Abstract:
A system for performing software updates for building devices of a building includes a thermostat associated with one of multiple zones of the building and a controller. The controller includes a processing circuit configured to store thermostat software in a memory device of the processing circuit, the stored software being software for the thermostat and determine, by communicating with the thermostat, whether thermostat software run on the thermostat is newer or older than the thermostat software stored in the memory device. The processing circuit is configured to update the thermostat software run on the thermostat with the thermostat software stored in the memory device in response to a determination that the thermostat software run on the thermostat is older than the thermostat software stored in the memory device and operate building equipment to control an environmental condition of the building.

Claim (Index 6):
The system of  claim 1 , further comprising a second controller communicably coupled to the controller, wherein the second controller is configured to run controller software;\n wherein the processing circuit of the controller is configured to:\n store controller software in the memory device of the processing circuit, the stored controller software being software for the controller and the second controller; \n determine, by communicating with the second controller, whether the software run on the second controller is newer or older than the software stored in the memory device; and \n update the software run on the second controller with the controller software stored in the memory device in response to a determination that the controller software run on the second controller is older than the controller software stored in the memory device.
