In a method for parameterising at least one device (), at least one environmental value () of the device is determined via at least one sensor and/or an automation component. It is checked whether parameters are allocated to the at least one environmental value in a parameter database (). If parameters are allocated to the at least one environmental value () in the parameter database (), the device () is parameterised with parameters from the parameter database (). If no parameters are allocated to the at least one environmental value () in the parameter database (), the device () is parameterised with new parameters. The new parameters are then allocated () to the at least one environmental value () in the parameter database ().

Method for parameterising at least one device

Sensor apparatus () is provided, comprising a receiving device () by way of which the sensor apparatus () is wirelessly suppliable with electrical energy, a transmission device () by way of which data are wirelessly transmittable, a sensitive device (), at least one data processing device () which is signal-operatively coupled to the sensitive device () and the transmission device () and which processes data of the sensitive device () and provides edited data as transmission data to the transmission device (), and a device () for an interruption-tolerant operation of the sensor apparatus () with respect to the electrical energy supply, wherein the device () for an interruption-tolerant operation is realized by hardware and/or software of the sensor apparatus ().
