According to an aspect of the invention a system for commissioning devices is provided, which system comprises: a first device and a second device; an RFID tag comprised in the first device; a host processor comprised in the first device; wherein the second device is arranged to generate an electromagnetic field; wherein the RFID tag is arranged to detect the electromagnetic field and to wake up the host processor upon detecting said electromagnetic field in order for the second device to communicate with the host processor. Furthermore, a corresponding method for commissioning devices is provided. Since the RFID tag comprised in the first device is arranged to wake up the host processor, an end-user does not have to switch on the first device manually. Therefore, the user interaction is simplified. Furthermore, there is no need for a separate power button on the first device. The latter reduces cost and simplifies the design of the first device.
A system for commissioning devices, the system comprising:

(canceled)
A method for commissioning a first device and a second device, the method comprising that an RFID tag comprised in the first device wakes up a host processor comprised in the first device upon detecting an electromagnetic field generated by the second device, in order for the second device to communicate with the host processor, wherein the RFID tag comprises a tag controller which sends a wake-up signal to the host processor in order to wake up the host processor, and the tag controller sends the wake-up signal only if data are read from and/or written to predetermined areas of a tag memory.
A system as claimed in claim 18, wherein the second device writes configuration parameters into a dedicated area of the tag memory in order to reconfigure said conditions, and/or wherein the host processor writes configuration parameters into said dedicated area by means of a host connection in order to reconfigure said conditions.
A system for commissioning devices, the system comprising:
