Abstract

A system can provide mechanisms for managing devices that lack certain user interfaces by operation of a separate device that includes a user interface. Such user interfaces, such as a display and/or a user input element can be operated on one device (e.g., a user interface device) to manage the operational parameters of a different device (e.g., a managed device). The user interface device can provide input and/or output features when the managed device is brought into a vicinity of the user interface device. The selected operational parameters can then be applied when the managed device is operated independently of the user interface device and/or with another device.
