Abstract: A model predictive maintenance (MPM) system for building equipment includes one or more processing circuits including one or more processors and memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations. The operations include obtaining one or more performance indicators for the building equipment and determining whether a trigger condition has been satisfied based on the one or more performance indicators. The operations include triggering a model predictive maintenance process to generate a maintenance schedule for the building equipment in response to determining that the trigger condition has been satisfied. The operations include initiating a maintenance activity for the building equipment in accordance with the maintenance schedule.

Abstract: A building management system (BMS) includes building equipment, an eventseries generator, and a storage interface. The building equipment are configured to generate a plurality of data samples. Each of the data samples includes a data value and a timestamp. The eventseries generator is configured to assign a sample state to each data sample based on the data value of the data sample and generate one or more events based on the timestamp of each data sample and the sample state assigned to each data sample. Each of the events includes a start time, an end time, and an event state. The eventseries generator is configured to generate an eventseries including the one or more generated events. The storage interface is configured to store the eventseries in an eventseries database.

Abstract: A building system includes one or more storage devices having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to receive an unstructured user question from a user device of a user and query a graph database based on the unstructured user question to extract context associated with the unstructured user question from contextual information of a building stored by the graph database, wherein the graph database stores the contextual information of the building through nodes and edges between the nodes, wherein the nodes represent equipment, spaces, people, and events associated building and the edges represent relationships between the equipment, spaces, people, and events. The instructions further cause the one or more processors to retrieve data from one or more data sources based on the context and compose a presentation based on the retrieved data.

Abstract: A heating, ventilation, and/or air conditioning (HVAC) system includes a compressor, a fan, an inverter configured to drive operation of the compressor, and a controller communicatively coupled to the fan and the inverter. The controller includes a tangible, non-transitory, computer-readable medium with computer-executable instructions that, when executed by processor circuitry, are configured to cause the processor circuitry to determine an operating parameter of the fan in response to an interruption in receiving communication signals from the inverter and operate the fan based on the operating parameter during the interruption.

Abstract: A web services platform includes a data collector and a timeseries service. The data collector is configured to collect feedback samples provided by one or more sensors of a building management system and generate one or more feedback timeseries including a plurality of the feedback samples. The timeseries service is configured to identify a feedback control workflow that uses the feedback timeseries as an input and defines one or more processing operations to be applied to the feedback samples of the feedback timeseries, perform the one or more processing operations defined by the feedback control workflow to generate a control signal timeseries including a set of control signal samples, and provide a control signal including at least one of the control signal samples or the control signal timeseries as an output to controllable building equipment of the building management system that operate using the control signal as an input.
