Abstract

Techniques are disclosed for enabling a first central device to connect with a medical device with an existing connection to a second central device by broadcasting a “central priority” advertisement packet that causes the second central device to discontinue attempts to connect with the medical device (for a period of time), granting the first central device the ability to establish communication with the medical device.
