Wireless node auto-reset function

摘要

A method for wireless communication within a building automation system is disclosed. The method includes establishing a communications link between a first automation component and a second automation component, detecting a change in the communications link at the second automation component, and initiating a reset function on the second automation component in response to the detected change in the communications link. A building automation system is further disclosed. The system includes a first automation component, a second automation component in communication with the first automation component via a communication link. The second automation component further includes a reset function stored on a memory and executable by a processor in communication with the memory, such that the reset function is activated in response to a change in the communications link.

1. A method for wireless communication within a building automation system, the method comprising:
establishing a first communications link, the first communications link being between a first automation component and a second automation component; sending a communication signal from the first automation component to the second automation component via the first communications link; detecting a change in the first communications link, via which the communication signal is sent from the first automation component to the second automation component, at the second automation component based on the sending, wherein detecting the change in the first communications link includes detecting absence of the communication signal at the second automation component; initiating a reset function on the second automation component in response to the detected absence of the communication signal at the second automation component, the initiated reset function on the second automation component comprising restarting the second automation component; establishing a second communications link, the second communications link being between the second automation component and a third automation component; detecting a change in the second communications link, via which the communication signal is sendable from the second automation component to the third automation component when the communication signal is received by the second automation component from the first automation component, at the third automation component, wherein detecting the change in the second communications link includes detecting absence of the communication signal at the third automation component; and initiating a reset function on the third automation component in response to the detected absence of the communication signal at the third automation component, the initiated reset function on the third automation component comprising restarting the third automation component.
