Bluetooth
®
connection settings
Environmental factors (e.g. metal surfaces) will affect the reader's Bluetooth
®
performance.
The following Bluetooth
®
connection settings can be adjusted to improve the user's phone
performance when communicating with the reader.
These settings are adjusted in the Configuration App on the Reader's Properties tab.
Transmit Power
Increasing the Transmit Power will increase the readers Bluetooth® read range. Adjusting this
range will increase both the Door Connection and Local Arming ranges. The default value is
-26 dBm (decibel-milliwatts).
Door Connection Range
This is the range at which the customer’s Bluetooth® device will automatically connect to the
reader and grant access to the user if the user has access privilege to the area the door is
associated to. The default value is 45 dBm (decibel-milliwatts) and must always be less than
the value set for the local arming range.
Local Arming Range
This is the range within which the user can manually connect their Bluetooth® device to the
reader to arm or disarm their alarm system. The default value is 64 dBm (decibel-milliwatts).
