Eddystone Configuration

Eddystone Configuration

Eddystone menu allows to configure up to 4 slots for Eddystone frames. Each slot can be configured as Eddystone-UID, URL, TLM or EID (with the only limitation that you can configure maximum 1 EID frame).
By default, you will find Slot 1 configured as URL, with https://www.blueupbeacons, and other slots not configured.




You can configure each slot according to your needs.
For Eddystone-UID you need to specify NameSpace ID (10 bytes) and Instance ID (6 bytes).
For Eddystone-URL you need to specify URL address (URL scheme can be selected by pressing on the bold URL scheme section).
For Eddystone-EID, please read this article.
For all configured slots, you need to specify advertising interval and transmission power. Additionally you can modify default calibrated RSSI at 0 meter (according to Eddystone specifications), but please consider that modifying default value can affect proximity estimation (contact us before doing such modification).
If you do not need Eddystone-frame broadcast, you simply need to disable ("Not Set") all slots from Slot 1 to Slot 4.

         

In order to update beacon with modified Eddystone configuration you can:
- press option at the top right and select "Update beacon";
- press Back: you will be asked to update beacon with new configuration data.
