Claim 15:
16. A method implemented by an operative set of processor executable instructions configured for execution by a processor, the method comprising:
determining if a tablet is connected to an infusion pump through a physical connection;
determining if the infusion pump is paired with another tablet;
interrupting a pairing between the another tablet and the infusion pump;
generating, using the infusion pump, a configuration file;
establishing a first communications link between the tablet and infusion pump only through the physical connection;
determine a version of an interface program and whether the version is the latest version;
updating, when the interface program on the tablet is not the latest version, the interface program to the latest version of the interface program on the tablet through the first communications link;
communicating the configuration file from the infusion pump to the tablet using the first communications link;
reading, by the tablet, the configuration file received from the infusion pump;
completing a pairing of a second communications link between the tablet and the infusion pump using only the first communication link by using the configuration file to wholly establish the second communications link between the tablet and the infusion pump;
communicating data from the infusion pump to the tablet using the second communications link, wherein the second communications link is a wireless link;
displaying a graphical user interface on a display of the infusion pump;
displaying a redundant graphical user interface on the tablet, the redundant graphical user interface being redundant to the graphical user interface of the infusion pump; and
