Beacon management 

Manage iAssign beacons. Read a beacon to verify its current settings and view its serial number. You can 
also edit beacon settings, including Configuration, Range,

 

Beacon Mode, and Access Level. 

Note: 

Beacon management with the iAssign app works only with actual iAssign beacons (P/N 18109491). An RGX Gateway 

acting as a beacon broadcasts its site identifier, range, and access level when this data has been set, but this data can only be 
configured via iNet. See the 

RGX Gateway Product Manual

 (P/N 17158071) for more information.
