摘要： An adapter device and/or a thermostat device for use during installation and testing of in-floor heating systems. The adapter device allows for temporary electrical interconnection between a mat and an AC power source, and includes at least one switch configured to actuate based on a user-supplied force (e.g., a finger press) to temporarily electrically couple the mat to an AC power source. The at least one switch is further configured to automatically de-actuate in the absence of the user-supplied force to electrically decouple the mat from the AC power source. The thermostat device includes at least one integrated power measurement circuit for testing and diagnostics of an in-floor heating system.

摘要： The present invention provides systems and methods for providing cross-device native functionality for a native app. More specifically, the invention is directed to a JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) data exchange format for use with a native app running on a user's mobile device, wherein the exchange format is configured to improve user experience and interaction with the app. The present invention may be particularly useful in a mobile-based crowdsourcing platform in which data is continually exchanged between remote user devices and a cloud-based service for collecting and managing user-driven data based on user interaction with native apps on their devices.

摘要： Method and environment controller using a neural network for bypassing a legacy environment control software module. The environment controller receives at least one environmental characteristic value and determines a plurality of input variables. At least one of the plurality of input variables is based on one among the at least one environmental characteristic value. The environment controller transmits the plurality of input variables to an inference server executing a neural network inference engine. The environment controller receives at least one inferred output variable from the inference server. The environment controller uses the at least one inferred output variable received from the inference server in place of at least one output variable calculated by the legacy environment control software module based on the plurality of input variables. The environment controller may prevent the execution of the legacy software module or overwrite the output variable(s) calculated by the legacy software module.

摘要： A system and approach for verifying and validating a room condition and its behavior in a critical environment. The system and approach may be a room controller built on top of a Niagara™ framework or launched from a Niagara workbench, and leverages extensible of Niagara. The system and approach may be web-based and used to test and verify the room condition per preset conditions. The system may have steps or tabs. They may incorporate screens for a create/open task, select test zone, read flow, hood/booster, T-stat set-up or temperature lever set-up, visual checks, and a report. One may create a new task and edit any existing task on the controller. One may move from task to task in either direction or go directly to the report of a completed task.

摘要： A system for controlling a plurality of appliances is disclosed. The appliances comprise a plurality of controllers in communication with a mobile device. Each of the controllers is configured to receive an instruction from the mobile device corresponding to a selected mode of a plurality of modes and apply the selected mode among the plurality of appliances as a selected global setting of a plurality of available global settings. The controller is further operable to activate an appliance specific control routine for each of the plurality of appliances based on the selected global setting and control each appliance based on the appliance specific control routine. The appliance specific control routine comprises a plurality of controls configured control an operation of each of the appliances causing the operation to conform to the selected mode.

摘要： A thermostat configuration system includes a first thermostat having a processor, a transceiver, a storage area and a control button. The processor generates configuration data for the first thermostat and stores the configuration data in the storage area of the first thermostat. The processor then causes the configuration data to be transmitted to multiple target devices using the transmitter, including at least a second thermostat.

摘要： An area abnormality detecting system includes multiple apparatuses, multiple sensors and a detecting server. The system is adopted in a space, which is segmented into several blocks with same size. Multiple areas of the space are defined by the blocks separately. The apparatuses are respectively corresponding to each area for providing environmental improving services. The sensors are respectively corresponding to each area for sensing indoor environment of each area. After an abnormality occurs, the detecting server determines an abnormal area and an occurring time corresponding to the abnormality, and obtains apparatus parameters of apparatuses corresponding to the abnormal area that are recorded at the occurring time, so as to determine the occurring reason for the abnormality based on the apparatus parameters.
