AUTOMATIC FOUNDATION FIELDBUS DEVICE COMMISSIONING
First Claim
1. A device, comprising:
- an interface configured to receive an indication of a second device on a network; and
a processor configured to;
determine if the indication is one of an expected set of indications;
generate a permanent node address for assignment to the second device if the indication is one of an expected set of indications, wherein the permanent node address places the second device into an active mode as a permanent node addressed device;
receive at least one device parameter from the permanent node addressed device;
determine if the at least one device parameter matches an expected device parameter for the permanent node addressed device; and
generate a second permanent node address for assignment to the device if the at least one device parameter matches the expected device parameter for the permanent node addressed device.

Abstract
A device includes an interface configured to receive an indication of a second device on a network, and a processor configured to determine if the indication is one of an expected set of indications and generate a permanent node address for assignment to the second device if the indication is one of an expected set of indications. The permanent node address places the second device into an active mode as a permanent node addressed device. The processor is further configured to receive at least one device parameter from the permanent node addressed device, determine if the at least one device parameter matches an expected device parameter for the permanent node addressed device, and generate a second permanent node address for assignment to the device if the at least one device parameter matches the expected device parameter for the permanent node addressed device.

8. A non-transitory computer-readable medium having computer executable code stored thereon, the code comprising instructions for:
-
determining that a second device on a network based on a received indication; determining if the indication is one of an expected set of indications; generating a permanent node address for assignment to the second device if the indication is one of an expected set of indications, wherein the permanent node address places the second device into an active mode as a permanent node addressed device; receiving at least one device parameter from the permanent node addressed device; determining if the at least one device parameter matches an expected device parameter for the permanent node addressed device; and generating a second permanent node address for assignment to the device if the at least one device parameter matches the expected device parameter for the permanent node addressed device. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13)
