RF telemetry operates:
 Using the MICS band (402-405 MHz)
 At 200 kilobits/s or lower
 Over a short range (less than 2.5 meters in normal use)
Bluetooth
® Low Energy wireless communication operates:
 At 2.402 to 2.4835 GHz at 1 megabits/s or lower
 Over a short range (within 2 meters in normal use)
During use, the Merlin 2 PCS inductive telemetry wand displays a signal strength indicator to help
clinicians optimize telemetry wand placement. The transmitter automatically monitors and
recovers from most communication errors, including data integrity errors and excessive latency. If
wireless Quality of Service (QoS) is inadequate, the programmer automatically switches to
inductive telemetry.
