Abstract
An integrated computerized control system is capable of automating phases of electrochromic glass configuration, commissioning and control using a database synchronized between a provider side (e.g. manufacturer) and a customer side (e.g. installation location). The control system may support an on-site commissioning process that better ensures that each particular piece of electrochromic glass is correctly matched to glass-specific information used to configure a respective controller to control the particular piece of glass having particular characteristics.
