ECHONET 住宅設備エミュレータ ECHOSET

ECHOSET is an ECHONET Lite equipment emulator: instead of wiring up a wall of real air conditioners, solar inverters, batteries, and water heaters, developers and exhibitors present a network full of believable device behavior from a single box. That collapses lab footprint, cost, and scheduling friction for anyone building or demonstrating home-energy and HVAC controllers.

Manufacturer coverage spans the names Japanese smart-home buyers recognize—Panasonic, Daikin, Mitsubishi, Sharp, and others—so interoperability testing tracks what the market actually ships, not a single vendor’s dev kit. More than fifteen device classes gives breadth for controller logic that spans climate, generation, storage, and water heating.

Housing exhibitions and corporate showrooms benefit because demos stay deterministic and portable; engineering teams benefit because CI and bench setups no longer depend on scarce hardware loaners. At ¥35,000 (tax excluded), ECHOSET positions itself as a pragmatic stand-in for physical plant during ECHONET Lite development and customer-facing demos.
