7.6.3.3 Bluetooth
The AWR250 always incorporates a Class1 Bluetooth module. The range is up to 80 meters in
‘line of sight’. Inside buildings or when any other obstacles are present, it will be less. Please note
that the range also depends on the Bluetooth partner. If the other device is only Class2, the range
is much lower. This especially applies to devices like smart phones.
There are several menu items for Bluetooth, which will be explained in this chapter.
The Bluetooth menu contains the items shown on the left

The Bluetooth Mode determines if the AWR250 should initiate the connection to another device
(Master Mode) or if other devices should be able to connect to the AWR250. Per default, Bluetooth

AWR250 should be the device initiating the connection (Master) or the other device (Slave).
Select the desired Bluetooth Mode using the / / /
keys and confirm with .
When the AWR250 is in Master Mode, it needs to know the address of the intended Bluetooth
partner

devices in range. Make sure the other device has Bluetooth activated, that it is
‘discoverable’ and
‘connectable’ and that it is in range. For smart phones, for example, it is normally required to
make them discoverable first, usually for a particular time. This can be done in the phones
Bluetooth settings. If this has been done, selec
