INFORMATION EXCHANGE USING NEAR FIELD COMMUNICATIONS IN HVAC SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A method of exchanging parametric data between at least one HVAC component including a first near field communication interface and a second device including a second near field communication interface, the method comprising the steps of:
- supplying power to the first near field communication interface;
initiating a pairing event between the first near field communication interface and the second near field communication interface; and
exchanging the parametric data between the first near field communication interface and the second near field communication interface.

Abstract
A method of exchanging parametric data between at least one HVAC component including a first near field communication interface and a second device including a second near field communication interface is provided. The method includes supplying power to the first near field communication interface, and initiating a pairing event between the first near field communication interface and the second near field communication interface. The method also includes exchanging the parametric data between the first near field communication interface and the second near field communication interface.

17. A method of exchanging parametric data between at least one HVAC component including a first near field communication interface and a second device including a second near field communication interface, the method comprising the steps of:
-
supplying power to the first near field communication interface; initiating a first pairing event between the first near field communication interface and the second near field communication interface; exchanging a first set of parametric data between the first near field communication interface and the second near field communication interface; disconnecting the first pairing event between the first near field communication interface and the second near field communication interface; editing the first set of parametric data to create a revised set of parametric data; initiating a second pairing event between the first near field communication interface and the second near field communication interface; and exchanging the revised set of parametric data between the first near field communication interface and the second near field communication interface.
