Abstract: Apparatus for controlling sensors is provided. The solution comprises an apparatus having a first interface (102) comprising device addresses for connecting sensors (104, 106), each sensor comprising an identification and registers for monitoring and controlling the sensor; a second interface (108) for communicating with external devices. The apparatus is configured to configured to control the second interface (108) to receive a message in symbol format, the message comprising a sender id, a recipient id and the register address of a sensor; to process messages received from external devices, the messages related to sensors; direct using the first interface the message to the register address if the recipient identification is the identification of sensor.
