Abstract: A method of configuring a building management system for operation including accessing a widget library, the widget library comprising a plurality of individual images that each represent operation of one or more building system components, dragging and dropping one or more individual images from the widget library onto an editor page, dragging and dropping one or more points of the one or more building system components onto each of one or more of the individual images on the editor page, and automatically binding the one or more points with the respective individual image.

Abstract: Devices, methods, and systems for controlling a plurality of devices and equipment installed at a building. A system or common model of the devices and equipment at the building may be accessible by a technician during setup of a BMS for a building. The system model may enforce standardized device names and standardized point names that may be hardware agnostic for the plurality of devices and equipment installed at the building. A gateway in communication with the installed devices and equipment, along with a computing device storing the system model, may receive point information from the installed devices and equipment and convert the received point information into hardware agnostic point information. The gateway may receive hardware agnostic control commands from the system model and convert the hardware agnostic control commands into hardware specific control commands.

Abstract: A plurality of triggers may be presented and a selection of a predefined trigger may be accepted. Corresponding actions for the selected trigger may then be presented and an assignment of building control components may be accepted for the corresponding actions. During subsequent operation of a building automation system, the selected trigger may be detected and the corresponding actions may then be performed on the assigned building control components.

Abstract: A system for augmentation of reality-based components and actions related to controllers. Actions may incorporate augmented reality-based wiring, commissioning and monitoring. An augmented reality based application may run in a smart glass, head mounted display (HMD) or in a smart phone, which can augment, for example, a building management system controller and help in wiring, monitoring and commissioning of the controller.

Abstract: A programmable HVAC controller that include a controller and a touch screen user interface is configured to control one or more pieces of HVAC equipment in accordance with a programmable schedule. In some instances, the controller of the programmable HVAC controller is programmed to define a number of columns on the touch screen display, such that a selected day of the programmable schedule may be visually represented across two or more adjacent columns of the touch screen display, with the selected day of the programmable schedule beginning in a first column and extending across and into a second adjacent column of the touch screen display. The controller may be programmed to monitor the touch screen display and allow a user to set a start time and/or an end time of a time period of the selected day of the programmable schedule by touching the first column and/or the second column of the touch screen display.
