Abstract
A method for establishing control relationships between at least two networked devices is conceived. Further a corresponding configuration device, networked device and non-transitory computer program product are provided.
Claims27
A method for establishing control relationships between at least two networked devices, the method comprising the following steps:
- (a) a configuration device reads identification data of a first networked device from a first machine-readable tag, said first machine-readable tag being connected to said first networked device;
- (b) the configuration device writes the identification data of the first networked device to a second machine-readable tag, while supplying a power necessary to accomplish said writing to the second machine-readable tag, said second machine-readable tag being connected to a second networked device;
- (c) a controller unit of the second networked device reads the identification data of the first networked device from the second machine-readable tag;
- (d) the controller unit of the second networked device uses the identification data of the first networked device to establish a control relationship between the first networked device and the second networked device.
