Patent number: 9385878Abstract: A system for communicating with a network of devices is disclosed. The system can include a control device configured to send a first digital communication using a network protocol. The system can also include a number of network devices communicably coupled to the control device, where each of the plurality of network devices is configured to receive the first digital communication using the network protocol. The system can further include a first communication channel communicably coupled to the control device and the plurality of network devices. The first digital communication sent by the control device can be sent to all of the network devices using the first communication channel. The first digital communication can be addressed to a number of recipient devices of the network devices.Type: GrantFiled: February 5, 2014Date of Patent: July 5, 2016Assignee: Cooper Technologies CompanyInventors: Kevin Gerrish, Mark Bishop
