# i5 Wearable Bluetooth Beacon User Manual

## General Introduction

The [i5](https://www.lansitec.com/ar/منتجات/سوار-بلوتوث-i5-القابل-للارتداء/) beacon advertises BLE packages according to a fixed interval. It supports panic button.

When 3D acceleration is enabled, it can detect whether it is in motion. It switches between two advertising modes ( ******Periodic Mode****** and ***Autonomous Mode***) by changing the ******G-sensor Threshold****** value. It also supports detecting and advertising the battery level. In autonomous mode, it can advertise every 24 hours if it is not moved. 3D acceleration is not enabled by default. Please get in touch with Lansitec to use it.

The beacon continuously advertises ibeacon messages according to settings. The silicon gel bracelet and ip67 enclosure make it perfect for tracking patients and visitors for ensuring safety or monitoring timing.

## Function Description

### Button

The button can be used to turn on and off by long-pressing the beacon for 3 seconds.

When the panic button is enabled, the Major field's high bit (binary 1) signifies the panic state. The beacon advertises the status 10 times with the set Interval. For example, if the Major is 0x0010 and the Minor is F1BC. Major becomes 0x8010.

0x02 01 06 1A FF 4C 00 02 15 F2 A5 2D 43 E0 AB 48 9C B6 4C 4A 83 00 14 67 20 00 10 F1 BC B3 (panic button not pressed)

The panic button is enabled by default. Please get in touch with Lansitec if you do not need it.

### TX Power

The signal strength sent by the beacon. The default value 06 (0dBm)

| **Value Type** | **Value** | **[TX Power](https://www.lansitec.com/ar/blogs/تحسين-طاقة-الإرسال-لتتبع-إنترنت-الأشي/)**** (dBm)** |

| 03 | -12 |  |
| 04 | -8 |  |
| 05 | -4 |  |
| 06 | 0 |  |
| 07 | 4 |  |

### Advertise Interval

The Interval of beacon advertisement is 5s in default, and this means that the beacon advertises the advertising packet once every 5s. The maximum Advertisement interval is 10s.

Table 3: Advertise Interval

| **Value Type** | **Value** | **I****nterval**** (m****s)** |
| --- | --- | --- |
| **Hex** | 01000000 | 100 |
| 02000000 | 200 |  |
| 03000000 | 300 |  |
| 04000000 | 400 |  |
| 05000000 | 500 |  |
| …… | …… |  |
| 64000000 | 10,000 |  |

### G-sensor Threshold

The g-sensor threshold value is 0x00 by default, meaning that autonomous mode is disabled and the beacon advertises in the ******Periodic Mode.****** When the g-sensor threshold value is greater than or equal to 0x10, the beacon advertises in the ***Autonomous Mode***. The beacon is considered in motion when the accelerated speed is larger than the threshold. The default unit is 16mg, g-sensor threshold = value \* 16mg.

Table 4: G-sensor Threshold

| **Value Type** | **Value** | **Threshold (mg)** |
| --- | --- | --- |
| **Hex** | 00 | 00 means the periodic mode is enabled. |
| 01 ~ 0F | Reserved for future use. |  |
| 10 | 256 (0x10 = 16, 16x16mg = 256mg)***Autonomous Mode*** |  |
| 11 | 272(0x11 = 17, 17x16mg = 272mg) |  |
| 12 | 288 |  |
| 13 | 304 |  |
| …… | …… |  |
| 7F | 2032 |  |

### Advertise Mode

#### Periodic Mode

In the periodic mode, the beacon advertises the advertising packet at fixed intervals as configured until the battery power runs out.

#### **Autonomous**Mode

In the autonomous mode, the beacon only advertises when it is in motion. When the acceleration is larger than the g-sensor threshold, the beacon advertises with the ******Advertise****** ******Interval****** value for the duration of the ******Advert Time******.

For example, if the interval value is 5s and the advert time is 1min, the beacon will not advertise if it is stationary. When the acceleration is larger than the g-sensor threshold, the beacon will advertise once every 5s and keep advertising for 1 minute.

### Advert Time

The duration of the beacon advertisement is 0000 by default, and the maximum advertisement time is 65535s. This configuration only works in autonomous mode. If the beacon works in periodic mode, this configuration has no effect.

| **Value Type** | **Value** | **Time (****s)** |
| --- | --- | --- |
| **Hex** | 0000 | Broadcast all the time. |
| 0001 ~ 001D | Reserved for future use. |  |
| 001E | 30 |  |
| 001F | 31 |  |
| 0020 | 32 |  |
| …… | …… |  |
| FFFF | 65535 |  |

### Switch Configuration

The [i5](https://www.lansitec.com/ar/منتجات/سوار-بلوتوث-i5-القابل-للارتداء/) beacon has two switch functions: "Battery Level Advert" and "No Movement 24h Advert". The "Battery Level Advert" function determines whether the beacon advertises with the battery level. The "No Movement 24h Advert" function determines whether the beacon advertises every 24 hours if it is not moved.

Table 6: Switch Configuration

| **N****ame** | **Value** | **D****escription** |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Battery Level Advert | 00: disabled, 01: enabled,the default value is 0. | This configuration determines whether the beacon advertises the battery level. |
| No Movement 24h Advert | 00: disabled, 01: enabled,the default value is 0. | This configuration only works in autonomous mode, where the beacon advertises every 24 hours if it is not moved.In periodic mode, this configuration has no effect. |

## Advertising Feature

In ******Periodic Mode,******the beacon advertises a 30-byte packet with a fixed 5s ******Advertise Interval******. In ***Autonomous Mode***,******the beacon only advertises with the advertise interval value for the duration of the ******Advert Time****** when it is in motion and will not advertise when it is stationary.

The beacon advertising packet is as follows.

### Standard Advertising Packet

The beacon advertises a standard advertising packet when the battery level feature is not enabled.

******Note：******

*Regarding accuracy, several factors influence the accuracy of distance measurements with BLE [RSSI](https://www.lansitec.com/ar/blogs/تحديد-المواقع-الداخلية-باستخدام-مؤشر/).*

1. *Shadow effect: signals can be reflected by walls and glasses around many times during the transmission.**D**iffraction changes the signal path This results in receiving unstable signal strength.*
2. *There are many devices on 2.4G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Zigbee. The signal may overlap, making the received signal strength unstable.*
3. *Due to the semiconductor manufacturing limitation, [TX power](https://www.lansitec.com/ar/blogs/تحسين-طاقة-الإرسال-لتتبع-إنترنت-الأشي/) is not stable.*

*When using a beacon for positioning, please consider the following method for measuring the distance.*

1. *While the beacon is advertising, repeatedly sample the [RSSI](https://www.lansitec.com/ar/blogs/تحديد-المواقع-الداخلية-باستخدام-مؤشر/) at a 1-meter distance for a minimum of 10 seconds.*
2. *Discard the highest 10% of the [RSSI](https://www.lansitec.com/ar/blogs/تحديد-المواقع-الداخلية-باستخدام-مؤشر/) samples.*
3. *Discard the lowest 20% of the [RSSI](https://www.lansitec.com/ar/blogs/تحديد-المواقع-الداخلية-باستخدام-مؤشر/) samples.*
4. *Average the remaining samples to obtain the Measured Power value.*

*We recommend another two algorithms for calculating the distance and position:*

1. *Moving average algorithm, Lansitec document number 930-00171.*
2. *Position Calibration, Lansitec document number 930-00172.*
