    Abstract: Systems and methods for guided installation of building equipment are provided. A request for a wiring diagram for wiring a first piece of building equipment to a second piece of building equipment is received from a user device. One or more first wiring configurations associated with the first piece of building equipment and one or more second wiring configurations associated with the second piece of building equipment are identified. Based on the one or more first wiring configurations and the one or more second wiring configurations, an equipment-specific wiring configuration for wiring the first piece of building equipment to the second piece of building equipment is automatically selected. A graphical user interface including a wiring diagram illustrating the equipment-specific wiring configuration is provided to the user device.

    Abstract: A sensor device or thermostat for use in a building zone including a number of sensor components, each sensor component configured to sense an environmental condition. The sensor device or thermostat further including a display including a first number of fixed segment icons, each fixed segment icon associated with one of the sensors. The display further including a first number of fixed segment numerals, each numeral associated with one of the fixed segment icons to indicate a value associated with a sensor component, a second number of fixed segment numerals, the second number of fixed segment numerals having a larger size than the first number of fixed segment numerals. The sensor device or thermostat further including a control circuit communicably coupled to the sensor components and the display, wherein the control circuit is structured to cause the second number of fixed segment numerals to display a value associated with one of the number of sensor components.

    Abstract: A controller for a plurality of heating, ventilation, or air conditioning (HVAC) devices includes a processing circuit that includes one or more processors and memory. The controller detects a change in condition that affects an operating status of a first HVAC device of the plurality of HVAC devices. The controller uses schematic relationships between the plurality of HVAC devices to determine a reduced subset of the plurality of HVAC devices for which operating parameters are to be generated based on the operating status of the first HVAC device. The controller generates operating parameters for the reduced subset of the plurality of HVAC devices and operates the plurality of HVAC devices using the operating parameters.

    Abstract: A Building Management System (BMS) includes a plurality of building subsystems and communications interface. The building subsystems include device(s) for controlling aspect(s) of the building subsystem. The communications interface receives commands from a cloud-based controller and a local client device. The commands from the cloud-based controller and local client device are structured to modify setting(s) for a device of the building subsystems. A BMS controller receives, via the communications interface from the cloud-based controller, a command for modifying a setting of a device for a first building subsystem. The BMS controller identifies a local setting of the device provided by the local client device. The BMS controller identifies a priority of the command from the cloud-based controller in relation to a priority of the local setting. The BMS controller controls the device based on the respective priorities.
