Abstract: A system including a security system having a plurality of sensors and actuators within a building and a respective control feature embodied as a programmed processor and associated with operation of the security system and at least some of the plurality of sensors and actuators, a user display of a portable wireless device that depicts a portion of the building using a building information model (BIM), an user interface of the wireless device that receives a symbol drawn by a human user over part of the building portion and a processor that correlates the symbol with a control feature of the security system based upon proximity of the symbol on the display with a location of an associated sensor or actuator of the control feature within the BIM model of the building.

Abstract: Systems and methods of interacting with a building security system are provided. Some methods can include displaying a BIM diagram of a secured area on a user interface device, receiving first user input, via the user interface device, indicative of a change to an operating parameter of a security system monitoring the secured area, correlating the user input with at least one security device of the security system, and transmitting a signal to a control panel of the security system instructive of the change to the operating parameter associated with the at least one security device.
