smart building installation are thought to be the most intuitive as possible and their objective is to enrich the objects imported from the ETS projects loaded in Domorela's configuration. Thus the first thing to do to configure Domorela with the smart building installation is to import one or more ETS projects using the Import Configuration Wizard.

In this article we will explain in more detail how to import ETS projects and configure installation objects in Domorela. As said in our last article, Domorela enrich installation objects adding contracts in order to classify them as Domorela's Elements: Lights, HVAC, Shutters, Multimedia, Alarms, Security, Actuators and Sensors.
