Adapters for communication between power tools

A system for tool communication, the system comprising:

• a first electronic tool that includes:
• a first motor,
• a first wireless communication hardware, and
• a first electronic controller including a first electronic processor that is communicatively coupled to a first memory, the first motor, and the first wireless communication hardware, wherein the first memory of the first electronic tool includes instructions that, when executed by the first electronic processor, cause the first electronic controller to:
• transmit a first control signal via the first wireless communication hardware;
• a second electronic tool that includes:
• a second motor,
• a second wireless communication hardware, and
• a second electronic controller including a second electronic processor that is communicatively coupled to a second memory, the second motor, and the second wireless communication hardware, wherein the second memory of the second electronic tool includes instructions that, when executed by the second electronic processor, cause the second electronic controller to:
• transmit a second control signal via the second wireless communication hardware;
• and
• a third electronic tool that includes:
• a third wireless communication hardware, and
• a third electronic controller including a third electronic processor that is communicatively coupled to a third memory and the third wireless communication hardware, wherein the third memory of the third electronic tool includes instructions that, when executed by the third electronic processor, cause the third electronic controller to:
• control, in response to receiving the first control signal from the first electronic tool via the third wireless communication hardware, the third electronic tool to perform a first control action, and
• control, in response to receiving the second control signal from the second electronic tool via the third wireless communication hardware, the third electronic tool to perform a second control action that is different from the first control action.

A method for controlling electronic tools, the method comprising:

• transmitting, from a first electronic tool including a first motor, a first wireless communication hardware, and a first electronic controller including a first electronic processor that is communicatively coupled to a first memory, a first control signal via the first wireless communication hardware;
• transmitting, from a second electronic tool including a second motor, a second wireless communication hardware, and a second electronic controller including a second electronic processor that is communicatively coupled to a second memory, a second control signal via the second wireless communication hardware;
• controlling, at a third electronic tool including a third wireless communication hardware and a third electronic controller including a third electronic processor that is communicatively coupled to a third memory and in response to receiving the first control signal from the first electronic tool via the third wireless communication hardware, the third electronic tool to perform a first control action;
• and
• controlling, at the third electronic tool and in response to receiving the second control signal from the second electronic tool via the third wireless communication hardware, the third electronic tool to perform a second control action that is different from the first control action.

A power tool system comprising:

• a first power tool that includes:
• a first motor,
• a first wireless communication hardware, and
• a first electronic controller including a first electronic processor that is electrically connected to a first memory, the first motor, and the first wireless communication hardware, wherein the first memory of the first power tool includes instructions that, when executed by the first electronic processor, cause the first electronic controller to:
• determine, using the first electronic controller, an operational parameter of the first power tool,
• transmit a control signal via the first wireless communication hardware based on the operational parameter, and
• transmit an operational data request signal via the first wireless communication hardware;
• and
• a second power tool that includes:
• a second wireless communication hardware, and
• a second electronic controller including a second electronic processor that is electrically connected to a second memory and the second wireless communication hardware, wherein the second memory of the second power tool includes instructions that, when executed by the second electronic processor, cause the second electronic controller to:
• control, in response to receiving the control signal based on the operational parameter of the first power tool via the second wireless communication hardware, the second power tool according to the operational parameter, and
• transmit, in response to receiving the operational data request signal and using the second wireless communication hardware, operational data of the second power tool to at least one of the first power tool and a personal mobile device, the operational data including a second operational parameter of the second power tool.
