7. A method of a building for pairing building devices, the method comprising:
operating, by one or more processing circuits, an actuation device of the building to affect a variable of the building;
generating, by the one or more processing circuits, an actuation data time series indicating operation of the actuation device;
receiving, by the one or more processing circuits, a plurality of sensor response signals from a plurality of sensors, the plurality of sensor response signals indicating an effect of the operation of the actuation device;
generating, by the one or more processing circuits, a plurality of sensor data time series based on the plurality of sensor response signals;
performing, by the one or more processing circuits, a time series analysis on the actuation data time series and the plurality of sensor data time series, wherein performing the time series analysis includes:
detecting a dimensional mismatch between the actuation data time series and a particular sensor data time series; and
correcting the dimensional mismatch by modifying at least one of the actuation data time series and the particular sensor data time series; and
establishing, by the one or more processing circuits, a device pairing comprising the actuation device and one sensor of the plurality of sensors based on the time series analysis.
