Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A control unit for controlling an HVAC network that includes a first interface operable to facilitate communications with a plurality of HVAC units and a second interface operable to facilitate communication with an interactive display. The control unit further includes a system clock, a Wi-Fi module, a universal settings database, and a processor. The processor is configured to connect to the communications network using the Wi-Fi module, to detect a sibling control unit over the communications network, and to receive a sibling control unit time for the sibling control unit. The processor is further configured to determine that the control unit time is synchronized with the sibling control unit time, to generate a setting update that includes values for one or more settings, and to transmit the setting update to the sibling control unit.
