Abstract
An HVAC system is assigned a network identification for subsequent use within a communication network upon receipt of a formatted signal containing the network identification. The HVAC system stores the network identification in nonvolatile memory. The HVAC system also preferably stores a verification image of the communicated network identification so that any reading back of the network identification can be validated through comparison with the stored verification image.
