Notes:
Both TSX freezers were registered on the UT IOT (Internet Of Things) network 01/19/2021. They were registered using Elizabeth’s EID, eak775. Both freezers were connected to WiFi and linked to ThermoFisher Connect on1/21/21.
In order to use the ThermoFisher Connect app, you first have to connect it with the ThermoFisher Cloud. The ThermoFisher Connect mobile app was connected with the ThermoFisher Cloud using my iPad. It gave my iPad an Instrument ID: 46129. My phone is also registered with the app.
