Abstract

Disclosed is a method of gathering data from a wireless data device that is not connected to the internet using a mobile device like a phone, laptop, or tablet. The wireless data device signals an device monitoring application on the smartphone to connect. The device monitoring application and the wireless data device trade passwords to establish a secure wireless connection. The data is sent from the wireless data device to the smartphone and stored in memory. The device monitoring application connects wirelessly to the internet through a cell tower. If cell service is not available, the device monitoring application waits till cell service is available to connect to the internet. The device monitoring application on the smartphone establishes a secure connection to a server located on the internet and sends the data to an device monitoring application executing on the server.
