This document specifies the technical specifications of the Bluetooth Low Energy Remote Control Unit based on the A624KO platform, which complies with Bluetooth V5.0 Low Energy Specifications. The unit is powered by 2x AAA Alkaline batteries with power consumption as low as 10uA in Sleep mode when it is not in use. RC can be woken up from Sleep mode and re-connected with the Host device(Amazon Fire TV, OS 7.0) within 500ms when any of the RC keys are pressed.
The following basic functions are supported in this Remote Control (RC) Unit:

• RC Keys(BLE+IR)
• Voice Control over BLE
• LED behavior
• Device Control System(DCS)
• Firmware OTA (Firmware upgraded Over the Air)

Power Supply: 
2 x AAA Alkaline Batteries

Operating Conditions:

• Operating Supply Voltage Range: 3.0V, 0.1A
• Operating Temperature Range: -5℃ ~ +40℃
• Humidity：45% ~ 85%

Bluetooth Profile:
HID over GATT Profile (HOGP)

RF Frequency Band:
2.4GHz ISM Band (2400MHz ~ 2483.5MHz, 40 channels@ 2MHz step).

Bluetooth Specification:
Comply with Bluetooth V4.2 Low Energy(BLE) Specifications.

Pairing:
The BLE RC needs to be paired with Host Device (Amazon Fire TV) before it can be used. The details pairing procedures can be found in Section 2.11.

Operation modes:
RC can enter either Normal Operation Mode or Sleep Mode.

• Under Normal Operation Mode, the RC is connected to the Host Device and sends HID Key codes when a key or Voice Control operation is triggered.
• Under Sleep mode, as soon as the any of RC keys is pressed, the RC shall be waken up and re-connected with Host device within 500ms.

RC Operation

Demo mode and User mode

1. The remote should by default work in Demo mode by default. IR is working, but the user cannot use the voice button.
2. If the user selects the “Demo Mode” from the first page of TV host, the remote will stay with IR mode. 7.1.3 If the user selects the “Home Mode”, if the remote is paired already, it will gets into the WIFI configuration directly. Otherwise, the user needs press “Home” key once or “Home” key for 9 seconds depends on the state to pair.
   The Power key will follow the IR protocol when the TV is in ho;;e mode, it will always send the IR code. 7.1.4 Once it is paired, the host will get into the WIFI settings page.

Pair
Press the Home button for 9 seconds, release the button, and the remote control begins to send a broadcast. After pairing with the host, the remote control should be able to control the host.

BTW:

• When you do the pairing, make sure that the host is turned on, and it is in pairing mode, and make the remote control close the host as close as possible.
• If the host is not paired with the host within 1 minute, please check and confirm that the host side is in pairing mode. After confirmation, repeat the A pairing operation.

Unpair
Press the Left+ Back+Option button at the same time for 12 seconds, release the button, the remote clears the existing pairing information and begins to send a pair broadcast and enters into demo mode.

Voice
After pressing the voice button, the remote controller begins to transmit the voice. (When using the voice function, you should try to keep the remote control’s MIC close to the sound source.)
