Abstract: A building management system (BMS) interface system. The BMS interface system includes a user interface and a BMS controller in communication with the user interface. The BMS controller includes a processor. The processor is configured to display a graphical scheduling interface on the user interface and receive a scheduling input from the user interface. The processor is further configured to extract one or more scheduling elements from the received scheduling input and convert the scheduling elements into one or more BMS data objects. The processor is further configured to update the graphical scheduling interface displayed on the user interface. The processor is also configured to execute one or more scheduling instructions based on the received scheduling input, wherein the scheduling instructions are associated with the operation of one or more BMS devices.

Abstract: A building management system includes (i) one or more building systems including equipment configured to serve one or more spaces in a building and (ii) one or more circuits. The one or more circuits are configured to receive an input to invoke a control strategy to modify a condition of the one or more spaces; define an output of the control strategy where the output relates to a modification that impacts at least one of a location, an equipment type, or a point type; perform a query to identify one or more points associated with the output where the one or more points are defined in terms of at least one of the location, the equipment type, or the point type; and automatically modify one or more values of the one or more points to implement the control strategy.

Abstract: A building management system including one or more circuits configured to receive a selection of an object associated with one of a building system, a piece of equipment, or a space of one or more building systems, one or more pieces of equipment, and/or one or more spaces of a building; determine the one or more pieces of equipment related to the object and/or the one or more spaces related to the object; and generate a graphical user interface illustrating (i) a relationship of the object with (a) the one or more pieces of equipment related to the object and/or (b) the one or more spaces related to the object and/or (ii) a control path between the object and (a) the one or more pieces of equipment related to the object and/or (b) the one or more spaces related to the object.

Abstract: A building management system (BMS) includes equipment configured to serve one or spaces in a building. The BMS includes a user device configured to display a user interface for monitoring and controlling the BMS. The BMS includes a controller. The controller receives a user query via the user interface. The user query includes a selection of a first object associated with one of a building system, a piece of equipment, or a space in the building. The controller determines one or more pieces of equipment that are impacted by the first object and one or more spaces in the building that are impacted by the first object. The controller generates a user interface illustrating the first object and a relationship of the first object with the one or more pieces of equipment impacted by the first object and the one or more spaces impacted by the first object.

Abstract: A building management system includes a search and control system coupled to a building network. The building network includes a plurality of devices of building equipment that operate to affect a variable state or condition within a building. The search and control system is configured to provide a search interface, receive filter criteria, perform a search regarding the devices of building equipment based on the filter criteria, return a set of search results based on the filter criteria, receive a selection of one or more devices of building equipment of the set of search results, receive command criteria regarding a command to provide to the one or more selected devices of building equipment, and provide the command to the one or more selected devices of building equipment. The command causes the one or more selected devices of building equipment to affect the variable state or condition within the building.

Abstract: A building management system includes building equipment configured to serve one or more spaces in a building or campus. A user device is configured to display a user interface for monitoring and controlling the building equipment and the one or more spaces. The building management system further includes a controller. The controller is configured to determine a role of a user to which the user interface will be displayed, a type of the user device on which the user interface will be displayed, and a type of equipment or space to be monitored and controlled via the user interface. The controller is further configured to select the user interface from a plurality of user interfaces, each user interface corresponding to a different combination of user role, user device type, and equipment type or space type. The controller is further configured to provide the selected user interface to the user device.

Abstract: A building management system includes a plurality of devices of building equipment and a system manager. The system manager is configured to control the devices of building equipment and generate a user interface. The user interface includes a command widget configured to allow a user to input a first command to control a first device of the plurality of devices of building equipment and an add annotation box configured to allow a user to add an annotation to the command. The system manager is further configured to control the first device in response to the command and store the annotation in an annotation database.

Abstract: Systems and methods for creating and using equipment definitions are provided. An archetypal device used to identify one or more data points associated with the archetypal device. A point definition is generated for each identified data point associated with the archetypal device. Each point definition includes an abstraction of a text string extracted from the corresponding data point that is applicable to multiple different devices of the same type of building equipment. The generated point definitions are used to create an equipment definition for a type of building equipment. The equipment definition can be used to identify data points associated with other devices of the same type of building equipment and to automatically create equipment objects representing such devices.
