Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2008065084A1] The invention relates to a device for managing the configuration and for managing the maintenance of equipment. It relates to a device for managing the configuration and the maintenance of a number N of equipment EQ<SUB>i </SUB>integrated into a system, wherein i designates an indicia for identifying the equipment EQ<SUB>i</SUB> and is between 2 and N, wherein the system, furthermore, comprises a main computer RC, the equipment EQ<SUB>i </SUB>exchanging data with the main computer RC via a communication network, wherein the equipment EQ<SUB>i </SUB>can be integrated into the system or removed from the system. According to the invention, it comprises: at least one data concentrator C, N radio tags ETi, wherein each tag ETi is integrally fixed to the equipment EQi; a number M of communication nodes Nj, where j designates an indicia for identifying the communication node Nj, j being between 2 and M, wherein M is less than or equal to N. According to the invention, a communication node N<SUB>j</SUB> has a fixed position linked to the system (1) and the node N<SUB>j</SUB> is formed to exchange data with radio tags ET<SUB>i</SUB> via a contactless connection, all of the nodes Nj being connected with a data concentrator C, by a wire connection.
