I am considering using Blynk for a project but need a little more information.
Is there a way for one user to be able to connect to multiple deices? The control board will be used in a medical device. The daily user of the device should be able to connect via Bluetooth using their smartphone and make adjustments to the device configuration. However, a medical practitioner will also need to be able to connect to the device when the patient makes a visit. So ideally, the medical practitioner would be able to connect to any of the devices.
The practitioner will not need to be connected to more than one device at the same time. And the patient would disconnect from the device before the practitioner connects.
Is there a way to do this with the current auth code system. I am very new to this product so I apologize if I am asking any obvious questions, and greatly appreciate any help given. Thanks!
The medical practitioner can connect to unlimited devices with cloned versions of the project but with a different token for each of the projects. Technically it is unlimited but I guess if you were talking hundreds of devices the Smartphone could run out of memory with so many projects.
I must issue a warning here. Connecting “cheap” non-medical grade devices to patients is NOT recommend. Especially with software like Blynk, because it’s not certified and/or checked out by an authority (nothing against Blynk of course), it’s more for tinkerers like us.
Besides that, there is a matter of security and patient confidentiality. You’d have to use both client and server server certificates and most hardware doesn’t do SSL, so the data from the patient will go unsecured. I wouldn’t like that in my hospital
In general this is possible. You can use few devices with few projects. As guys said before - that’s fine for prototyping, but for production it requires certifications.
