Methods and systems for configuring a modular building control system. An illustrative method may include entering a configuration mode in a base module and in each of the expansion modules. While in the configuration mode, the base module may collect information from each of the expansion modules. A system configuration may be created for the modular building control system based at least in part on the collected information and includes configuration parameters for the base module and each of the expansion modules. The base module may transmit to each of the expansion modules their respective configuration parameters. The base module and each of the expansion modules may install their respective configuration parameters, exit the configuration mode, and enter an operation mode. While in the operation mode, the base module and each of the expansion modules may control the modular building control system.

Systems and methods for building management utilizing adaptive edge processing are disclosed. The building system can store gateway components on storage devices. The gateway components can facilitate communication with a cloud platform and facilitate communication with a physical building device. The building system can identify a computing system of the building that is in communication with the physical building device. The physical building device can store one or more data samples. The building system can deploy the gateway components to the computing system responsive to identifying that the computing system is in communication with the physical building device. The gateway components can cause the computing system to communicate with the physical building device to receive the one or more data samples and cause the computing system to communicate the one or more data samples to the cloud platform.

A building management system (BMS) provides feedback to a user via a user interface to assist the user in configuring the BMS. It can be challenging for new or less experienced users to understand all of the actions they are performing when configuring a BMS. The feedback presented via the user interface includes graphical and textual feedback to alert the user of actions performed when applying tags. The feedback identifies one or more missing requirements associated with the tags. The feedback presented via the user interface also includes textual summaries of control sequences configured using the BMS. The textual summaries include descriptions of control sequences and instructions for properly configuring the building equipment.

A network switch includes a device interface configured to facilitate communication between the network switch and a plurality of building devices that serve a space, network routing circuitry configured to route network communications associated with the building devices in accordance with one or more network parameters, a control circuit configured to control the plurality of devices via the network communications to provide a plurality of space use cases for the space. and a network manager circuit configured to determine values for the one or more network parameters based on the plurality of space use cases for the space.

A system is disclosed. The system may include a modular control unit configured to control power to at least one load device. The modular control unit may include a backplate with a recess that includes a set of backplate electrical contacts. The system may also include a contact element configured to receive the power. The system may also include at least one device control assembly configured to be removably coupled to the backplate. The device control assembly may include a set of device control assembly electrical contacts configured to electrically couple with the set of backplate electrical contacts of the backplate when the at least one device control assembly is coupled to the backplate and configured to electrically decouple from the set of backplate electrical contacts when the at least one device control assembly is decoupled from the backplate.

A diagnostic system diagnoses an abnormality of a diagnostic object by using a plurality of diagnostic logics. The diagnostic system includes an acquisition unit, a determination unit, a generation unit, and an output unit. The acquisition unit acquires diagnostic object information relating to the diagnostic object. The determination unit determines whether each of the diagnostic logics is executable or not based on the diagnostic object information. The generation unit generates a diagnostic result including information relating to whether the diagnostic logics determined by the determination unit are executable or not. The output unit outputs the diagnostic result.

Methods and systems are provided for managing environmental conditions and energy usage associated with a site. One exemplary method of regulating an environment condition at a site involves a server receiving environmental measurement data from a monitoring system at the site via a network, determining an action for an electrical appliance at the site based at least in part on the environmental measurement data and one or more monitoring rules associated with the site, and providing an indication of the action to an actuator for the electrical appliance.

A portable handheld device pairs with a first building control device, to form a first wireless connection. The portable handheld device receives information about a second building control device via the first wireless connection, at least some of the information is received by the first building control device from the second building control device over a building control network before the first building control device provides at least some of the received information to the portable handheld device via the first wireless connection. The portable handheld device sends one or more messages to the first building control device via the first wireless connection, wherein the one or more messages cause the first building control device to communicate with the second building control device via the building control network to initiate a commissioning and/or maintenance process of the second building control device.

Disclosed is a system including one or more smart utilities, and a personal smart device configured to: communicate with the one or more smart utilities over one or more networks, instruct the one or more smart utilities to return self-identifying information, and instruct one or more of the one or more smart utilities, individually or as a subgroup, to activate an identifying beacon.
