1. At least one non-transitory machine readable storage medium having instructions embodied thereon, the instructions when executed by a wireless device perform the following:
- transmit a pairing signal from a wireless device within a pairing enclosure during a pairing procedure, wherein the pairing signal is attenuated by the pairing enclosure, through the pairing enclosure to a pairing signal receiver, wherein the pairing signal receiver is configured to detect a power level of the pairing signal; and
permit the pairing procedure to continue based on the power level of the pairing signal that is detected by the pairing signal receiver;
orterminate the pairing procedure based on the power level of the pairing signal that is detected by the pairing signal receiver;
wherein the pairing procedure includes pairing the wireless device in the pairing enclosure to a secondary device inside the pairing enclosure.

Abstract
Various embodiments of an invention for pairing a plurality of wireless devices using wireless communications is disclosed. A method for pairing a plurality of devices comprises attenuating a pairing signal emitted from a wireless device within a pairing enclosure during a pairing procedure. A power level of the pairing signal that is emitted through the pairing enclosure is received at a pairing signal receiver. The pairing procedure is permitted to continue when the power level of the pairing signal is less than a predetermined power level.
