A device for controlling a node of a wireless network, the node being associated to at least one load unit, comprising:
- a control unit adapted to adjust a communication mode of the node based on an operation state of the load unit.
Method for controlling a node of a wireless network, the node being associated to at least one load unit, comprising the steps of:
- determining an operation state of the load unit;
- and
- adjusting a communication mode of the node for communication with other nodes of the wireless network based on the determined operation state of the load unit.
System for controlling a node of a wireless network, comprising:
- a plurality of nodes, at least one of them being associated to a load unit;
- a central controlling device communicating with at least one of the nodes via the wireless network, wherein the central controlling device is adapted to adjust a communication mode of at least one node based on an operation state of the load unit associated to the node.
