Systems and Methods for Zoned Wireless Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioner (HVAC) Sensor Registration and Verification

A method comprising:

• receiving, using one or more processors, first data from a first portable device, the first data indicative of a condition relating to operation of an HVAC unit within a first zone of an environment, wherein the first portable device is positioned within the first zone of the environment during initial configuration of the HVAC unit and independent of the HVAC unit that is also included within the environment;
• determining, using the one or more processors and based on the first data, a first configuration change for the HVAC unit;
• and
• causing a component of the HVAC unit to perform the first configuration change.

A portable device comprising:

• one or more sensors, wherein the portable device is configured to be positioned within a first zone of an environment during initial configuration of an HVAC unit and independent of the HVAC unit;
• a processor;
• and
• a memory storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to:
• obtain first data indicative of a first condition relating to operation of the HVAC unit within the first zone;
• send the first data and second data indicating that the portable device is in the first zone to a remote server;
• traverse the environment from a first position in the first zone to a second position in the first zone or to a second zone in the environment;
• and
• obtain second data indicative of a second condition relating to operation of the HVAC unit within the first position in the first zone or the second zone.
