Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If existing visualization tools are used for building control systems, then data can be displayed, but the tools are difficult to set up and lack intuitiveness, making it challenging to quickly construct visualizations of large dimension buildings
Solution Approach 1:
The system segments the building into hierarchical zones (buildings, floors, rooms, devices) that can be independently configured and visualized. This allows users to construct visualizations incrementally by adding zones rather than configuring entire building systems at once, reducing setup complexity and improving ease of operation.
Solution Approach 2:
The dashboard framework provides universal templates and pre-configured visualization components that can be applied across different building types and zones. These multi-functional templates reduce setup time by eliminating the need to create custom visualizations from scratch for each new building or zone.
2Productivity
If customized smart gadgets with built-in control system intelligence are implemented, then automatic point mapping and data visualization improve, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
Smart gadgets automatically perform point mapping by detecting and associating with relevant control system points based on their context and configuration. This self-service capability eliminates the need for manual point-by-point configuration, significantly improving setup speed while the automation manages the underlying complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary configuration actions by pre-mapping points and pre-configuring visualization parameters when zones are created or when gadgets are added. This advance preparation reduces the apparent complexity for users during operation, as much of the complex setup work has already been completed automatically.
