## Summary

The ‘Commission’ module uses all the features of the [https://rubiconwater.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/DC](https://rubiconwater.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/DC) bluetooth app with the addition of the capability to automatically add FerIT nodes and connected devices to:

1. Your LoRa network
2. Your FarmConnect property

## Pairing with a FerIT Device
