1 Overview
The Cypress Envirosystems Wireless Pneumatic Thermostat (WPT) retrofits an
existing pneumatic thermostat to provide Direct Digital Control (DDC) like zone control
functionality at a fraction of the time and cost without disturbing occupants.
The WPT enables remote monitoring of zone temperature, branch pressure, remote
control of setpoints, and programmable setback or setup of the pneumatic HVAC
systems. It also enables integration with utility Demand Response programs.
The WPT can be integrated with an existing Building Management System via
BACnet/IP. As a result, the WPT helps a building owner and tenants save energy by
implementing indoor temperature policies, improve comfort, and reduce the
maintenance cost of the legacy pneumatic HVAC systems.

Prerequisites for Installation
The WPT Green Box Server and Blue Box Gateway, requires a 120VAC outlet for
power. Additionally, the WPT Server can communicate to a Building Automation
System (BAS) using BACnet/IP. This communication requires an ethernet connection
