or InTempConnect users an

. The 

pass

key

 uses a proprieta

ry

 encr

yption algorithm

 that changes 

with every connection. 

InTempConnect Users 

Only InT

empConnect user

s b

elonging to the same 

InTempConnect account can connect to a logger once it is 

configured. Wh

en an InTempCon

nect user first configures a 

logger, it is lo

ck

e

d with an 

e

ncrypt

e

d passk

e

y

 that is 

automatically generated by the InTemp app. After the logger is 

confi

gure

d, only activ

e users asso

ciated with that

 account will 

be able to conn

e

ct to it. If a user belongs to a diff

erent account, 

that user will no

InTemp ap

essage. 

Administrators or users with 

the

InTemp App Only Users 

If you ar

e using the InTemp app 

only 

(not logging in as an 

InTempConn

ect user), you can create an

 

encrypted pa

ss

key for 

the logger that will 

b

e require

d

 

if

 another phone or ta

bl

et 

attempts to connect to it. This

 is

 recommended 

to ensure that 

a deployed lo

gge

r is not mistakenly stopped or 

p

urposely 

altered by othe

rs. 

To set a passkey

1.

 

Tap the Devices

 

icon and connect to the logger.

Tap Disconnect. 

Only the phone

 

or tablet used to set the p

a

sskey

 can then 

connect to the logger without entering a pass

k

e

y; all other 

mob

ile

 d

e

v

ices will

 b

e require

d to 

enter the p

assk

e

y

. For 

example, if you set the passkey for the logger with your tablet 

and then try to connect to the d

e

vice later with y

our phone, 

you will b

e require

d to 

enter the 

passk

e

y

 on the phone

 but not 

with your tablet

. Similarl

y

,

 if oth

e

rs attempt to connect to the 

logger with different devices, th

e

n they would al

so

 be required 

to enter the passkey. To reset 

passkey, conne

tap Set Logger 

Passk
