How an Encryption Works
Encryption of the Vector Device(s) and Receiver(s) allows for the Vector Device(s) to communicate with the Vector Receiver(s) and OpenField Console during a live Activity. Both the Vector Receiver and Vector Devices will have the same Encryption associated with their OpenField Console Account. This allows for Data to flow freely from the Vector Devices to the Vector Receiver and then into the OpenField Console during a Live Activity.
Vector devices grab the Encryption from the account associated with the OpenField Console that is installed on their computer.
Steps to Setting Encryption
- Connect all Vector Devices to the Vector Dock.
- Turn the Dock on and ensure all Vector Devices are connected to PC. See How to Connect Vector Devices to the Computer guide for more information.
- Open the OpenField Console on the PC.
- Keep Vector Devices connected to PC until OpenField Console enters the main tile menu.
- Run a Sync. See the OpenField Sync guide for more information.
- The encryption has now been set for the Vector devices.
Note: Unplugging the devices too early can result in the devices not receiving the full encryption, and live data will not be seen in the OpenField Console.
