Abstract
A monitoring system, including an interface configured to communicate with a building device, a sensor, and a memory. The monitoring system includes a processor configured to communicate with the memory and the interface. The processor is configured to transmit a test signal to at least one of the building device and the sensor. The processor is further configured to receive a return signal from at least one of a building device signal and a sensor signal. Further, the processor is configured to associate the building device to the sensor based on the return signal.
Claims20
A monitoring system including an interface configured to communicate with a building device, a sensor, and a memory, comprising:
- a processor configured to communicate with the memory and the interface, the processor configured to transmit a test signal to at least one of the building device and the sensor, the processor further configured to receive a return signal from at least one of the building device and the sensor;
- and
- wherein the processor is configured to associate the building device with the sensor based on the return signal.
A method of monitoring a system, comprising:
- transmitting a test signal to at least one of a building device and a sensor;
- receiving a return signal from at least one of the building device and the sensor;
- and
- determining an association between the building device and the sensor based on the return signal.
A program product for monitoring a system, the program product comprising machine-readable program code for causing, when executed, one or more machines to perform the following method steps:
- transmitting a test signal to at least one of a building device and a sensor;
- receiving a return signal from at least one of the building device and the sensor;
- and
- determining an association between the building device and the sensor based on the return signal.
