REGISTRATION OF NODES AT REMOTE SITES

摘要

Systems and methods for providing registration at a remote site that may include, for example, a monitoring module that may communicate with a remote site. A registration protocol may be used by the monitoring module and the remote site in generating the messages communicated during the registration process. The monitoring module may gather and generate various identification information to be included in the registration protocol messages. The registration information provided by the monitoring module maybe stored at the remote site in a database server having a database. A confirmation message may be communicated from the remote site to the monitoring module that may either acknowledge successful registration or report that an error occurred during the registration process.

a sensor being configured to sense information related to a condition of a location; an audio output device being configured to output audible information; a display being configured to display visual information related to a setting of the node and information sensed by the sensor; a user-input component for receiving user input; and software being configured to be executable by processing hardware of the node, the software being configured to facilitate, at least in part, registration of the node at a remote site, wherein registering the node at the remote site includes associating registration information of the node with a user account at the remote site, wherein the registration information of the node includes an identifier that identifies the node, wherein the node is located remote from the remote site, and wherein the user account must be created at the remote site before the node can be registered at the remote site.
