Patent ID: 7953327

Claim:
A commissioning tool for a number of wireless nodes, each of said number of wireless nodes having a unique device identifier, said commissioning tool comprising: a light source structured to reflect light from one of said number of wireless nodes; a directive antenna; a first mechanism structured to determine distance to said one of said number of wireless nodes; a housing, said light source, said directive antenna and said first mechanism each being mounted in the same common orientation with respect to said housing; a second mechanism structured to determine azimuth angle and elevation angle of said same common orientation; a third mechanism structured to determine global position of said commissioning tool; a wireless transceiver cooperating with said directive antenna; and a processor cooperating with said wireless transceiver to receive the unique device identifier from said one of said number of wireless nodes, said processor being structured to receive said distance to said one of said number of wireless nodes from said first mechanism, to receive said azimuth angle and said elevation angle from said second mechanism, to receive the global position of said commissioning tool from said third mechanism, and to control said light source.
