Controlling wireless, low-power radio frequency network
First Claim
1. A method for controlling a wireless, low-power radio frequency network, which comprises a master device and at least one slave device subordinated thereto, the master device being configured to convey control data to said at least one slave device and to receive detection data from said at least one slave device, the method comprising establishing a data transmission connection between the master device and an external terminal via a second telecommunication network, arranging said received detection data in the master device into a format required by a transmission protocol used in said transmission connection for being conveyed to said external terminal, and conveying control data from said external terminal device to the master device in the format required by the transmission protocol used in said transmission connection for controlling said at least one slave device.

Abstract
A method for controlling a wireless, low-power radio frequency network, and a control device, the network comprising a control device arranged as a master device and at least one slave device subordinated thereto. The master device is arranged to convey control data to the slave device and to receive detection data from the slave device. A data transmission connection is established between the master device and an external terminal via a second telecommunication network, in the master device the received detection data are arranged into a format required by the data transmission protocol used in the data transmission connection to be forwarded to the external terminal and control data from the external terminal to the master device for controlling at least one slave device is conveyed in the format required by the data transmission protocol used on the transmission connection.
