Abstract: Multiple AECS sensors are attached to workstations or personal computers. A Local Area Network (“LAN”) connects the computers, and, by extension, the AECS sensors to system controllers. The system controllers direct the behavior of HVAC equipment such as variable air volume (“VAV”) boxes, fans, heaters, and air conditioners. An Energy Management Server (“EMS”) is utilized to gather information regarding current utility rates and weather forecasts. Individual users may request environmental set-points using application software residing on the computer. A composite set-point may be generated using a weighted average algorithmic calculation. Requests from disparate users may be given varying weight in determining the composite set-point.
