Abstract
A power tool and method for prioritized communication is disclosed. A power tool may include an electronic controller including a process and a memory, and a transceiver communicatively coupled to the electronic controller. The electronic controller assigns a first geographic area to a first prioritized set of communication protocols based on a prior successful transmission in the first geographic area using a first communication protocol, determines a power tool location of the power tool within the first geographic area, and identifies a first prioritized set of communication protocols corresponding to the power tool location. The first prioritized set of communication protocols may include two or more communication protocols in a prioritized sequence. Then, the electronic controller transmits, via the transceiver, a communication according to a first communication protocol of the first prioritized set of communication protocols. The first communication protocol may be first in the prioritized sequence.
