Abstract
An automation apparatus, a reader apparatus, and a method for configuring an automation apparatus. The method includes: harvesting wirelessly, by a passive electronic tag, energy from a reader apparatus; receiving wirelessly, by the passive electronic tag, configuration data from the reader apparatus; storing, by the passive electronic tag, the configuration data to a non-volatile memory of the passive electronic tag; and reading, by a processor, the configuration data from the passive electronic tag.
Claims12
An automation apparatus, comprising:
- a passive electronic tag configured to harvest wirelessly energy from a reader apparatus, receive wirelessly configuration data from the reader apparatus, and store the configuration data to a non-volatile memory of the passive electronic tag;
- and
- a processor, connected to the passive electronic tag, and configured to read the configuration data from the passive electronic tag,
- wherein the passive electronic tag is configured to harvest wirelessly the energy, receive wirelessly the configuration data, and store the configuration data while the processor is switched off, and the processor is configured to read the stored configuration data from the passive electronic tag after the processor is switched on.
