Abstract
An approach for configuration of a controller in a building automation system (BAS) using a code that may be generated by the BAS, but accessed without a network work connection.
Claims17
A field panel for controlling a building automation system, comprising:
- a processor;
- an input device of the building automation system, coupled to the processor, able to read a code received from a mobile device,
- wherein the input device is a scanner/camera;
- and
- wherein the processor decodes the code into data associated with building automation and
- at least a first portion of the data is used to configure an application executed by the processor,
- wherein the first portion of the data comprises authentication data;
- and
- a communication module coupled to the processor, wherein the communication module transmits at least a second portion of the data associated with the building automation system to at least one environment system that makes up the building automation system,
- wherein the second portion of the data comprises configuration data.
7 more elements
A method for configuration of a building automation system, comprising:
- reading a code with an input device of the building automation system, wherein the code is received from a mobile device, and
- wherein the input device is a scanner/camera;
- decoding the code into data associated with building automation with a processor of the building automation system;
- configuring an application of the building automation system executed by the processor with at least a first portion of the data,
- wherein the first data includes authentication data;
- and
- transmitting at least a second portion of the data associated with the building automation system to at least one environment system that makes up the building automation system,
- wherein the second data includes configuration data.
5 more elements
A non-transitory computer-readable medium with a plurality of instructions for implementing a method for configuration of a building automation system, comprising instructions for:
- reading a code with a camera/scanner input device of the building automation system, wherein the code is received from a mobile device;
- decoding the code into data associated with building automation with a processor of the building automation system;
- configuring an application of the building automation system with at least a first portion of the data,
- wherein the first data includes authentication data;
- and
- transmitting at least a second portion of the data associated with the building automation system to at least one environment system that makes up the building automation system,
- wherein the second data includes configuration data.
