A method for connecting to a specific one of a plurality of uniquely identifiable computing devices (104a, 104b, 104c, 104d), the plurality of uniquely identifiable computing devices being readers of a physical access control system, the method comprising: scanning, with an administrative computing device, for wireless signals in wireless communication range of the administrative computing device; displaying, on the administrative computing device, a unique object associated with each wireless signal received from the plurality of uniquely identifiable computing devices (104a, 104b, 104c, 104d) detected during the scanning step; selecting one of the unique objects displayed on the administrative computing device; establishing a wireless connection between the administrative computing device and the uniquely identifiable computing device (104a, 104b, 104c, 104d) that produced the wireless signal associated with the selected unique object; the method further comprising: sending over the wireless connection, from the administrative computing device to the uniquely identifiable computing device (104a, 104b, 104c, 104d), an identification command to be executed by the uniquely identifiable computing device (104a, 104b, 104c, 104d), wherein the identification command, when executed, causes the uniquely identifiable computing device (104a, 104b, 104c, 104d) to produce an audible and/or visual output; determining based on the audible and/or visual output that the uniquely identifiable computing device (104a, 104b, 104c, 104d) that produced the audible and/or visual output corresponds to a targeted device; and after the uniquely identifiable computing device (104a, 104b, 104c, 104d) that produced the audible and/or visual output is determined to correspond to the targeted device, enabling the administrative computing device to perform an administrative task or function with the targeted device that includes at least one of installing firmware on the targeted device, and updating software or firmware of the targeted device. scanning, with an administrative computing device, for wireless signals in wireless communication range of the administrative computing device; displaying, on the administrative computing device, a unique object associated with each wireless signal received from the plurality of uniquely identifiable computing devices (104a, 104b, 104c, 104d) detected during the scanning step; selecting one of the unique objects displayed on the administrative computing device; establishing a wireless connection between the administrative computing device and the uniquely identifiable computing device (104a, 104b, 104c, 104d) that produced the wireless signal associated with the selected unique object; the method further comprising: sending over the wireless connection, from the administrative computing device to the uniquely identifiable computing device (104a, 104b, 104c, 104d), an identification command to be executed by the uniquely identifiable computing device (104a, 104b, 104c, 104d), wherein the identification command, when executed, causes the uniquely identifiable computing device (104a, 104b, 104c, 104d) to produce an audible and/or visual output; determining based on the audible and/or visual output that the uniquely identifiable computing device (104a, 104b, 104c, 104d) that produced the audible and/or visual output corresponds to a targeted device; and after the uniquely identifiable computing device (104a, 104b, 104c, 104d) that produced the audible and/or visual output is determined to correspond to the targeted device, enabling the administrative computing device to perform an administrative task or function with the targeted device that includes at least one of installing firmware on the targeted device, and updating software or firmware of the targeted device. sending over the wireless connection, from the administrative computing device to the uniquely identifiable computing device (104a, 104b, 104c, 104d), an identification command to be executed by the uniquely identifiable computing device (104a, 104b, 104c, 104d), wherein the identification command, when executed, causes the uniquely identifiable computing device (104a, 104b, 104c, 104d) to produce an audible and/or visual output; determining based on the audible and/or visual output that the uniquely identifiable computing device (104a, 104b, 104c, 104d) that produced the audible and/or visual output corresponds to a targeted device; and after the uniquely identifiable computing device (104a, 104b, 104c, 104d) that produced the audible and/or visual output is determined to correspond to the targeted device, enabling the administrative computing device to perform an administrative task or function with the targeted device that includes at least one of installing firmware on the targeted device, and updating software or firmware of the targeted device.
