20100142535 | Building Control System - A method of operating a building control system includes installing a plurality of network devices to a communications network. Each of the plurality of network devices performs a device operation. The method also includes assigning an identifier to each of the plurality of network devices. The identifier is based on the device operation and a device location. The method further includes communicating information and coordinating operations automatically among the plurality of network devices based on the identifier. | 06-10-2010 |
20100070055 | CONTROL OF CONCEPT ZONES - There is provided a method, apparatus and computer program product for controlling parameters of objects in a building control system, the method comprising receiving input from at least one of the objects, wherein the at least one object is associated with a first subset of objects; selecting at least one parameter, wherein the at least one parameter depends on the input; selecting a second subset of objects from the objects, wherein the objects of the second subset are selected based on the at least one selected parameter; and performing a first action on objects in the second subset of objects. | 03-18-2010 |
20100049335 | DATA STRUCTURE & ASSOCIATED METHOD FOR AUTOMATION CONTROL SYSTEM MANAGEMENT - A data structure comprising a link to a set of binding points enabling connection to a building control system and a model of said automation control system is disclosed. The model comprises a plurality of virtual components arranged in a structure associated with functions of said automation control system. Each virtual component is assigned a set of properties for viewing a representation of said virtual component. Each set of properties comprises a first sub-set of properties being linked to said binding points such that actual values for corresponding actual component are provided to said virtual component, and a second sub-set of properties for how said representation of said virtual component is to be viewed with respect to said actual values. Each property of said second sub-set of properties selectably comprises a locally or a globally assigned parameter. An automation system management tool utilising the data structure, and an automation control system comprising the tool are disclosed. Further, a method and a computer program implementing the method, utilising the data structure are disclosed. | 02-25-2010 |
20090322509 | Assignment of Alarms - There is provided a method for monitoring a building control device, the method comprising associating the building control device with an event; storing the event and at least one parameter of the building control device in a database, wherein the database is operatively connected to a plurality of operator devices, and wherein the at least one parameter at least pertains to defining the event to be one from the group of unassigned, pending, or assigned by the plurality of operator devices; traversing, by at least a first of the plurality of operator devices, the database subject to the at least one parameter. | 12-31-2009 |

20090164925 | Method for generating documentation for a building control system - A method for generating documentation for a building control system represented by contents in a database, the method comprising the steps of: creating a plurality of objects that form contents in the database, assigning to each object properties representative of a building control object, assigning textual information to the objects, creating connections between the objects, and automatically generating the documentation by traversing the objects in the database and collecting data pertaining to the objects in the database, and inserting the data in a documentation object. | 06-25-2009 |
20090030533 | Products, Device, and System for Controlling - A product for controlling physical properties comprising data processing means with inputs and outputs is disclosed. The product has approved bounds of behaviour. At least one of said outputs comprises at least one control signal disposed to be output by said product, and said data processing means comprises a processing control means; and a software comprising at least one application, and having a certificate uniquely associated to said at least one application. The processing control means further comprises means for confirming said at least one application by means for verifying said certificate, and means for checking functions of the application and the data processing means in co-operation such that said at least one control signal does not violate the approved bounds of behaviour of the product. A device and system comprising the product are also disclosed. | 01-29-2009 |
