ABSTRACT:
A monitoring system, including an interface configured to communicate with a building device, a sensor, and a memory. The monitoring system includes a processor configured to communicate with the memory and the interface. The processor is configured to transmit a test signal to at least one of the building device and the sensor. The processor is further configured to receive a return signal from at least one of a building device signal and a sensor signal. Further, the processor is configured to associate the building device to the sensor based on the return signal.
