Abstract
A method includes installing a wireless sensor in a specified operational environment, wherein the wireless sensor is pre-validated for use in the specified operational environment. The method also includes operating the wireless sensor to obtain information. The method further includes wirelessly transmitting data, where the data includes the obtained information and/or information based on the obtained information. The specified operational environment could represent a pharmaceutical manufacturing environment. The method could also include receiving one or more network settings at the wireless sensor, where the data is wirelessly transmitted using the one or more network settings. The receipt of the one or more network settings may not alter the pre-validation of the wireless sensor to operate in the specified operational environment.
