Abstract
A method for establishing a communication channel (17) between a predetermined number of selected devices (3;5). Each of the devices has its own identity. The establishing of the communication channel is done by a pairing via a server (1). Said devices have a pairing operational mode and a communication operational mode. The method comprises the steps of: —setting each of the devices in the pairing operational mode, —agreeing on the choice of a pairing signal (19a;19b), —selecting the agreed upon pairing signal (19a) on each of the devices, which devices transmit their identity and the agreed upon pairing signal (19a) to the server (1), —if the server (1) in a predetermined time interval determines that more than the predetermined number of selected devices have transmitted the agreed upon pairing signal (19a; 19b) than repeating the above second and third steps, wherein a next pairing signal is agreed upon, until the server (1) determines that only the predetermined number of selected devices have transmitted an identical sequence of pairing signals (19a;19b), —establishing the communication channel (17) between the devices by the server (1), and —setting each of the devices in the communication operational mode. The achieved communication channel is very secure. A system comprises a server (1) and a predetermined number of selected devices (3;5), wherein during use a communication channel (17) between the first device (3) and the second device (5) is established via the server (1) according to the method of the invention.

Important Notes on Latency of Status data
Please note there is up to 60 days of latency in this Status indicator for certain status conditions. You can obtain up-to-date Status indicator readings by ordering PAIR for the file.
An application with the status "Published" (which means it is pending) may be recently abandoned, but not yet updated to reflect its abandoned status. However, an application filed less than one year ago is unlikely to be abandoned.
A patent with the status "Granted" may be recently expired, but not yet updated to reflect its expired status. However, it is highly unlikely a patent less than 3.5 years old would be expired.
An application with the status "Abandoned" is almost always current, but there is a small chance it was recently revived and the status not yet updated.
Important Note on Priority Date data
This priority date is an estimated earliest priority date and is purely an estimation. This date should not be taken as legal conclusion. No representations are made as to the accuracy of the date listed. Please consult a legal professional before relying on this date.
