Unlock / Lock beacon

Unlock / Lock beacon

By default, beacon is provided with Lock state enabled: this means that you need to insert password to connect to the beacon and read/write characteristics in GATT service. Default password is blueup.

When you log-in in Lock mode (password requested for connection), in the top right menu "More" in Global Settings, you will find two options:
- Unlock and Disconnect: with this option, beacon will be updated in Unlock mode, e.g., no password required to connect and modify it. We strongly suggest to use this option only for internal test and development activities;
- Change Lock and Disconnect: with this option, you can change the Lock password. For maximum security, you will be asked to insert old password and twice new password.

When you log-in in Unlock mode (no password required for connection), in the top right menu in Global Settings, you will find one option:
- Lock and Disconnect: with this option, beacon will be updated in Lock mode, e.g., password will be required for successive connection. For maximum security, you will be asked to insert twice the password.
