A method of controlling smart windows with dynamic tenancy, performed by a control system is provided. The method includes coupling a control system having a plurality of smart windows each having one or more electrochromic devices, to a plurality of remote devices, and managing, in the control system, configurable smart window groups each having in membership one or more of the plurality of smart windows. The method includes managing, in the control system, configurable user groups each having in membership one or more of a plurality of users in association with the smart window groups, and controlling transmissivity of the electrochromic devices of the plurality of smart windows in accordance with the configurable smart window groups, the configurable user groups and the plurality of remote devices.

Dynamic tenancy

A method includes receiving data from components of a smart window system and, responsive to determining that a first portion of the data corresponds to a first identifier, storing the first portion of the data in association with the first identifier. The method further includes receiving, via a graphical user interface (GUI) presented on a user device, a view request and, responsive to determining that the view request corresponds to the first identifier, retrieving the first portion of the data. The method further includes causing the GUI to be modified to display the first portion of the data and, responsive to user interaction with the GUI that was modified based on the view request, receiving, via the GUI presented on the user device, a change request to implement a change associated with electrochromic windows. The method includes causing a first component to implement the change associated with the electrochromic windows.

Remote management of on-site smart window activities and scheduler of smart window events

A method includes identifying components of a smart window system. The components include electrochromic devices, drivers, and one or more gateways. Each of the drivers is to control a corresponding electrochromic device and each of the drivers is to receive instructions from a server device via a corresponding gateway. The method further includes determining physical linking, network linking, and application linking of the smart window system. The method further includes displaying, via a graphical user interface (GUI), the components of the smart window system, the physical linking, the network linking, and the application linking. The method further includes determining a first component of the plurality of components is to be replaced by a new component, causing the new component to be configured based on configurations of the first component, and updating the GUI based on the new component that has been configured based on the configurations of the first component.
