GENERAL INFORMATION

1.1 Device use

Escort i-5 Indicator (hereinafter - ‘Escort i-5’, ‘i-5’, ‘Indicator’, ‘Device’) is designed to

connect the wireless devices manufactured by Escort Monitoring Systems Group (hereinafter - ‘Escort

Group’) with GPS trackers/gateways and other compatible devices, to collect the data of the wireless

and wired devices by Escort Group and display it on its five seven-segment displays.

The wireless Escort BLE sensors can be paired with the i-5 via Bluetooth Low Energy. The

sensors’ readings (such as fuel level, temperature, humidity, angle readings, etc.) are transmitted via

the Bluetooth Low Energy interface and in accordance with the Escort BLE data communication

protocol.

Escort i-5 can poll (send data requests) external devices via the RS-485 and RS-232 interfaces

in accordance with the LLS data communication protocol in case there are no other devices that poll

the devices connected to the same RS-485 or RS-232 network. In other cases the Indicator can be

configured to ‘listen’ the communication between a polling device and polled devices (such as wired

sensors).

Escort i-5 can transmit the data it receives from Escort BLE sensors via Bluetooth Low Energy

interface to an external device once polled via the RS-485 or RS-232 interface.

In 2...5 ms

upon receiving a request from such external device, the i-5 transmits the data previously transmitted to

it by Escort BLE sensors in accordance with the LLS data communication protocol. Escort i-5 can

respond to the requests sent only to the RS-485 and RS-232 network addresses saved in its memory.
