Abstract: A building management system, such as a small or medium business, having one or more control devices. Assigning codes to devices, and reading and listing them may aid in configuring the devices. Templates may be used for dynamic configuration of devices and equipment. Representing terminal assignments and wiring diagrams of control devices may be intuitive in that they resemble real hardware for ease of complete installation. The present system and approach may provide an intuitive way of securely registering devices with cloud usage, for example, involving a mobile phone with no manual entry of data so that a user can complete this process with ease. An intuitive, automatic and asynchronous device configuration downloading may be seen, such as to multiple control devices in a single shot. There may be seamless configuration data synchronization, for example, in view of replacement devices, or so the latest data is readily available.

Abstract: A computer system provides a method for analyzing various parameters, variables and/or conditions associated with the operation of HVAC systems. Some example computer systems display a coordinate system with multiple graphs of variables and conditions having disparate units of measure, such as degrees Centigrade, percent, ppm, on/off, etc. In some examples, variables and conditions with similar units of measure are grouped together. The groups of similar units are plotted along different segments of the coordinate system's y-axis. The segments and their respective graphs of similar units are distributed vertically, one above the other. All of the graphs, however, share a common x-axis, which is labeled in units of time. This makes it easier to visually compare multiple, disparate variables and conditions at particular points in time. When an HVAC related problem occurs, the visual comparisons can help identify the problem and its source.

The system also obtains label-label value pairs from the document by utilizing a trained deep learning model, and compares the output with the label-label value pairs extracted earlier. An aggregated confidence score is assigned to the text in the bounding box.

Abstract: Monitoring backend batch processes/agents to identify currently enabled batch processes that running/executing on schedule and those that are not running/executing on schedule. In the event that currently enabled backend batch processes are identified as delayed, a delay time is determined. Such determinations are made on a regular interval, (e.g., hourly or the like), such that, reports is generated and communicated and/or a batch process status portal is updated on the regular interval to reflect the current delayed status of batch process or, in some embodiments, the current status of all of the backend batch processes currently enabled within an enterprise. Identification of backend batch processes that are currently being delayed and the associated delay time provides a basis for determining the cause(s) for the delay and possible corrective action(s), which may be implemented in conjunction with the determinations.
