  • Patent number: 11971692
    Abstract: A system for virtual commissioning of a building management system includes one or more memory devices configured to store instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to: receive, at a virtual server, product installation data from a building management system controller installed at a building site via a first connection, the product installation data corresponding to a product installation at the building site; receive, commissioning data from the remote commissioning system via a second connection; configure one or more products installed at the building site to be controlled by the virtual building management system on the virtual server; and selectively transfer control of the one or more products installed at the building site from the virtual building management system hosted at on the virtual server to the building management system controller installed at the building site.

  • Publication number: 20240045389
    Abstract: A system for building management system commissioning on an application includes one or more memory devices configured to store instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to host a building management system commissioning workflow on an application server; provide data indicating commissioning activities defined by the building management system commissioning workflow from the application server to a user device for display on a user interface; dynamically update a commissioning activity status of the commissioning activities in the building management system commissioning workflow hosted on the application server responsive to data received at the application server from at least one of the user device or a remote device at the building site communicatively connected to the application server; and initiate an automated action based on the commissioning activity status of the commissioning activities in the building management system commissioning workflow app

  • Publication number: 20240035696
    Abstract: A building system including one or more storage devices storing instructions thereon that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to ingest information associated with a physical asset of a building, the physical asset being one of a heating system, a ventilation system, or an air conditioning system; cross-correlate a first identifier associated with the information with a second identifier associated with a virtual asset of a graphical model of the building to determine a location of the virtual asset within the graphical model, the virtual asset corresponding to the physical asset; cause the graphical model of the building to include a representation of the information using the location of the virtual asset; and cause a display device of a user device to display the graphical model within a user interface.

  • Publication number: 20240012378
    Abstract: A method for completing a project to provide a building automation system includes running an automated scan configured to find points and controllers in the building automation system, validating completion of a first subset of planned tasks for providing the building automation system based on the scan, identifying a second subset of the planned tasks for providing the building automation system as not yet completed based on the scan, and causing completion of the second subset of the planned tasks.

  • Publication number: 20240005223
    Abstract: A method includes running a scan configured to determine available resources of a building management system, determining a difference between the available resources and requirements of a smart building feature, determining one or more updates to the building management system expected to eliminate the difference, and implementing the one or more updates.

  • Publication number: 20240004361
    Abstract: A system includes a system configuration tool configured to provide a plan for installation of a building management system (BMS), a commissioning wizard configured to commission devices and equipment of the BMS as installed at a building, a performance verification tool configured to run a scan of the BMS and collected combined commissioning data by combining a result of the scan with the plant from the system configuration tool and commissioning information from the commissioning wizard, an auto-configurator configured to building a digital twin of the BMS using the combined commissioning data, and an enterprise manager configured to alter operations of the equipment of the BMS in affecting a variable state or condition of the building using a smart building feature reliant on the digital twin.

  • Patent number: 7349294
    Abstract: A disc processor, such as a printer or a recorder, or a combination processor, has a robotic arm that will pick a compact disc to be processed from a storage stack and move it to a tray associated with the processor. The robotic arm includes a sensor to sense when a disc is in a position to be held in a picker on the arm. The sensor signal can be used for determining whether or not the stack of discs in the input bin is of the correct height; for determining whether or not more than one disc has been picked up by the handler; and also for determining the presence of a disc in the tray or held on the picker arm.
