WIRELESS OVERVIEW
Communicating with your Wireless Tool
Starrett Wireless Tools communicate using encryption, this prevents
outsiders from ‘listening in’ to the data being sent. The first time a
wireless tool is allowed to talk to a Gateway they establish a set of
security keys. Both sides remember the key and use it to reestablish
communications. This can occur when the tool is turned off or is
moved out of radio range. Once the tool is within range and turned
on, the Wireless Tool and the Gateway will use the security keys to
automatically resume communicating.
Establishing First Communications
Make sure your DSA 4.0 system is on and communicating with the
Gateway. Turn on the tool, and after a little while the tool will appear in
the DSA 4.0 application on the Gateway Tab, match the UID number on
the tool with the one in DSA 4.0. The Permissions column will be Red
and labeled “Blocked”. Click on the Blocked Button. The Button will
immediately turn Gray and display “Updating”. After a slight delay the
button will turn green and display Allowed. At this time the wireless tool
has a blank security key, and after a slight delay the Connection Status
column will change to Online and show Green. This means that they
have exchanged keys and successfully established a secure link.
