Using Infrared Red Port for OneWireless Devices
This section describes how the Infrared Red Port can be used to securely transmit Authenticating Keys
for OneWireless devices installed in the field.
The MCT404 model authenticates ISA100 wireless devices and supports Honeywell’s PIE tool to
manage UDA2182 analyzers and UDC Controllers.
Using the IrDA Port
Using the IrDA port, you can send and receive data between the terminal and other devices equipped
with infrared. This can include, but is not limited to, Windows Mobile information such as Contacts and
Tasks, as well as software upgrades.

Provisioning
Before the transmitter can be configured it must be unlocked with a security key so it can join the
network. Use the Provisioning Device Pocket PC software to receive security keys from the Key Server
manager, then aim the Pocket PC at the transmitter and transmit a key.
Provisioning Device
The provisioning device is used to provide security credentials to FDAPs and Field Devices (FD) so that
they may join the ISA100 network.
FDAPs and FDs require security credentials that the WDM verifies before they are allowed to join the
ISA100 network.
The provisioning device is used to provide the FDAPs and FDs with these security credentials via an IR
port.
