Under the Locks and Devices list, all of the linked devices will show up with their respective Bluetooth signal level. Place the Bridge and lock in close proximity to ensure reliable Bluetooth communication between them.
Please refer to the table on page 8 for the maximum ‘lineof-sight’ distance between the Bridge and lock depending on the type of lock(s) you are using.
Please note that the actual range will be lower when there are obstacles between the Bridge and the lock as well as interference from other electronic devices.igloohome Bridge Smart Lock - Device Status

c Heartbeat
The Bridge will perform a “Heartbeat” automatically every 24 hours. The first heartbeat will be done at time of Bridge pairing. Subsequent heartbeats will happen at that time
every day as long as the Bridge has internet connectivity. The Heartbeat allows the Bridge to update its own status as well as the status of its linked devices. This will ensure that the WiFi status of the Bridge as well as the individual device status, battery level as well as the Bluetooth signal strength gets automatically updated.

Push Notifications

The Bridge enables near real-time push notifications to inform users about lock activities and status. These notifications can be enabled at the account level and will apply to all locks and devices that are linked to the Bridge.
Push Notifications will be sent out near real-time whenever a user unlocks a lock linked to the Bridge or when the lock’s battery is low. The igloohome App will also receive a
notification when the Bridge loses internet connectivity and when it resumes internet connectivity subsequently. Notifications for other activities or alerts may be added in the
future.
These notifications can be enabled or disabled in the [Account Settings] menu in the igloohome App.igloohome Bridge Smart Lock - device
