WASP User Manual    Revision  1 6           c  2012 North Pole Engineering  Inc     2 WASP User Manual    1 Introduction    WASP is a standalone unit providing a bridge for ANT  devices to communicate wirelessly through  Wi Fi networks  to other devices on the local network or over the Internet  Utilizing an NPE WiFi   IT  module  8 channel ANT  receiver  on board memory  power management circuitry and  rechargeable Li lon battery  WASP provides a data gateway for monitoring  recording and  analyzing ANT  data remotely     WASP connects ANT  devices to wireless networks for monitoring and data collection purposes   For example ANT  home scales  pulse oximeter monitors  and blood glucose monitors as well as  heart rate monitors and all other ANT enabled devices are all able to use this bridge module to  communicate their data to central monitoring stations via the WiFi network     WASP is capable of receiving data wirelessly  from all certified ANT  devices in the local area that  share the same ANT frequency  ANT  device date is encapsulated as standard TCP IP messages   allowing it to be routed through local networks   through the Internet or directly to any Wi Fi  connected device  WASP can be configured directly over the network through both TCP and UDP  protocols  WASP is also capable of sending data to any ANT radio in range that is capable of  receiving data packets     An Application Programmers Interface is available to OEM partners  allowing WASP integration  into

P is enabled it will request  an address from the DHCP server running on the device managing the Ad hoc network  If DHCP is  disabled  the WASP uses the configured Static IP address from the settings table     Create Ad hoc Non server Wireless Access Point   If WASP fails to join either the preferred network or an Ad hoc network  it creates its own Ad hoc  network  If DHCP is disabled then WASP creates an Ad hoc network using the configured static IP  address but without a DHCP server running  The default values are listed in Default settings  section     Create Ad hoc Server Wireless Access Point   If DHCP is enabled  then WASP will create an Ad hoc network using the default DHCP server static  IP address and starts a DHCP server  The DHCP server will run as a simple DHCP server   it does not  maintain a lease table  but simply assigns address sequentially starting with X X X 2  It can  provide up to eight addresses  The default values are listed in Default settings section     Special AdHoc DHCP Server Consideration    If the WASP acting as the DHCP server leaves the network  there is no longer a DHCP server for  the network  If another device tries to join this network it will not receive an IP address     Charging    WASP provides a mini USB port to connect to a powered USB port on a computer or using a USB   5V  wall transformer  This USB port is connected to the integrated Li ion battery charger  which  monitors the status of the battery and controls the charge state  O
