The RadBeacon™ app is the configuration utility for RadBeacon proximity beacons from Radius Networks that support Apple's iBeacon™ proximity services as well as other emerging proximity services. The RadBeacon app from Radius Networks requires an iOS iPhone, iPad or iPod touch running iOS 7.1 or higher and equipped with Bluetooth 4.0 capabilities. With the RadBeacon app you can scan for nearby configurable Radius Networks beacons. Once discovered, you can display each beacon's operating settings and make modifications to those settings. Scanning for RadBeacons ------------------------------ Scan for nearby configurable RadBeacons by swiping down on the RadBeacons table. Each beacon discovered is displayed with the following summary details - Beacon Name - Beacon Model - Firmware Version - Hardware ID - Battery Level Reviewing RadBeacon Settings ------------------------------------ Select any RadBeacon in the table to view it's detailed settings. The settings displayed include: _Summary_ - Beacon Name - Beacon Model - Firmware Version - Hardware ID - Battery Level _Modifiable Settings_ - Beacon Name - Beacon Type - Advertised Organizational Identifier [ UUID ] - Advertised Group Identifier [ Major ] - Advertised Unit Identifier [ Minor ] - Advertised Measured Power - Advertisement Rate - Transmit Power Updating RadBeacon Settings ----------------------------------- Change any of the modifiable settings. Press the Action Menu button and select Apply. Submit a valid PIN to update the settings for this beacon. Calibrating Measured Power --------------------------------- Press the Action Menu button and select Calibrate.

Update the measured power value with the results of your calibration activity and update your settings. Range Your Beacon ----------------------- Press the Action Menu button and select Range. Validate the accuracy of your beacon settings by quickly verifying the ranging behavior of your device in proximity to your configured beacon.

Submit a valid PIN to prevent connections from remote Bluetooth 4.0 devices to the beacon configuration service. The Lock feature is a security precaution to limit the possibility of third party manipulation of your beacons once they have been installed and configured. In order to re-enter configurable mode for a RadBeacon USB, remove and restore power to the device. In order to re-enter configurable mode for a RadBeacon Tag, remove the front cover and press the configuration push button switch near the coin cell battery.
