Patent attributes
A first embodiment of the invention includes an arrangement for maintaining an environment for a movable object. The arrangement includes an information device, at least one RF device and a building system controller. The information device is disposed in a substantially fixed relationship with the movable object such that the memory element remains in the vicinity of the movable object when the movable object is moved. The information device includes a memory element and a first RF element, the memory element including at least one parameter having information identifying at least one threshold for an environmental condition. The first RF element is operably coupled to the memory element to receive the at least one parameter therefrom, and is operable to modulate a parameter signal containing the at least one parameter onto an RF signal for transmission. The second RF element is fixedly disposed in the vicinity of a structure, and is operable to receive the RF signal from the first RF element when the object is in the vicinity of the structure. The building control system controller is operably coupled to the second RF element to receive the at least one parameter from the RF signal, and is operable to alter at least one building control system output based at least in part on the at least one parameter.
