Smart replay in management systems

A non-transitory computer-readable medium encoded with executable instructions that, when executed, causes at least one processor to run in a data processing system of a management system, perform building management system functions, and provide a graphical user interface, by:

• receiving replay criteria;
• identifying any replay devices, replay sensors, replay actuators, and replay functions corresponding to the replay criteria;
• identifying a replay time period corresponding to the replay criteria;
• gathering replay data for the identified replay devices, replay sensors, replay actuators, or replay functions corresponding to the replay criteria that was generated during the replay time period, wherein the replay data is gathered in response to detecting a room temperature exceeding a set point;
• and
• displaying the replay in the graphical user interface according to the replay data.

A building management system comprising a data processing system, and a plurality of devices, sensors, and actuators, wherein the data processing system includes a graphical user interface and executes a system manager application to perform building management system functions and to:

• receive replay criteria;
• identify any replay devices, replay sensors, replay actuators, and replay functions corresponding to the replay criteria;
• identify a replay time period corresponding to the replay criteria;
• gather replay data for the identified replay devices, replay sensors, replay actuators, or replay functions corresponding to the replay criteria that was generated during the replay time period, wherein the replay data is gathered in response to detecting a room temperature exceeding a set point;
• and
• display the replay in the graphical user interface according to the replay data.
