4. DEVICE OPERATION
4.1. First steps
To begin using the communication module, first switch it on.
Press and hold the On/Off/Bluetooth selector button (3) for 1
second to do this. The communication module will be on after
all three LEDs blink once.
4.2. Communication module powered on
The RF receiver is active when the green LED (5) is on. Each
RF data frame successfully received via Wireless M-Bus is
indicated by the same LED switching off for a brief moment.
4.3. Battery level
The battery level is indicated by the red LED (4) and directly
proportional to the red LED light time in 1-second long cycles.
4.4. Bluetooth interface
Connecting a mobile terminal to the communication module
requires a standard Bluetooth pairing procedure:
1. Keep the Bluetooth-enabled mobile terminal within 10 m of
the APT-VERTI-1 communication module.
2. Switch on the APT-VERTI-1 Bluetooth interface. Briefly
depress the On/Off/Bluetooth selector button (3). The blue
LED (6) will flash when the Bluetooth interface is on.
3. Operate the mobile terminal menu to pair the device with
the communication module. If unable to pair, see the mobile
terminal operating manual. The default Bluetooth PIN is
"0000".
The blue LED (6) will stay on steadily when the mobile terminal
is paired with the communication module.
