Automated control system for multi-level authority to operate electronic and electrical devices

摘要

An automated control system for multi-level authority to operate electronic and electrical equipment, the system including one or more wireless or wired controlled devices and one or more separate communicator and/or transmitter devices for an operation authorizing code and/or separate user identifiers for communicating the codes to a customer or a device. In the process of granting authorities to operate, the system utilizes, as positional data for a user or a device, the base station information of a mobile phone network and/or at close range a wired or wireless communication link, such as a bluetooth communication link.

主权项

1. An automated control system for multi-level authority at a building, comprising:
an electric device located at the building configured to be protected by security codes, the electric device having a first communication interface; an access control device fixedly installed at the building, the access control device having the first communication interface configured to communicate with the electric device, a second communication interface configured to communicate with a base station, the base station having a range covering the building, and a third communication interface for local communication; and a mobile transmitter configured to communicate with the base station, and having the third communication interface configured to communicate with the access control device, wherein the access control device is configured to detect a loss of connection with the mobile transmitter via the third communication interface when the mobile transmitter is moved out of a range of the third communication interface, and thereafter configured to send a first access code to the electric device via the first communication interface that limits access to functionalities of the electric device, wherein the access control device is further configured to receive a message from the base station when the mobile transmitter is moved out of the range of the base station, and thereafter configured to send a second access code to the electric device via the first communication interface that changes a setting of the electric device.
