5. HBT01/ HBT02 Antenna Installation and Placement Notes
To maximise the range in every direction, the following considerations should be taken into account when situating the antenna in the luminaire:
When the antenna is mounted to a metallic backplane, such as a gear
tray, a cut-out opening should be made as large as possible
as shown in fig.2.
If possible, try to position the sensor as far away as possible from the
LED Driver or other strong sources of HF interference.

HBT01
The HBT01 contains both a HF microwave antenna and the bluetooth
transceiver module and are located within the device as per fig.1.

HBT02
The HBT02 contains only the bluetooth transceiver module and is
located in the same position as per fig.3. The same consideration to
mounting on metal gear trays is therefore also as per fig.2.

6. Basic Principle of Building the Hytronik Bluetooth Enabled Mesh Network
Device 1
Device 2
Nodes are added in the
mesh network and named,
for example, ‘Device 1’
and ‘Device 2’
Even though device 1 & 2 are
in range of the smart device,
they will be hidden in a search
for new devices.
Smart Phone to Device Range
Devices found within range of the smart device
will be listed in the device search. When the
devices are added and named, they will bind
and become part of the mesh network.

Notes:
The range for which a smart phone can communicate
with the switch points will vary from model to model
and is dependant on its capability.
Device placement will also effect the smart phone
communication range and may appear different for
each switch position.
Finally, other environmental factors (as above)
will influence the ultimate achievable range of
communication between smart phone and luminaire
device.
Device 1,2 and 3 are
all now in the mesh network
and will not be discoverable
under a new device search.
The mesh network is established and all
devices in the network will be accessible
in the devices screen,as long as the smart
device is in range of any node.
