Arrangement and method for configuring equipment
First Claim
1. An arrangement for configuring equipment for personal performance monitoring, said equipment comprising:
- at least one carrier item comprising;
a mounting zone for receiving a communication module,one or more sensors and/or actuators,a first processing unit functionally connected to said mounting zone and said sensors and/or actuators and configured to process sensor signals from said sensors and/or actuators and to communicate with a communication module mounted on said mounting zone,a first memory unit in said carrier item that is functionally connected to said first processing unit,said communication module adapted to be removably and repetitively mounted on said mounting zone of the carrier item and having a second processing unit configured to further process said sensor/actuator signals and to communicate processed signals over a wireless communication protocol,a remote device adapted to communicate with said communication module over said wireless communication protocol and to send a predefined code to said communication module to configure the same to process sensor or actuator signals from said carrier item according to a use of said carrier item as identified by said predefined code,wherein said communication module is configured to write or to instruct said first processing unit to write said predefined code into said first memory unit in order to enable said first and second processing units to process sensor or actuator signals from said carrier item according to an instruction set corresponding to said use of said carrier item.

Abstract
The invention concerns an arrangement and a method for configuring equipment for personal performance monitoring comprising at least one carrier item having a mounting zone for receiving a communication module, one or more sensors and/or actuators and a first processing unit functionally connected to said mounting zone and said sensors and/or actuators. The first processing unit is configured to process sensor signals from the sensors and/or actuators and to communicate with a communication module that is mounted on the mounting zone of the carrier item and having a second processing unit configured to further process said sensor/actuator signals and to communicate processed signals to a remote device over a wireless communication protocol. A remote device is adapted to provide a predefined code to configure the equipment to process sensor or actuator signals according to a use of said carrier item as identified by said predefined code.

10. A method for configuring equipment for use in personal performance monitoring, comprising the steps of:
-
providing at least one carrier item having functionally connected thereto sensor or actuators, and comprising a first processing unit, a first memory unit functionally connected to said first processing unit, and a mounting zone for receiving a communication module, providing said communication module having a second processing unit and a remote device which are capable of wireless communication with each other over a wireless communication protocol, removably and repetitively mounting said communication module onto said mounting zone to enable said first and second processing units to be functionally connected and to communicate with each other, —
selecting in said remote device a predefined code,communicating said predefined code from said remote device over said wireless communication protocol to said communication module, writing or instructing said first processing unit to write said predefined code from said communication module to said first memory unit, configuring said communication module to process sensor or actuator signals from said carrier item according to a use of said carrier item as identified by said predefined code. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14)
