Use this tab to add BLE beacons to your presentation. 

Tip

To configure beacons that persist for all presentations, add the beacons during the player setup process.


Click the Add Beacon button to add a beacon to the presentation:

  • Name: Enter a name for the beacon.
  • Type: Use the dropdown list to select the beaconing mode/format:
    • iBeacon: A simple beaconing format
      • Automatically start with presentation: Check this box to activate the beacon when the presentation begins. You can use commands to enable or disable beacons while the presentation is running.
      • UUID: A string representation of a UUID, which can be in 16-bit, 32-bit, or 128-bit format. A 16-bit UUID must be exactly four hex digits with no punctuation; a 32-bit UUID must be exactly eight hex digits with no punctuation; and a 128-bit UUID must be punctuated exactly as follows: "cd7b6f81-f738-4cad-aebf-d2a2ea36d996".
      • Major: An integer specifying the 2-byte Major value (0 to 65535)
      • Minor: An integer specifying the 2-byte Minor value (0 to 65535)
      • TxPower: An integer value specifying the Tx power level in dBm at 0 meters. The default value is -19, which corresponds to a level of -60dBm at 1 meter. The recommended calibration practice is to measure at 1 meter and add 41: For example, -65dBm RSSI leads to a value of -24.
    • Eddystone URL: The Eddystone-URL format
      • Automatically start with presentation: Check this box to activate the beacon when the presentation begins. You can use commands to enable or disable beacons while the presentation is running.
      • URL: The URL to encapsulate in the advertisement packet. 
      • TxPower: An integer value specifying the Tx power level in dBm at 0 meters. The default value is -19, which corresponds to a level of -60dBm at 1 meter. The recommended calibration practice is to measure at 1 meter and add 41: For example, -65dBm RSSI leads to a value of -24.
    • Eddystone UID: The Eddystone-UID format
      • Automatically start with presentation: Check this box to activate the beacon when the presentation begins. You can use commands to enable or disable beacons while the presentation is running.
      • Namespace: A 6-byte value expressed as 12 hexadecimal digits
      • Instance: A 10-byte value expressed as 20 hexadecimal digits
      • TxPower: An integer value specifying the Tx power level in dBm at 0 meters. The default value is -19, which corresponds to a level of -60dBm at 1 meter. The recommended calibration practice is to measure at 1 meter and add 41: For example, -65dBm RSSI leads to a value of -24.
