To modify the UUID select the UUID characteristic from the BMDware Configuration page and select the UUID text box. Once you have selected the text box an editor will appear. The editor can be used to modify the beacon UUID (see Figure 2). Figure 2: Beacon UUID editor page

The major number characteristic can be used to modify the major number. To modify the Major number select the major number characteristic, select the major number text box, and enter a new major number (see Figure 3). Figure 3: Major Number editor page The information to modify the Major Number using another application can be found in Table 3.

To enable or disable to the beacon select use the slide button. Once enabled, the beacon will start advertising after you exit the BMDware Configuration page. In the case of another application once the Beacon configuration service is disconnected, the beacon will being advertising. Figure 7 shows examples of the beacon enable characteristic.
