A wireless transmitter for coupling to an actuation device and a method of producing a wireless transmitter are provided. The transmitter comprises a transmitter housing having a first top surface; a translational member located at the first top surface of the transmitter housing; a cam member located within the transmitter housing, the cam member arranged for rotation about a fixed point of the cam member, the cam member comprising a contact component for contacting the translational member, the cam member further comprising a member body extending between the contact component and the fixed point of the cam member; a power generator located within the transmitter housing for generating power to operate the transmitter; wherein the translational member is arranged to translate towards the cam member and to contact the contact component of the cam member on application of a mechanical force; and wherein the cam member is arranged to rotate about the fixed point such that the contact component is capable of rotating towards the power generator to activate the power generator, the rotating being upon contact of the translational member with the contact component of the cam member.

A method for addressing a slave device in a network system comprising a master device and a plurality of slave devices. The slave devices have a common default address in an unaddressed state and the master device and the plurality of slave devices are connected in chain via a power line and a communication line, wherein each slave device is indexed by an index greater than or equal to 1, the slave device of index 1 being connected to the master device, wherein, to address the slave device of index k, k being equal to or greater than 2, the method first instructs the slave device of index k&#x2212;1 to activate the power supply of the slave device of index k via the power line, and then, it sends, to the common default address on the communication line, a command to change the common default address of the slave device of index k to a unique address of index k. Therefore, at each iteration, there is only one unaddressed slave device in the network.
