COMMISSIONING WIRELESS NETWORK DEVICES ACCORDING TO AN INSTALLATION PLAN
First Claim
1. A method for commissioning installed building service devices, comprising the steps of:
- establishing wireless communication between building service devices (L1, L2, E1, E2, 2, 3) to determine spatial positions of each device relative to at least three reference nodes (G1, G2, G3);
transmitting the coordinates of the spatial positions of each device to a building services commissioning system (40);
generating a spatial position map (45) of said devices;
comparing the map with a building services plan (46) to obtain configuration data for each said device; and
issuing configuration commands to each device.

Abstract
A method for commissioning installed building service devices comprises establishing wireless communication between plural building service devices L1, L2, E1, E2, 2, 3 to determine spatial positions of each device relative to at least three reference nodes G1, G2, G3 by triangulation of the signal. The coordinates of the determined spatial positions of each device are transmitted to a building services commissioning system, which generates a spatial position map of said devices. This map is then compared with a building services plan to obtain configuration data for each said device. Based on the configuration data, configuration commands are issued to each device to commission the system.

13. A building service device commissioning apparatus (40) comprising:
-
a receiver for receiving coordinates of spatial positions for each of a plurality of building service devices (L1, L2, E1, E2, 2, 3); a map generator module (44a) for generating a spatial position map (45) of all said devices from said coordinates; a memory (47) storing a building services plan (46) comprising a location of each of said devices and configuration data relating thereto; a comparator module (44b) for comparing the generated map with the building services plan to obtain configuration data for each said device; and a configuration module (44c) for issuing configuration commands to each device. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
