Abstract: A method for operating a wireless communications device having a low energy mode of operation and a second mode of operation includes providing a first clock signal and a second clock signal in the second mode of operation. The first clock signal has a first frequency within a first frequency offset range. The second clock signal has a second frequency within a second frequency offset range. The first frequency is lower than the second frequency, and the first frequency offset range is greater than the second frequency offset range. The method includes generating a calibrated version of the first clock signal in the second mode of operation using a measurement of the first clock signal measured using a timer controlled by the second clock signal. The method includes using the calibrated version of the first clock signal in the low energy mode while the second clock signal is disabled.

Abstract: A method is for controlling a home automation installation. The installation includes pieces of home automation equipment and a central control member. The method includes providing a desired operation of the installation, providing a first operation of each piece of equipment, optimizing the operation of the installation by modifying the first operation of at least one piece of equipment, to obtain a second operation of the at least one piece of equipment, and an operation of the installation according to the desired operation, and installing a virtual machine in the at least one piece of equipment. The virtual machine is able to impose the second operation on the at least one piece of equipment.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for controlling a home automation installation (10), the installation (10) including pieces of home automation equipment (18, 20) and a central control member (16), the method including a step for: providing a desired operation of the installation (10), providing a first operation of each piece of equipment (18, 20), optimizing the operation of the installation (10) by modifying the first operation of at least one piece of equipment (18, 20), to obtain a second operation of said at least one piece of equipment (18, 20), and an operation of the installation (10) according to the desired operation, and installing a virtual machine in said at least one piece of equipment (18, 20), the virtual machine being able to impose the second operation on said at least one piece of equipment (18, 20).
