MANAGEMENT SYSTEM, MEASUREMENT DEVICE, INFORMATION TERMINAL, AND OPERATION PROGRAM FOR INFORMATION TERMINAL
The present invention provides a management system for facilitating and increasing the security of pairing between an information terminal and a measurement device, and provides a measurement device, an information terminal, and an operation program for the information terminal that can be used for the management system. A blood pressure gauge (10) acquires a character string, generates a hash value from the character string using a predetermined algorithm, and displays the character string on a display unit (15). Then, if the blood pressure gauge (10) receives the same information as the hash value from a smartphone (20) with which a near field communication-based connection has been established, the blood pressure gauge (10) exchanges with the smartphone (20) encryption information for near field communication and registers same. The smartphone (20) captures an image of the character string displayed on the display unit (15), acquires the character string from the captured image, generates a hash value from the acquired character string using the same algorithm as the predetermined algorithm, and transmits the generated hash value to the blood pressure gauge (10) with which a near field communication-based connection has been established.
