Embodiment Construction

[0022] Building Management Systems and HVAC Systems

[0023] now refer to Figure 1-4 , illustrates an exemplary building management system (BMS) and HVAC system according to an exemplary embodiment, in which the systems and methods of the present disclosure may be implemented. special reference figure 1 , shows a perspective view of the building 10 . Building 10 is served by a BMS. In general, a BMS is a system of devices configured to control, monitor and manage equipment in or around a building or building area. A BMS may include, for example, an HVAC system, a security system, a lighting system, a fire alarm system, any other system capable of managing building functions or devices, or any combination thereof.

[0024] The BMS serving the building 10 includes the HVAC system 100 . HVAC system 100 may include a plurality of HVAC devices (eg, heaters, coolers, air moving units, pumps, fans, thermal energy storage, etc.) configured to provide heating, cooling, ventilatio...

Abstract

A smart gateway device for providing communications between multiple networks associated with a building management system (BMS). The device includes a first network interface circuit in communicationwith a first network associated with a building management system (BMS). The device further includes a second network interface circuit in communication with a second network associated with a subsystem of the BMS, wherein the second network is not compatible with the first network. The second network interface circuit is configured to detect a physical device associated with the second network,and to receive a data packet associated with the physical device. The data packet is transmitted to the first network interface circuit. The first network interface circuit is configured to receive the data packet and to generate a virtual device based on the received data packet. The virtual device is configured to represent the physical device on the first network.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure generally relates to building management systems. The present disclosure relates more particularly to systems and methods for presenting data and changes to data associated with a building management system (BMS). Background technique [0002] A building management system (BMS) is generally a system of devices configured to control, monitor and manage equipment in or around a building or building area. A BMS may include a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system, a security system, a lighting system, a fire alarm system, another system capable of managing building functions or devices, or any combination thereof. A BMS device may be installed in any environment (eg, an indoor area or an outdoor area), and the environment may include any number of buildings, spaces, zones, rooms, or areas. A BMS may include various devices (eg, HVAC devices, controllers, chillers, fans, sensors, etc.) configured to facilitate mon...
