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

Abstract: A method for determining updates in a building management system (BMS) is shown. The method includes receiving, via an on premise server, configuration data associated with at least part of the BMS. The method includes storing the configuration data within a cloud server communicably coupled with the on premise server. The method includes determining, via a difference engine within the cloud server, information comprising a delta between the configuration data and one or more previous sets of configuration data stored within the cloud server. The method includes providing, to the on premise server, the information to an interface.

Abstract: The present disclosure envisages a building management system for a building. The building management system includes a building controller, a power over Ethernet (PoE) adapter, and a PoE source. The building controller is configured to operate one or more building equipment of the building, wherein the building controller is powered via alternating current (AC) power. The power over Ethernet (PoE) adapter comprises one or more circuits configured to receive PoE from the PoE source, wherein the PoE source is configured to generate the PoE having direct current (DC) power. Further, the PoE adapter is configured to generate AC power based on the PoE received from the PoE source, and provide the AC power to the building controller.
