9. An automated external defibrillator, comprising:
-
a computing device configured to determine deployment of the automated external defibrillator and determine discharge of the automated external defibrillator; and a communication unit configured to send, from the automated external defibrillator, a first text message upon deployment of the automated external defibrillator and send a second text message upon discharge of the automated external defibrillator. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A method comprising:
-
during configuration of an automated external defibrillator, storing a network passcode in a memory associated with the automated external defibrillator; detecting deployment of the automated external defibrillator; upon detection of deployment, establishing a connection with a secured wireless network by accessing stored passcode information for the secured wireless network; and sending one or more text messages, from the automated external defibrillator, via the secured wireless network. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18)

19. A method comprising:
-
performing, by a self-test unit in an automated external defibrillator, a self-test of the automated external defibrillator at regular time-based intervals; and sending, from the automated external defibrillator to a server, one or more text messages including information associated with results of the self-test.
