FIELD: radio engineering, communication.SUBSTANCE: at the first step, an associating or re-associating timer (ZC_REASSC_TIMER) window is initialised at a(ZC) defining time. A zone specific information (ZN_SPEC) message is transmitted during the (ZC_REASSC_TIMER) window. Further, the method includes comparing whether the zone specific information contained in the (ZN_SPEC) message includes the device specific information that matches local device specific information. If during comparison a pre-defined matching criterion is fulfilled, an association request message (RA_REQ) is sent to zone controllers (ZC). The (RA_REQ) message includes device description parameters and indicates a request from the devices to join the control zones controlled by the said (ZC). It is determined whether the association is confirmed by means of comparing, by the respective (ZC), the device description parameters match zone specific information.EFFECT: efficient association of devices in a control network.14 cl, 3 dwg, 4 tbl |
