Introduction

iSPECI BLE adapter is a device that allows you to connect the elevator controllers, by the means of a “RS232/RS422 – Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) interface” to the mobile device / iSPECI of the field technicians.

The iSPECI BLE adapter has been developed to radically simplify connecting to elevator controllers using  the iSPECI application. No more cables that can break, no additional adapters to turn communication pins, it is a plug & play device. It is a Bluetooth BLE device with an approximate range of 10 meters.

Overview

The adapter contains the following:

• Bluetooth (BLE) interface 5.2 (see EFR32BG22 from Silicon Labs)
• RS232 interface with connector DB9 female
• RS422/485 interface with connector DB9 male
• Micro USB connector (5VDC) for battery charging
• RST button (reset button to be pressed in case the Bluetooth is not working)
• PWR button (ON/OFF)
• LEDs

How to use the Adapter

1. Click on the PWR button to switch on the device (blue LINK LED will flash)
2. Plug iSPECI BLE Adapter into the diagnostic serial interface on control PCB
3. Activate Bluetooth on your mobile device
4. Open iSPECI app on your mobile device, tap “Connect”, choose “Wireless connection” and select “iSPECI BLE Adapter” from the list
5. When done, click on the PWR button for 5 seconds to switch it off manually and unplug the adapter (in case the iSPECI BLE Adapter is unplugged from control without switching it off, then it will switch off automatically after 15 min. It is recommended to turn it off manually to save battery time)

Charge the Battery

The iSPECI BLE Adapter can be charged with the included (or any other) MicroUSB cable. A full battery charge will last for 8 hours of usage. A full recharge will take around 45 minutes. The battery has a rated capacity of 300mAh (minimal capacity > 280mAh) and after 300 charging cycles the capacity will have at least 70% of its initial capacity. Remarks: Once the battery is defect, the complete adapter has to be replaced; no possibility to replace the battery.

Mechanical Dimensions

Remarks: The label shown above is valid for the first released version, in case of modification on this adapter, then the Model version will change (at the moment the version is 1.0)
Important: The label has to be put on the adapter and also on the package.

The housing has to be at least UL94 HB.
The adapter has to be at least IP20.
