Abstract

Embodiments include systems and methods comprising a gateway located at a premise forming at least one network on the premise that includes a plurality of premise devices. A sensor user interface (SUI) is coupled to the gateway and presented to a user via a remote device. The SUI includes at least one display element. The at least one display element includes a floor plan display that represents at least one floor of the premise. The floor plan display visually and separately indicates a location and a current state of each premise device of the plurality of premise devices.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A method comprising:
 receiving first layout data associated with a premises, wherein the first layout data indicates a location of one or more structural components of the premises;   causing, based on the first layout data, output of a user interface that visually indicates at least a portion of the premises;   receiving user input indicative of a location of a premises device at the premises; and   storing second layout data associated with the premises, wherein the second layout data indicates a location, relative to the location of at least one of the one or more structural components, of a premises device icon associated with the premises device.   
     
     
         2 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 causing, based on the user input, output of the premises device icon at the indicated location of the premise device icon.   
     
     
         3 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 causing, based on the second layout data, output of the user interface.   
     
     
         4 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 sending, to a computing device, the second layout data, wherein the computing device is configured to cause, based on the second layout data, output of the user interface.   
     
     
         5 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the location of the premises device icon is based on an orientation of the at least one of the one or more structural components. 
     
     
         6 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the premises device comprises at least one of a security sensor, a door sensor, a window sensor, a motion sensor, a fire sensor, a smoke sensor, a glass-break sensor, a flood sensor, a light, a lighting control device, a thermostat, a camera, a lock, or an automation device. 
     
     
         7 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one of the one or more structural components comprises a wall. 
     
     
         8 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising storing the first layout data and the second layout data in a file associated with the user interface. 
     
     
         9 . A method comprising:
 receiving first layout data associated with a premises, wherein the first layout data indicates a location of one or more structural components of the premises;   receiving user input indicative of a location of a premises device at the premises; and   causing, based on the first layout data and the user input, output of a user interface that visually indicates at least a portion of the premises and a premises device icon associated with the premises device.   
     
     
         10 . The method of  claim 9 , further comprising:
 storing second layout data associated with the premises, wherein the second layout data indicates a location of the premises device icon relative to the location of at least one of the one or more structural components.   
     
     
         11 . The method of  claim 10 , further comprising:
 causing, based on the second layout data, output of the user interface.   
     
     
         12 . The method of  claim 10 , further comprising:
 sending, to a computing device, the second layout data, wherein the computing device is configured to cause, based on the second layout data, output of the user interface.   
     
     
         13 . The method of  claim 9 , wherein the location of the premises device icon is based on an orientation of the at least one of the one or more structural components. 
     
     
         14 . The method of  claim 9 , wherein the premises device comprises at least one of a security sensor, a door sensor, a window sensor, a motion sensor, a fire sensor, a smoke sensor, a glass-break sensor, a flood sensor, a light, a lighting control device, a thermostat, a camera, a lock, or an automation device. 
     
     
         15 . The method of  claim 9 , wherein the at least one of the one or more structural components comprises a wall. 
     
     
         16 . The method of  claim 9 , further comprising storing the first layout data and the second layout data in a file associated with the user interface. 
     
     
         17 . A device comprising:
 one or more processors; and   memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the device to:   receive first layout data associated with a premises, wherein the first layout data indicates a location of one or more structural components of the premises;   cause, based on the first layout data, output of a user interface that visually indicates at least a portion of the premises;   receive user input indicative of a location of a premises device at the premises; and   store second layout data associated with the premises, wherein the second layout data indicates a location, relative to the location of at least one of the one or more structural components, of a premises device icon associated with the premises device.   
     
     
         18 . The device of  claim 17 , wherein the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further cause the device to:
 cause, based on the user input, output of the premises device icon at the indicated location of the premise device icon.   
     
     
         19 . The device of  claim 17 , wherein the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further cause the device to:
 cause, based on the second layout data, output of the user interface.   
     
     
         20 . The device of  claim 17 , wherein the location of the premises device icon is based on an orientation of the at least one of the one or more structural components.
