Device and Method for Controlling Bluetooth Enabled Occupancy Sensors

Content Provider	The Lens
Abstract	Device and method for controlling Bluetooth™ enabled occupancy sensors. One example system includes a transceiver, a display, and an electronic processor. The electronic processor is configured to receive from an occupancy sensor, a plurality of occupancy data points and an occupancy threshold, and to generate a graphical representation based on the data points and the threshold. The graphical representation includes a first line providing an indication of the values of the plurality of the occupancy data points relative to the occupancy threshold over time. The electronic processor is configured to present the graphical representation on the display. The electronic processor is configured to receive a user input indicating an updated occupancy sensing value, generate, based on the graphical representation and the updated occupancy sensing value, an updated graphical representation, present, on the display, the updated graphical representation, and transmit, to the occupancy sensor, the updated occupancy sensing value.

Claim	A system comprising: a transceiver; an input/output interface; a display; and an electronic processor, communicatively coupled to the transceiver, the display, and input/output interface; wherein the electronic processor is configured to receive, via the transceiver, from an occupancy sensor, an occupancy threshold; generate a graphical representation based on the occupancy threshold, the graphical representation including a first line providing an indication of a plurality of values relative to the Occupancy threshold over time; present the graphical representation on the display; receive, via the input/output interface, a user input indicating an updated occupancy sensing value; generate, based on the graphical representation and the updated occupancy sensing value, an updated graphical representation; present, on the display, the updated graphical representation; and transmit, via the transceiver to the occupancy sensor, the updated occupancy sensing value. The system of claim 1 , wherein the electronic processor is further configured to receive a first occupancy event based on the occupancy threshold when a subset of a plurality of data points exceeds the occupancy threshold; wherein the graphical representation is further based on the first occupancy event, and the graphical representation includes a second line providing an indication of the first occupancy event. The system of claim 2 , wherein the electronic processor is further configured to determine, based on the first occupancy event, an occupancy timer; wherein the graphical representation is further based on the occupancy timer, and the graphical representation includes a third line providing an indication of the occupancy timer. The system of claim 3 , wherein the electronic processor is further configured to receive a second occupancy event based on the occupancy threshold when a second subset of the plurality of data points exceeds the occupancy threshold; wherein the occupancy timer is further based on the second occupancy event. The system of claim 1 , wherein the updated occupancy sensing value is an updated value for the occupancy threshold value. The system of claim 3 , wherein the updated occupancy sensing value is an updated value for the occupancy timer value. The system of claim 1 , wherein the display is a touch screen display and the user input is received via the touch screen display. The system of claim 1 , wherein the transceiver is a transceiver of one selected from the group consisting of a smart telephone, a smart watch, a tablet computer, and a laptop computer. A method comprising: receiving, from an occupancy sensor, an occupancy threshold; receiving, from the occupancy sensor, a first occupancy event based on the occupancy threshold when a subset of data points exceeds the occupancy threshold; determining, with an electronic processor, based on the first occupancy event, an occupancy timer; generating a graphical representation based on the occupancy threshold, the first occupancy event, and the occupancy timer, the graphical representation including a first line providing an indication of a plurality of values relative to the occupancy threshold over time, a second line providing an indication of the first occupancy event, and a third line providing an indication of the occupancy timer; presenting the graphical representation on a display communicatively coupled to the electronic processor; receiving a user input indicating an updated occupancy sensing value; generating, based on the graphical representation and the updated occupancy sensing value, an updated graphical representation; presenting, on the display, the updated graphical representation; and transmitting, to the occupancy sensor, the updated occupancy sensing value. The method of claim 9 , further comprising: receiving a second occupancy event based on the occupancy threshold when a second subset of data points exceeds the occupancy threshold; wherein the occupancy timer is further based on the second occupancy event. The method of claim 9 , wherein receiving a user input indicating an updated value for the occupancy sensing value includes receiving an updated occupancy threshold value. The method of claim 9 , wherein receiving a user input indicating an updated occupancy sensing value includes receiving an updated value for the occupancy timer value. The method of claim 9 , wherein the steps of receiving a plurality of occupancy data points, receiving a first occupancy event, and transmitting the updated occupancy sensing value are performed using one selected from the group consisting of a smart telephone, a smart watch, a tablet computer, and a laptop computer. The method of claim 9 , wherein presenting the graphical representation on a display includes presenting the graphical representation on a touch screen display, and receiving a user input includes receiving a user input via the touch screen display. A non-transitory computer-readable medium including instructions executable by an electronic processor to perform a set of functions, the set of functions comprising: receiving, from an occupancy sensor, an occupancy threshold; receiving, from the occupancy sensor, a first occupancy event based on the occupancy threshold when a subset of data points exceeds the occupancy threshold; determining, based on the first occupancy event, an occupancy timer; generating a graphical representation based on the occupancy threshold, the first occupancy event, and the occupancy timer, the graphical representation including a first line providing an indication of a plurality of values relative to the occupancy threshold over time, a second line providing an indication of the first occupancy event, and a third line providing an indication of the occupancy timer; presenting the graphical representation on a display communicatively coupled to the electronic processor; receiving a user input indicating an updated occupancy sensing value; generating, based on the graphical representation and the updated occupancy sensing value, an updated graphical representation; presenting, on the display, the updated graphical representation; and transmitting, to the occupancy sensor, the updated occupancy sensing value.
