System And Method Of Configuring A Control System For A Plurality Of Devices
First Claim
1. A system of configuring a control system for a plurality of devices (12) of different types, each device having at least one operating parameter, the system comprising:
- a memory for storing at least one operating parameter setting for each device, the operating parameter setting depending on a use parameter;
means for assigning a set of devices to a first area (4, 6, 8, 10);
means for assigning a use parameter to said first area; and
means for selecting an operating parameter setting corresponding to said use parameter for each device in said first area,the system further comprising;
means for assigning a further use parameter to a plurality of areas (14) including said first area (4, 6, 8, 10); and
means for selecting an operating parameter setting corresponding to said further use parameter for at least one device in said plurality of areas.

Abstract
In a method and system of configuring a control system for a plurality of devices (12) of different types, each device has at least one operating parameter. At least one operating parameter setting is stored in a memory for each device. The operating parameter setting depends on a use parameter. A set of devices is assigned to a first area (4, 6, 8, 10), and a use parameter is assigned to the first area. An operating parameter setting corresponding to the use parameter is selected for each device in the first area. A further use parameter is assigned to a plurality of areas (14) including the first area (4, 6, 8, 10). An operating parameter setting corresponding to said further use parameter is selected for at least one device in said plurality of areas.
