RedBear Beacon Service UUID: B0702980-A295-A8AB-F734-031A98A512DE Device Information Service UUID: 180A There are two characteristics you should pay attention to. 1. UUID: 2A28, Software Revision String - this represents the software revision for the Beacon software within B1, the latest version is “20131128” 2. UUID: 38837046-FE96-4335-B751-D4826198F337, Device Name String - you can rename the broadcasting device name of your B1 Battery Service UUID: 180F - showing the remain battery life as a percentage - please noted that the Red LED light on B1 will keep flashing when battery level fall to 30% or below Firmware Upgrade Service UUID: E6775403-F0DD-40C4-87DB-95E755738AD1 - reserved for Over-The-Air firmware upgrade RedBear Beacon Service Under RedBear Beacon Service, there are seven Bluetooth Low Energy characteristics. 1. iBeacon UUID UUID: 0xB0702881-A295-A8AB-F734-031A98A512DE - a unique 16-bytes value in HEX for advertising 2. iBeacon Major identity ID UUID: 0xB0702882-A295-A8AB-F734-031A98A512DE - a 2-bytes value, ranging from 0 to 65535 (0xFFFF) 3. iBeacon Minor identity ID UUID: 0xB0702883-A295-A8AB-F734-031A98A512DE - a 2-bytes value, ranging from 0 to 65535 (0xFFFF) 4. iBeacon Measured Power UUID: 0xB0702884-A295-A8AB-F734-031A98A512DE - a 1-byte signed value, ranging from -100 to 0 - This is an average RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indication) of the beacon measured at approximately one meter from an iOS device. This is a reference value in order for iOS to determine the distance between an iOS device and a beacon. - Please refer to Apple’s AirLocate sample about how to obtain Measured Power for your iBeacon 5. LED Switch UUID: 0xB0702885-A295-A8AB-F734-031A98A512DE - a 1-byte value used to control the on-board green LED, either OFF (0x00) or ON (0x01) - default is ON 6. iBeacon Advertising Interval UUID: 0xB0702886-A295-A8AB-F734-031A98A512DE - a 2-bytes value, ranging from 100ms (0x0064) to 10000ms (0x2710) on a incremental of 5ms unit - default is 250ms - the time between each iBeacon signal broadcasted; shorter time will have better response time and accuracy, however this will increase the power consumption due to more broadcasting in the same period of time. 7. iBeacon Output Power UUID: 0xB0702887-A295-A8AB-F734-031A98A512DE - a 1-byte value, four available settings: -23dBm (0x00), -6dBm (0x01), 0dBm (0x02) or 4dBm (0x03) - default is 0dBm (*our beacon is optimized to run at 0dBm.) - the output power setting of the Texas Instruments CC254x IC; higher power should mean longer range and higher © 2014 RedBear.
