Abstract: In some examples, a system controls a set of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) components in order to regulate one or more parameters of a building. The system includes an HVAC controller device including a dial and a touch screen display. Additionally, the system includes an external server configured to communicate with the HVAC controller via a communication link. The external server is configured to receive data which indicates a set of information from one or more devices. Additionally, the external server is configured to generate, based on the set of information and a set of screen templates stored in a memory of the external server, a screen for display by the touch screen display without updating firmware of the HVAC controller device, and output, to the HVAC controller device, the screen for display by the touch screen display.

Abstract: The occupancy status of a building space may be determined by sensing an indication of motion in the building space, in response to sensing the indication of motion in the building space, starting an occupied time period having a length during which the building space is indicated as being occupied, determining a measure related to a number of subsequent sensed indications of motion in the building space during the occupied time period, and selectively adjusting the length of the occupied time period based on the measure related to the number of subsequent sensed indications of motion in the building space during the occupied time period.
