4. Operating Instructions
Once the FSC-BT1026D module is correctly integrated and powered, it can be operated via its host controller or through direct commands, depending on the firmware configuration.
4.1 Bluetooth Pairing
- Power On: Ensure the module and its host device are powered on.
- Discovery Mode: The module typically enters discovery mode automatically or can be commanded to do so by the host.
- Scan on Host Device: On your smartphone, tablet, or other Bluetooth-enabled device, scan for available Bluetooth devices.
- Select Module: Select the FSC-BT1026D (or its configured name) from the list of discovered devices.
- Pair: Confirm pairing if prompted. A successful connection will be indicated by the module's status LED or host feedback.
4.2 Audio Streaming
After successful pairing, audio can be streamed from your connected device to the module. The module will process the audio and output it through its configured audio interface.

4.3 Data Communication
For applications requiring data communication (e.g., SPP, GATT profiles), the module can exchange data with the connected device via its serial interfaces (UART, I²C/SPI). Refer to the programming guide for specific commands and protocols.
5. Maintenance
The FSC-BT1026D module is designed for long-term reliability. Minimal maintenance is required.
- Cleaning: If necessary, gently clean the module with a dry, soft cloth. Avoid using liquids or harsh chemicals.
- Storage: Store the module in a dry, anti-static environment, away from extreme temperatures and direct sunlight.
- Handling: Always handle the module by its edges to avoid damaging components or introducing electrostatic discharge.
6. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with the FSC-BT1026D module, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps.
6.1 No Power
- Verify that the power supply is correctly connected and providing the specified voltage.
- Check for any short circuits or incorrect wiring.
6.2 Cannot Pair with Device
- Ensure the module is in discovery/pairing mode.
- Check that Bluetooth is enabled on your host device.
- Move the host device closer to the module to rule out range issues.
- Try restarting both the module (or its host system) and the pairing device.
- Clear previously paired devices from your host device's Bluetooth settings.
6.3 No Audio Output
- Confirm that the module is successfully paired and connected to an audio source.
- Check the audio connections from the module to your amplifier/speakers.
- Ensure the volume on both the source device and the output system is not muted or set too low.
- Verify that the correct audio profile (e.g., A2DP) is active.
6.4 Poor Connection Quality
- Reduce the distance between the module and the connected device.
- Remove any obstacles (especially metal) between the devices.
- Minimize interference from other 2.4 GHz wireless devices (Wi-Fi, other Bluetooth devices).
- Ensure the module's antenna area is unobstructed.
