  • Publication number: 20180232423
    Abstract: A building management system (BMS) includes building equipment, an eventseries generator, and a storage interface. The building equipment are configured to generate a plurality of data samples. Each of the data samples includes a data value and a timestamp. The eventseries generator is configured to assign a sample state to each data sample based on the data value of the data sample and generate one or more events based on the timestamp of each data sample and the sample state assigned to each data sample. Each of the events includes a start time, an end time, and an event state. The eventseries generator is configured to generate an eventseries including the one or more generated events. The storage interface is configured to store the eventseries in an eventseries database.

  • Publication number: 20180232459
    Abstract: A building management system (BMS) includes building equipment configured to provide raw data samples of data points in the BMS, a data collector configured to generate raw data timeseries including raw data samples from the building equipment, and a timeseries processing engine. The timeseries processing engine is configured to identify an initial timeseries processing workflow that applies to the raw data timeseries, identify other data timeseries required as inputs to the initial timeseries processing workflow, and generate an enriched timeseries processing workflow that includes the initial timeseries processing workflow, the raw data timeseries, and the other data timeseries. The timeseries processing engine is configured to execute the enriched timeseries processing workflow to generate a derived data timeseries. The BMS further includes a timeseries storage interface configured to store the raw data timeseries and the derived data timeseries in a timeseries database.

  • Publication number: 20180119975
    Abstract: A heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system for a building space includes an HVAC device including a processing circuit. The processing circuit is configured to generate an encrypted dynamic key based on a manifest stored on the device. The manifest includes a set of entitlements for the HVAC device based on relationships between the HVAC device and entities. The processing circuit is further configured to transmit the stored manifest to an authentication server by sending the encrypted dynamic key to the authentication server and receive an updated manifest from the authentication server based on the encrypted dynamic key. The processing circuit is further configured to send a payload request to the authentication server based on the updated manifest, the payload request including a software update request.
