Smart gateway devices, systems and methods for providing communication between HVAC system networks

A method for providing virtual devices on a first network associated with a building management system (BMS), the method comprising:

• receiving a new virtual device corresponding to one or more physical devices or systems;
• providing a mapping between the new virtual device and the one or more physical devices or systems, one or more data points of the new virtual device corresponding to one or more data points of the one or more physical devices or systems;
• receiving data values for the one or more data points of the one or more physical devices or systems;
• and
• updating the one or more data points of the new virtual device with the data values for the one or more data points of the one or more physical devices or systems, the virtual device configured to represent the one or more physical devices or systems on the first network.

One or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:

• receiving a new virtual device on a first network associated with a building management system (BMS), the new virtual device corresponding to one or more non-BMS devices or systems;
• providing a mapping between the new virtual device and the one or more non-BMS devices or systems, one or more data points of the new virtual device corresponding to one or more data points of the one or more non-BMS devices or systems;
• receiving data values for the one or more data points of the one or more non-BMS devices or systems;
• and
• updating the one or more data points of the new virtual device with the data values for the one or more data points of the one or more non-BMS devices or systems, the virtual device configured to represent the one or more non-BMS devices or systems on the first network.

A device in communication with a first network associated with a building management system (BMS), the device comprising:

• one or more processing circuits configured to:
• discover one or more new physical devices or systems and create a new virtual device corresponding to the new one or more physical devices or systems using a type and address;
• detect one or more updated physical devices or systems and update device data for an existing virtual device for the one or more updated physical devices or systems;
• or
• detect a device status update for one or more existing physical devices or systems and update device status for an existing virtual device for the one or more existing physical devices or systems.
