EcoStruxure™ Building Operation Commercial Real Estate

Demo Script
EBO2023 Rev1.0

Overview
These demo scripts provide instruction and messages to accompany the latest EcoStruxure Building Operation demo database.

This document provides scripts for the Commercial Real Estate view of EcoStruxure Building Operation. Please refer to the other scripts available on
Exchange for other specialised segments

There are two distinct scripts available. Both are designed to use the online global demo database:

The first and longest script is entitled the “Primary Demo Outline and Script – Desktop Browser”. This part of the demo is designed to be run from a
browser that is running on a PC at full screen. The demo focuses on software to illustrate the integration functionality and capabilities EcoStruxure
Building delivers. It is not intended to showcase connected product functionality nor the deployment tools for system integrators aimed at maximizing
engineering efficiency. (Information on these offers can be found on The Exchange.) As such, the demo primarily focuses on three personas: real estate
owners, tenants/users and facility managers. We suggest you keep the needs of the personas noted in orange below in mind during your
demonstration:

Confidential Property of Schneider Electric | Page 1

 The second script is called “Dashboard Demo Outline and Script – Desktop Browser / Device”. This demo presents the dashboard feature. This script
provides a very upbeat presentation of dashboards that is complemented by the screens that you can walk through. These screens are also tied into
the primary demo and can be referenced within that, should you so choose. If the Dashboard Demo is run from a desktop browser, then you should
make sure that you know how to modify the browser in order to allow it to present in the mode of device (iPhone, iPad, etc.). (In Chrome this can be
accomplished by going to More tools/Developer tools and then select the “Toggle device toolbar” at the upper left of the Developer tools window.)

The demos can be presented from browsers that are being run from any device. If the browser is on a desktop, this will provide the greatest amount
of real estate and can easily impart all the pieces and parts of the demo. Many desktop browsers also allow you to simulate different devices and
provide visibility into the experience when viewing on different size devices. When presenting the demo from a desktop, regardless of whether you
are using the full screen presentation or a device simulation, you still have a mouse; it will not give you any preview of what the experience may be
when presenting on a separate device. We recommend that you experiment to get the feel for whatever device that you are using. Some items to be
aware of:

1. If you are on a mobile device, be careful when you are “pinching” or “zooming”. When the display is of a panel with a graphic in the work
area, you can get strange behavior if you are not careful to pinch or zoom the graphic in the work area rather than the entire browser
window.
2. Due to the nature of mobile viewing, it is recommended to save a shortcut of the demo web link on to your phone home screen. Below are
the steps to show this on IOS:

Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Step 4

What to Say
Today I’d like to show you the power of Schneider Electric's
EcoStruxure™ Building solution. It enables customers like you
to get a comprehensive view of your building environments
by using EcoStruxure Building Operation to bring together
systems for HVAC, access control, power management,
lighting and many more on a common platform to maximize
building comfort and efficiency. EcoStruxure Building
Operation gives facility managers, occupants and building
owners all the tools they need to manage, monitor and
operate their buildings. Let me show you how.
You can quickly access EcoStruxure Building Operation
through its easy-to-use WebStation interface. Here’s a
workspace for the owner that shows all the buildings in his
real estate portfolio through a simple custom workspace. Our
new Enterprise Central capability enables the system to easily
scale from the smallest building to the largest global
enterprise campuses. An owner can now dive in from the
multi-site overview to more detailed insights of a specific
building. As you can see, I have an alarm condition in my
XXXXX location. I’m going to ask my local facility manager
there to take a closer look.
 Click on the Security Reader
button on the bottom left of the
screen.
Slide the Building Intruder switch
to the unset position.
Close the Security Reader tab.
Point out the gold-colored overlay
disappears now that the Intruder
Alarm is disabled.
Point out the changes in the left-
hand panel as the building moves
into Occupied mode.
Point out the alarms in the alarm
banner.
Hover over a floor on the building
and click on it to go to a floor plan
overview.
Confidential Property of Schneider Electric | Page 8
The facility manager is just starting his/her day and will enter
the office space by swiping a badge reader connected to
EcoStruxure Security Expert. Security Expert unifies the entire
security infrastructure into a single intelligent end-to-end
solution to drive efficiency and safety.
We can see the local weather data that is brought in via a
web service connection to a global weather service
Before swiping, I can tell the building is in its secure state by
the gold-colored overlay on the building graphic and the fact
that the systems are all in the overnight, unoccupied mode.
After swiping the ‘intruder alarm’ disabled, the entire system
is waking up into the programmed ‘occupied’ mode – the
HVAC, power and lighting automatically adjust as we start the
business day.
The facility manager can see that Building Operation has
raised several alarms he needs to address. He’ll click into the
office to quickly diagnose the issue.
 Ensure the Comfort Legend on
the top left-hand side of the floor
plan is expanded.
Then Click on the AHU button
Point out the critical alarm’s
indicators on the left-hand side.

Point out the motion graphics
that clearly visualize the unit
running.
Point out that the alarms are now
cleared.
Confidential Property of Schneider Electric | Page 9
Powerful graphics capabilities allow fast visual assessment of
the building and its systems.
You can easily see with these colored temperature overlays
on the floorplan that the Main Office is too hot.
You can also see there’s some alarms in the alarm banner and
they are from the air handling unit serving this floor.
Let’s check on the air handler.
Powerful alarming functionality and graphics deliver fast
diagnosis and response to any issues that arise that could
affect comfort.
For instance, I can now clearly see the source of the critical
alarm from AHU graphic is a tripped circuit breaker. The
facility manager can send staff to inspect the unit and reset
the breaker.
I’ll simulate resetting the breaker and the AHU.
With that addressed, EcoStruxure Building Operation updates
the graphics to make it evident that the AHU is operating
again. Though I noticed the AHU needs some maintenance on
the panel filters.
 Return to the floor plan by
clicking the Floorplan button in
the left-hand menu.
Point out that the temperature
overlay has been cleared with the
office back to normal
temperature range.
Click on ‘Thermal Energy’ in the
left menu bar
Click on Building Overview within
Thermal Energy
Confidential Property of Schneider Electric | Page 10
Let’s return to the floorplan view to make sure that the office
is back to normal.
This example illustrates how EcoStruxure Building Operation
delivers the information and control that a facility manager
needs to quickly identify, diagnose and respond to the needs
of his building and its occupants.
Now that we have the air handler issue resolved, let’s see the
other tools facility managers have at their disposal to manage
their building.
The Thermal Energy is typically 40% of a buildings energy
usage but we actually often lack the information of where
this energy is being used. With the latest generation of smart
actuators, SpaceLogic SP90, we gather the information into
the thermal energy usage at a very granular level.
This now allows us to troubleshoot much further and identify
zones that high users of energy, empowering us with the
information to further investigate why this may be, if we
have inappropriate comfort settings or if we have an
insulation breakdown from a window stuck open.
Knowing the thermal energy usage room by room, floor by
floor enables us to really target energy savings and
proportion energy costs in a fair manner.
But it is not just reading the energy usage, but in controlling
the energy usage real time.
 Click on Fan Coil Unit
Click on the Schedules Button in
the left-hand menu.
Double click on the
Administration-Occupancy
Schedule.
You can double click on one of
the blue special events to show
how special events can be
individually named.
Confidential Property of Schneider Electric | Page 11
If we zoom in at the equipment level, we can see the
information EcoStruxure Building Operation gathers from the
smart actuators, which includes both the flow and return
temperatures that help the Facility manager understand
operational efficiency, but also the thermal power/energy
consumption that the tenant will also have a very keen
interest in too.
We can delve further into the energy control possible with
this valve, including the ability to cap energy consumption
when we look further into the configuration settings – this
will be detailed when we come to looking at the fan coil units
in the meeting rooms.
In addition to powerful alarm management and monitoring,
EcoStruxure Building Operation provides comprehensive
scheduling capabilities that enable the automation of regular
operations, holidays, evening shifts and other periods the
building requires to ensure smooth operation around the
clock. Special events can be included in the schedule with
descriptive names to indicate the event.
 Click on the Trends button in the
left-hand menu and select the
trend chart button.
Hover over the chart lines to
show tool tips
In the left-hand menu click on the
Floor Plan button.
Confidential Property of Schneider Electric | Page 12
EcoStruxure Building Operation can also capture system
performance using trend logs and charts, which provide
additional insights on the behavior of the building over time.
Combined with alarming, trends can help you understand
system performance in the building as well as proactively
help to identify issues before they result in costly outages.
Trend logs, charts and graphics can be combined to form
custom dashboards that meet the varying needs of the
groups of people responsible for safe and profitable building
operation. Using the built-in tool tip, it’s very easy to see
what each of the lines represents.
So now that we have seen some of the tools for the facility
manager, let’s look at how EcoStruxure Building Operation
can improve the comfort and productivity of the people in
the building every day.

This space is serviced by a fan coil unit with the new
SpaceLogic SP90 Actuators driving our pressure independent
line of control valves. They are top of the line and when they
were put into the system we also had special diagnostic
screens added to help us trouble shoot any issues that might
arise.
With this SP90 installation we are monitoring the flow and
return temperatures using the sensors connected into the
actuator.
We can see the valve is partially open and we have a good
temperature drop across the coil, so everything seems to be
working OK.
By clipping on one of the SP90 valve actuators we show the
widget that used in configuring and commissioning the
actuator, this widget enables advanced settings to be seen
and adjusted.
The actuator can gather and communicate operational data
of the product as well as the equipment it controls. It can
even let us adjust the flow balancing remotely to enable
further advances in energy efficiency targets or
troubleshooting in the event of comfort complaints
In the monitoring section of the widget, we can review the
power limitation settings, these settings allow us to cap peak
energy usage which can be very effective at ensuring energy
consumption is controlled.
In the Diagnose section we see an alarm was present during
closing, this is probably the reason behind the complaint, we
should ensure the maintenance check the filters as we have
been having a few of these alarms of late.

Explain the architecture of CRS
Whilst we are looking at the meeting rooms, we can utilise
our insight sensors to retrieve valuable environment data
from the spaces that we can use in our building management
system.
Here you can see we have installed insight sensors in our
meeting rooms and main office. These devices provide us
with people counting, lighting level, sound level,
temperature, and humidity all from a single device. This
allows us to quickly understand how the spaces are being
used. We can then use this presence detection to trigger our
building management system, such as our lighting on and off.
We can see that the people count from the sensor can be
mapped against spaces graphically so we can quickly
understand utilization in these spaces and compare this
against the environment data. As these numbers increase, we
can see the spaces change. Here, the sound and temperature
levels increase as more occupants enter the space.
 Click on Environment Dashboard We can leverage our dashboarding feature to also see how
these spaces have been performing over time. Here we can
see in a different view the current conditions of 4 spaces we
have in the building. We have combined the people count
value to be able to get a total count across the zone.

Click on one of the graphic tiles: As we go into each space, we can retrieve the data from the
• CEO Office insight sensor.
• Main Office
• Meeting Room 1 We can use the widgets to quickly compare occupancy
• Meeting Room 2 against lighting and sound level to see if our building
management system is operating efficiently.

In the screen, we have also combined this with our

SpaceLogic environmental sensor to retrieve air quality
information so we can get a holistic view of the space to
understand if the space will be comfortable for occupants.

Click on Chart We can dive deeper into the system and start analysing our
insight sensor with trend charts. Here we can see that the
occupancy data has been fed into the building management
system.

When the count increases, we can react quickly and supply

more fresh air into the space to keep air quality at a desired
level.
Close the chart and click Return

EcoStruxure Building Advisor is a framework for how
Schneider Electric and our EcoXpert partners deliver service
to buildings, their owners and occupants.
By combining skilled personnel, technology and collaborative
insights, we can optimize and improve the performance of
your building.
Building Advisor provides a window into building
performance by continuously monitoring and anticipating
irregularities. On average, our Building Advisor services
drives 33% few complaints from occupants, 29% decrease in
unscheduled maintenance and a 20% energy cost
reduction. Combining the best in class people, technology
and collaboration, we’re providing lifetime building
efficiency. EcoStruxure Building Advisor allows our
customers to do more.
In this dashboard, you get an overview of past months’
performance, including avoidable costs, diagnostic
summaries and results of specific equipment across all
buildings in the portfolio.
The Diagnostics dashboard provides a prioritized ranking of
equipment performance, comfort and maintenance issues
detected using analytics on the data from your building.
With this information, building owners can make better
informed decisions about fixes that will improve the
operating efficiency of the building.

As part of Building Advisor, it can also produce reports that
can highlight annual summaries of building performance,
showing cost savings from the last year. It also shows in
process tasks that can further achieve savings of energy
usage, as well as anomalies from the building to highlight
further errors that could be causing unnecessary costs.
Now let’s take a look at how we can utilise a new feature in
EcoStruxure Building Operation to navigate through the
system.
Semantic tagging allows for a system to be tagged and
detailed down to point level to build your building
management system so that it can be presented with a focus
on point-to-point relationships.
Inside our Sydney site, we have tagged some equipment and
spaces to show this.
Let’s take a look at how this works via our meeting room.
 Click on the temperature icon If a point has been tagged in the system, there is an icon that
links directly to the semantic view window.

This view provides the relationship from any point to its

equipment and location through to the location of the site
with the different colored connector lines.

Here we can see the temperature sensor for the meeting

room which has multiple feeds to relationships of the
building.

Hover over the lines to show From this view, we can see the sensor is a point in the first-
relationship floor meeting room, which is fed by the first-floor fan coil unit
01.

This piece of equipment is located on the first floor and is

also fed via the boiler pumps from boiler 01 in the plant
room.

All of the building areas and floors are then located to the
overall building, which can then be located to a region,
meaning a multi-site campus could all be tagged and related.

Click on Trend Chart With the temperature point selected, the semantic view
automatically associates any trend charts and active alarms
and displays these in an easy to view tab at the top.

Here we can see the historical trend of this sensor.

Confidential Property of Schneider Electric | Page 35

 Click on Alarms As we click into the alarms tab, we can see there are no
active alarms for this point.

Click on Overview

Click on First Floor Meeting Room The semantic view allows the user to navigate through these
relationships, displaying any further ones at each stage.

Here we can click into the first-floor meeting room and see all
the sensor points associated with the room.

Under each point name, it displays the semantic tag class we

Click on Trend Chart have associated it with.

If all the points in a space are set up with trend logs, the
trend charts display these logs again automatically.

Click on Overview

Click on First Floor Let’s navigate further up the view to see how the first floor is
operating.

As we click into the first floor, in the window below, it

displays all rooms that have been defined with any pieces of
equipment that are located in this space.

At floor level, we can also investigate if there are any alarms

in the space as the semantic view has filtered alarms for this
Click on Alarms area. Here we can see that there is an active alarm in the
first-floor main office.

Click on Overview Let’s go to this area to see if the equipment is functioning as

 Here we can see room space sensor is below the normal
expectancy.

From this view, we can identify that is fed by the air handling
unit.

Click on AHU-01

Here we can see all the associated points and further

components of the air handling unit.

Everything looks ok and the supply temperature is expected,

so this was probably caused the unit tripping earlier.

We can make a note for our engineer to keep an eye on the

equipment.

However, with the use of semantics, we are able to quickly

understand and navigate the site to find root causes of faults
or issues that arise as well as analyse the spaces of our
building.

Now we have viewed all this data as a manager of the facility

and even the manager of many facilities across the world.

But what about the individual managers of the individual

sites, that shouldn’t see access to certain elements?

Welcome to EcoStruxure Building Operation. We
are going to demonstrate how easy it is to view
your building and site’s operation no matter what
device you might have.
Dashboard functionality in EcoStruxure Building
Operation provides access to even more
information than ever and helps you meet the
ever-changing demands of modern buildings.
Although we aren’t going to create dashboards in
this demo, as we are only going to view them, it is
important to note that anyone with the proper
credentials can create dashboards from a
standard web browser – no additional tools are
needed.
They are also native to Building Operation and do
not require any special software installation: if
you have a web browser, you can create, build,
and edit with ease.
 Scroll down through the screens one by one. You can see that all the functionality that you
might want are present in the dashboards. Even
when viewing the dashboards on my small size
screen, I still have visibility into the alarms.

Initially, I have four alarms.

Dashboards can be configured in multiple design
styles. For example, background colors and
images can be configured to complement a
customers’ brand. Custom dashboards are ideal
for displaying building information on screens in
public lobbies and other locations.
There’s even a ‘slideshow’ function in the new
kiosk mode to display series of content
automatically.
Slideshows are especially useful in lobbies and
public areas for a rolling display of dynamic data
from your building.
Show off how well you are doing to save energy,
improve comfort, and reduce your carbon
footprint.

With how easy the dashboards are to setup; the

user can start to see historical trends with their
building and start to plan for the future
expectations of the building usage.

Click on the comparison Icon

Confidential Property of Schneider Electric | Page 45

 Once we have built up the dashboards
individually, we can compare this data to visually
see the differences. Here, we can quickly see how
much total energy usage we have compared to
how much we have recovered through solar
power being generated onsite.

Click on the Green Features

This is an example of a dashboard that could be

used in a public area in kiosk mode. This display
could be viewed through a monitor display key
information to improve the building’s efficiencies.

And with all the data, we can customize the
settings to display information in an
understandable format.
In the latest version of EcoStruxure Building
Operation, we have access to even more widgets
for dashboarding to allow visibility of alarm and
event information.
With this dashboard, we can have visibility of all
alarms across the campus. Using the new alarm
pie widgets, we can filter alarms by alarm state to
show current conditions, but then filter these
again into active alarms based on Category or
priority to quickly evaluate urgency.
Here we can see we have 15 active alarms across
the site across several categories.
Using the alarm Sankey chart, we can really start
to see the relationship these alarms have with the
system to quickly understand the site. For this
example, we have flow of alarm state, showing
each location, and then the category of each
alarm.
 Click on HVAC Alarms We can then further understand the alarm details
by clicking into each individual section.

This displays a floating window which filters the

alarm view for this specific area, allowing for a
quick response to the alarms in the system
without the need to manually filter alarm views.

Close the alarm window

Finally, we have an alarm pareto chart that
Highlight the Pareto Chart organizes alarms based on frequency and total
alarms.

Here we can see the arrangement of alarms

filtered by category highlighting which alarms
need to be prioritized.

Click the Home Button

Alongside the alarm widgets, we also have event

Click on the Event Dashboard widgets that provide visibility of system events.

Confidential Property of Schneider Electric | Page 49

 Similar to the alarm widgets, we have event pies
and Sankey charts that provide a view into what
is occurring in the system.

There is also have an event rate chart, that shows

historical events based on filters.

Here we can see the usage of the system, filtered

by username that have logged into Building
Operation today as well as the last 30 days.

With the Sankey chart, we can then further see

what actions these users have completed by
filtering the Sankey chart by System event Id.

The dashboard functionality using the latest

widgets provides new insights into the building
management system to quickly react to faults as
well as understand and analyse how the system is
performing.
