Content

1 Introduction

This Bluetooth beacon features a high-performance, low-power Bluetooth chip and a large-capacity battery, delivering a service life of over 7 years under low-power broadcasting conditions. Its robust internal and external structural design leverages reliable engineering to enhance pressure resistance and environmental protection, making it ideal for maintenance-free deployments in demanding conditions. The beacon's signals can be detected by Bluetooth-enabled devices such as the SenseCAP T1000 Tracker, enabling accurate proximity detection for indoor positioning, asset tracking, and other location-based applications.

1.1 Features

Bluetooth® LE 5.0
Long battery life: More than 7 years (In default configuration)
Rugged and Durable: IP68 waterproof and IK08 impact-resistant for harsh conditions

1.2 BLE Positioning System

GPS has proven its ability to locate outdoors. Now, we also tend to move to indoor positioning, and Bluetooth beacons make indoor precise positioning possible. Combine with SenseCAP T1000 Tracker to build an indoor positioning solution.

SenseCAP T1000 is a compact LoRaWAN® tracker that utilizes GNSS/Wi-Fi/Bluetooth for precise location tracking. It's ideal for a variety of location-based applications.

Deploy Bluetooth beacons in your target area, the tracker receives the signal sent by the beacon, and the positioning accuracy is at the meter level (2-3 meters). It can realize functions such as asset tracking, route planning, reverse car search, etc., and can be integrated into applets and APPs.

3 Deployment

Screw installation instructions

According to the deployment needs, the road surface at the installation location should be cleaned and kept away from low-lying and easily flooded roads as much as possible. Try to avoid being crushed by wheels or other obstacles, and avoid being deployed at the rear of the vehicle, between vehicles, and under the entire vehicle to prevent the device signal from being affected.

Make installation positioning marks, use a suitable impact drill bit to drill holes on the surface to be installed, place the expansion plug first, and then use the stainless steel screws in the accessories to lock and fix the device.
