APP.
If the function is enabled, the upper 4 bits of Major will be covered by
Battery Level in advertising data.
It will increase Beacon power consumption.

Double Advertise Mode
User can enable/ disable the Double Advertise Mode by Aroco Beacon Config APP.
If the function is enabled, beacon will advertise same data packet twice to
increase the data receiving stability.
It will increase Beacon power consumption.
BT4.2 Advertise Mode
Normal Advertise Mode with Bluetooth 4.2 for around 50 meters transmission
range.
User can choose to advertise data by Normal BT4.2 Advertise Mode, Long Range
(PHY Coded) Mode, or both Normal and Long Range Mode by Aroco Beacon Config
APP.
Long Range (PHY Coded) Mode
Advertise Mode with Bluetooth 5 for long range (around 200 meters) transmission range. It request more transmission time per data and increase Beacon power consumption.
Advertising Timeline in a different mode
Motion Detection
Users can enable/ disable the Motion Detection by Aroco Beacon Config APP.
If the function is enabled, beacon will monitor the motion detection alarm
from Accelerometer with the threshold and duration setting. Alternative UUID,
major and minor value will be reported instead of normal advertising.
