Connectionless obtainment of dynamic information over wireless transmission

An information handling device for transferring information from at least one instrument to an application running on a central device, comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a memory device that stores instructions executable by the processor to:
• set up a central protocol structure, wherein the establishing comprises creating a unique central protocol structure, wherein the central protocol structure is unique for a system comprising the at least one instrument and the application and is customized for a transfer of information between the at least one instrument to the application, wherein the creating comprises defining format for information transmitted utilizing the central protocol structure, wherein the defined format identifies what information is transmitted in each data packet of the central protocol structure and a location of each data packet within the central protocol structure;
• receive, at the application and over a short-range wireless communication channel information from the at least one instrument, wherein the information is contained within a broadcast packet and formatted, by the at least one instrument, per the central protocol structure, wherein the broadcast packet is broadcast regardless of whether the application received the broadcast packet;
• and
• perform, within the application, an action with respect to the information within the application, wherein the performing comprises deciphering, at the application, the information contained within the broadcast packet utilizing the format of the central protocol structure.

A product for transferring information from at least one instrument to an application, comprising:

• a storage device that stores code, the code being executable by a processor and comprising:
• code that sets up a central protocol structure, wherein the establishing comprises creating a unique central protocol structure, wherein the central protocol structure is unique for a system comprising the at least one instrument and the application and is customized for a transfer of information between the at least one instrument to the application, wherein the creating comprises defining a format for information transmitted utilizing the central protocol structure, wherein the defined format identifies what information is transmitted in each data packet of the central protocol structure and a location of each data packet within the central protocol structure;
• code that receives, at the application and over a wireless communication channel information from the at least one instrument, wherein the information is contained within a broadcast packet and formatted, by the at least one instrument, per the central protocol structure, wherein the broadcast packet is broadcast regardless of whether the application received the broadcast packet;
