1. A fire sprinkler system for building management comprising:
a plurality of life safety equipment including a fluid pump, a fluid pipe section, and a fluid coupling section;
a plurality of sensors position proximal to the plurality of life safety equipment, each sensor of the plurality of sensors detecting a fluid characteristic within a particular equipment of the life safety equipment;
a remote analytics unit communicating directly or indirectly with the plurality of sensors via a multi-location network, the remote analytics unit receiving data based on the fluid characteristics detected at the plurality of sensors and determining a fault condition associated with at least one equipment of the plurality of life safety equipment based on the fluid characteristic; and
a control panel coupled to the plurality of sensors, the control panel including a plurality of field configurable inputs to terminate fluid characteristic signals received from the plurality of sensors and a communication component to transmits data based on the fluid characteristic signals to the remote analytics unit,
wherein the remote analytics unit provides a command to the control panel to change an operation of one or more equipment of the plurality of life safety equipment based on the fault condition.
