(I’m not using any of the UUIDs in this article) Tap the row for the beacon to see detail and config options. Your new beacon will appear in the list with its name, model, version, id, and battery status. Swipe down (pull down) on the app’s first screen to scan for nearby beacons that are in config mode. This indicates the Dot is in CONFIGURABLE mode (config mode, for short). With the Dot ON, press and hold the button for about 5 seconds until the GREEN led flashes twice. To turn off the Dot, click the button once and the RED led will flash, indicating the Dot is OFF. The GREEN led will flash once, indicating the Dot is ON. Turn on the Dot by clicking the top of it (lighting bolt symbol button) once. The first screen will be an empty list of beacons because you haven’t discovered any beacons yet. Get the RadBeacon Dot workingĭownload the RadBeacon app from the Apple app store. Radius Networks sells two versions of the Dot: Non-configurable ($11) and Configurable ($14). I chose RadBeacon’s “Dot” beacon over their “Chip” beacon because the Dot has a replaceable coin battery, CR2032 (a popular coin battery size).
#Radbeacon app Bluetooth
Beacon packets are emitted using Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). Even though Apple defined iBeacon, any device, eg. Eddystone and AltBeacon are other protocols. IBeacon is the protocol (packet format) the beacon will emit. I always have my iPhone with me, so tracking the phone will quickly locate me in a room or at the front door when I come home. The goal is to use beacons for room presence with Home Assistant smarthome automation.
