First Claim
1. A method, comprising:
- a) receiving at a first computer at least one interpreted program over the Internet using a web-browser;
b) executing at the first computer at least one interpreted software program to display at least a first graphical element, each graphical element having characteristics dependent upon a status of a corresponding building control system device in a remote location;
c) transmitting to the first computer first information regarding a change in status of at least one building control system device;
d) at a time subsequent to step c), transmitting to the first computer second information regarding a subsequent change in status of at least one building control system device, said transmitting provided in the absence of a request transmitted by the first computer for updated information.

Abstract
A method includes receiving at a first computer at least one interpreted program over the Internet using a web-browser. The method further includes executing at the first computer at least one interpreted software program to display at least a first graphical element, each graphical element having characteristics dependent upon a status of a corresponding building control system device in a remote location. The method also includes transmitting to the first computer first information regarding a change in status of at least one building control system device, and then transmitting to the first computer second information regarding a subsequent change in status of at least one building control system device. The transmission of second information is provided in the absence of a request transmitted by the first computer for updated information.
