Monitoring systems and methods for data collection in an industrial environment are described. A system can include a first and second data collector coupled to input channels and a data acquisition circuit to interpret detection values corresponding to the input channels, wherein the sensor data is acquired from a first route of input channels. A data storage may store sensor specifications for sensors corresponding to the input channels and a data analysis circuit may evaluate the sensor data with respect to stored anticipated state information including an alarm threshold level. When the threshold is exceeded, a communication circuit communicates with a second data collector which transmits a state message related to a first input channel. A response circuit changes a routing of the input channels from a first routing to an alternate routing based on the state message from the second data collector.

A method for assessing a control loop. In the method, the control loop is assigned one degree of fulfillment each with respect to at least three quality criteria. The surface area of a polygon having a geometry defined by the degrees of fulfillment is determined. An overall control quality of the control loop is evaluated on the basis of the surface area.

A building management system includes building equipment operable to affect a physical state or condition of a building, a system manager, and a cloud-based data platform. The system manager is coupled to the building equipment via a system bus and configured to obtain alarm data from the building equipment and generate a timeseries sample including the alarm data. The cloud-based data platform includes a timeseries service configured to receive the timeseries sample from the system manager, extract the alarm data from the timeseries sample, and store the alarm data as a sample of an alarm timeseries.

Systems, methods and an apparatus for data monitoring. A system may include a data acquisition circuit structured to interpret a plurality of detection values, each of the plurality of detection values corresponding to at least one of a plurality of input sensors communicatively coupled to the data acquisition circuit; a data storage circuit structured to store specifications and anticipated state information for a plurality of pump and fan types; an analysis circuit structured to analyze the plurality of detection values relative to specifications and anticipated state information to determine a pump or fan performance parameter; and a response circuit structured to initiate an action in response to the pump or fan performance parameter.

A tool for an approach and mechanism for calculating and configuring memory mapping of trend log objects in a system, such as an HVAC. It may incorporate determining available memory of a controller for trending a unit of equipment of a system. A calculation of available records may be made for configuring and using a trend. The calculation may be made in view of the controller memory and parameters including buffer size, log interval and retention time. A change in parameters may cause a recalculation of available records. The “available record” terms may be regarded as being in a user-understandable format. The format may be intuitive. Anomalies of trends of equipment may lead to spotting issues of the equipment.
