A device management system includes a storage unit which stores, in advance and in correlation with device identification information set in each steam controller, location information indicating a location of each steam controller. The storage unit further stores in advance work patterns for the steam controller according to a classification based on a device type and an installation state of the steam controller. The system further includes a data extraction unit configured to extract from the storage unit the location information from the device identification information based on detection information. The data extraction unit is further configured to extract a corresponding work pattern from the device type and the installation state specified from the device identification information. A work information generation unit is included for generating work information including the extracted location information and work pattern for each work-target device.

A system for remotely monitoring a process or equipment comprises: processing means for receiving one or more sensed outputs representative of one or more environmental conditions and/or process parameters and/or equipment conditions; interface means configurable by a user for selecting a subset of the one or more sensed outputs and for defining at least one output data string dependent on the one or more sensed outputs; and communication means for transmitting the at least one output data string.

An equipment control method, applied to a mobile terminal, includes: positioning, in response to the mobile terminal pointing to equipment to be controlled in which an external ultra-wideband positioning device is installed, the external ultra-wideband positioning device, the external ultra-wideband positioning device having a binding relationship with the equipment to be controlled; determining the equipment to be controlled that is bound to the external ultra-wideband positioning device based on the binding relationship, in response to positioning to the external ultra-wideband positioning device; and retrieving and displaying a control interface of the equipment to be controlled that matches the equipment to be controlled. When the terminal points to the equipment to be controlled, it can automatically select and control the equipment to be controlled in which an external ultra-wideband positioning device is installed, such that the equipment that originally had no ultra-wideband positioning control can be controlled automatically and intelligently.

Provided is an equipment registration terminal comprising: a position determination unit configured to determine a position of the equipment registration terminal; a positioning means storage unit configured to store information on a positioning means to determine the position of the equipment registration terminal; an error estimation unit configured to estimate a positioning error in the position of the equipment registration terminal based on the information on the positioning means; and an equipment registration unit configured to register, in registration of a position of equipment to be registered by using the position of the equipment registration terminal, an error in the position of the equipment based on the positioning error, in an associated manner. The positioning means storage unit may store information indicating a positioning method in the positioning means, and the error estimation unit may estimate the positioning error according to the positioning method.

A mobile commissioning device for commissioning building equipment in or around a building includes a processing circuit. The processing circuit includes a processor and memory storing instructions executed by the processor. The processing circuit establishes location of the mobile commissioning device and building equipment within the building. The processing circuit also detects and receives commissioning data from building equipment located within a building zones of the building as the mobile commissioning device moves between the building zones. The processing circuit further stores the commissioning data from the building equipment in a temporary commissioning database within the mobile commissioning device and transmits the commissioning data from the temporary commissioning database to a permanent server.

Systems and methods for enabling an augmented reality device to easily collect, analyze, transmit, and act on wireless information transmitted from various instruments on hydrocarbon production and pipeline skids. The augmented reality device preferentially presents and records available data streams from the various instruments on the hydrocarbon production and pipeline skids in an augmented reality user interface. The augmented reality user interface preferentially presents such data streams as readings from the various instruments in an easy-to-read, color-coded display, wherein the color coding relates to various in-tolerance and out-of-tolerance ranges related to each of the various instruments.

A method of commissioning a field device in an industrial system network includes: a) connecting a field device to an industrial system network; c) providing information about the field device, the information including functional information for the field device; d) utilizing the functional information for the field device to retrieve information relating to a role of the field device in an automation application; f) utilizing capability information relating to a field device type of the field device and the information relating to the role of the field device in the automation application to retrieve a parameter set for the field device for operation in the automation application; and g) downloading the parameter set to the field device.

Techniques for using wireless electronic keys with devices are disclosed. For example, a computer system can program an access code into a programmable wireless electronic key. An action or function of the device can then be made contingent on there being a match between the access code from the key and an access code known by the device. Also, audit data such as device access history can be wirelessly transferred from a device to an electronic key, whereupon the key can later transfer this audit data to a computer for analysis.

Systems and methods for performing operations based on acoustic locationing are described. An example device includes one or more microphones configured to sense sound waves propagating in an environment. The example device also includes one or more processors and one or more memories coupled to the one or more processors. The one or more memories store instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the device to recover sound wave information from the sensed sound waves, detect a presence of one or more persons in the environment based on the received sound wave information, determine an operation to be performed by one or more smart devices based on the detected presence of one or more persons, and instruct the one or more smart devices to perform the operation.
