Abstract: A method of commissioning a plurality of controllers includes identifying a plurality of controllers that are operably coupled to a network in a building management system. Each of the plurality of controllers are configured to control one or more of a plurality of building management system components within a building management system. A first controller is selected as a source controller. Two or more of the remaining controllers are selected as target controllers. A synch operation is initiated that synchs the control logic of the source controller with each of the two or more target controllers over the network, resulting in each of the two or more target controllers having the control logic of the source controller. The source controller and the two or more target controllers are subsequently used to control one or more respective building management system components of the building management system.

Abstract: A controller that is configured to control operation of a building component may be programmed using a programming tool to build a controller logic that utilizes sub-structures organized within a hierarchal tree, which may then be downloaded to the controller. The controller is operated via the controller logic such that the controller controls operation of the building component. The programming tool may subsequently be used to update one or more of the sub-structures. The one or more updated sub-structures may be downloaded to the controller while not downloading one or more of the sub-structures that were not updated. The method includes continuing to control operation of the building component using the controller logic that now includes the one or more updated sub-structures.

Abstract: Data warehousing solutions utilize lengthy and complex SQL instructions. These SQL instructions are difficult to parse and understand underlying logic/transformations performed. Conventionally, extensive analysis, time and effort needs to be spent to understand such SQL instructions and detect any data abnormalities in the SQL instructions. This technical challenge is exacerbated in high-volume production systems that include multiple systems that each utilize their own sets of SQL instructions. Apparatus and methods described herein take as input a natural language inquiry received from a user. The system attempts to parse the natural language inquiry to identify one or more relevant SQL instructions. Apparatus and methods may utilize AI and natural language processing to locate relevant SQL instructions, deconstruct them into subqueries and map a logical operational flow. Based on the mapped logic flow, a natural language response may be formulated to the user inquiry.
