Enabling or Disabling the Wireless Communication
To close the connection with an OX1 from a smart device:
1. From the measurements list or the measurement details page, open
the three-dot menu.
2. Tap Disconnect from OX1.
The smart device is no longer connected to the OX1 and you are ready to
connect it to another unit.
Enabling or Disabling the Wireless
Communication
The interactions between your unit and a smart device are accomplished
using the Bluetooth
®
technology.
The interactions between your unit and the cloud server as well as the
EXFO update server (to retrieve firmware and software updates), are
accomplished using a connection to a wireless network.
By default, the Bluetooth
®
communication is enabled on your unit, but the
Wi-Fi is not.
You can enable or disable the Bluetooth
®
communication from your unit
only, and the Wi-Fi communication both from your unit and from the smart
device (Optical Explorer tool in the TestFlow mobile application).
If you do not need to connect to a wireless network for a certain period of
time, you may wish to disable the Wi-Fi communication to save battery
power.
