A system and approach having a display that shows a dashboard of smart buttons or tiles. The smart buttons or tiles may be situated in a matrix-like or other arrangement on the dashboard. The display may be customized. A smart button or tile may be operated like a standard button but conveniently pull summary information about a particular area of, for instance, a building controls system, for a user. The arrangement may permit the user to view the health of the whole system at a glance and permit the user a shortcut to see details of the particular area of the system quickly.

Dashboard and button/tile system for an interface

A system and approach for providing information about a heating, ventilation and air conditioning system. A screen of the system on a display may have a portion revealing a perspective with a view of components such as cooling and heating coils, fans, dampers, sensors, and so forth. Data modules may be shown proximate to the components on the screen and indicate certain parameters about them. As second portion of the screen may show control and information modules related to items such as temperature and pressure control, and operating mode. The screen may also reveal relationships among sub-systems, applications, zones, alarms, and other items.

HVAC information display system

An HVAC system may include a VAV box including a damper movable between a first damper position and a second damper position and an HVAC controller that is mounted remotely from the VAV box. The HVAC controller may be configured to control the VAV box in accordance with a temperature set point entered into the HVAC controller and may be programmed with a test and balance procedure. In some cases, the HVAC controller may also be programmed with functionality that facilitates an installer or other technician in configuring and/or reconfiguring the VAV box. This may include providing a user interface that supports a test and balance procedure of the VAV box. Such functionality may be user-accessible via the user interface of the HVAC controller, and in some cases, may be used to drive the damper of the VAV box between various damper positions as well as perform other functionality.

HVAC controller for a variable air volume (VAV) box

An HVAC controller configured to control a VAV box including a damper may include a temperature sensor that is configured to sense a temperature proximate the HVAC controller and a touch screen user interface that is configured to display the sensed temperature and to enable a user to input a temperature set point. A controller may be operatively coupled to the touch screen user interface and the temperature sensor and may be configured to regulate operation of the VAV box in accordance with the sensed temperature and the temperature set point. The HVAC controller may be programmed with a test and balance procedure that is user-accessible via the touch screen user interface.
