Zusammenfassung:Methods and systems are provided for pairing electronic devices. One method includes generating a code sequence for pairing an electronic device with an application executed by a processor of a controller, the controller being remote to the electronic device, and the electronic device and the controller interfacing with a server via a network connection. The code sequence includes a configuration mode portion indicating a role for a user of the controller, an invitation sequence having invitation code for the user and a random code portion. The method further includes receiving the code sequence by the electronic device; validating the code sequence by the electronic device using a key data structure; and pairing the electronic device to the controller for enabling the application to monitor and command the electronic device.
