Abstract
A door system has a plurality of doors coupled to communication lines which interconnect the doors. The doors have a first outer face having an opening therein and a second outer face spaced a predetermined distance apart from the first outer face. A void is located between the first and second outer face and is sized to receive at least a portion of an integrated door unit. A wiring harness is located between the first and second outer faces. The wiring harness has a connector coupled thereto. The wiring harness is coupled to the integrated door unit. A sensor is coupled to the integrated door unit. To communicate, the integrated door units have a memory storing an address, and a data map. The integrated door units form output data words using the address and the data map.
Claims43
A door assembly comprising:
- a first outer face;
- a second outer face spaced a predetermined distance from said first outer face;
- an integrated door unit having a controller and a data map memory storing a logical address of a second door assembly for generating an output word directed to the second door assembly, said output word being a function of said data map memory;
- a void between said first and second outer face sized to receive at least a portion of said integrated door unit;
- a sensor coupled to said integrated door unit, said sensor generating a sensor output signal,
- said word formed at least partially in response to said sensor output.
A building control system comprising a plurality of doors comprising:
- a plurality of communication lines;
- a plurality of integrated door units each associated with a respective door coupled through said communication lines, each of said plurality of door units having an address associated therewith;
- each of said integrated door units having a memory storing said addresses of said plurality of door units in a data map, said integrated door units forming output data words for communicating with another of said plurality of integrated door units using at least one of said addresses from said data map.
A building control system associated with a plurality of openings of a building comprising:
- a plurality of communication lines;
- a plurality of integrated door units coupled together with said plurality of communication lines, each of said integrated door unit forming data output words, each of said integrated door units having an address associated therewith;
- each of said integrated door units having, a transceiver;
- and
- a door controller coupled to said transceiver, said transceiver receiving and directing data output words having a corresponding address to said door controller, said controller generating a response to said data corresponding output word directed to another of said plurality of integrated door units.
A method for assembling a door comprising the steps of:
- mounting an integrated door unit into an interior of a first outer face of a door;
- coupling a connector to said integrated door unit;
- securing the second outer face to the first outer face substantially having the electronic module between the first face and second face;
- coupling a configuration computer to said connector;
- loading an opening address into the memory;
- loading a data map into said memory with an address of another door;
- loading a communications protocol into said memory.
