1. A method for updating a parameter in a device in an HVAC network, comprising:
- sending, by an interface to said device;
a) a parameter value change message, andb) a new value of an installer parameter;
determining by said device if said new value is within an allowed range;
updating said parameter with said new value in a memory of said device if said parameter update is within said allowed range;
sending, by said device, said updated parameter to said interface; and
relaying, by said interface, said updated parameter to an active subnet controller of said HVAC network.

Abstract
A method for updating a parameter in a device in an HVAC network includes, in one embodiment, sending, by an interface to the device, 1) a parameter value change message, and 2) a new value of an installer parameter. The device determines if the new value is within an allowed range. The parameter is updated with the new value in a memory of the device if the parameter update is within the allowed range. The device sends the parameter to the interface. The parameter is relayed by the interface to an active subnet controller of the HVAC network.
