  • Updated
Follow

A Sync Bluetooth Bridge, equipped with Bluetooth® Low Energy (BLE), receives and sends data over the OneVue Sync Bluetooth mesh network, and connects to an Ethernet or Wi-Fi network to send data to and download settings from OneVue and obtain time from a NTP time source.

Power

AC power: 5V DC USB Mini B (5 pin) connector interface, 5 feet (1.5 meter) cable, Input: 100-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz, 0.4A, Output: 5V DC, 1.0A max

Optional AC power extension cable: USB power cable 6.5 feet (2 meter), Mini B (5 pin) M and Mini B (5 pin) F connector

Battery backup power: 3.0v Primex Lithium/Iron Disulfide Battery Pack or two AA 1.5V Energizer® Ultimate Lithium batteries. When solely operating on continuous battery-backup power, its estimated battery life is up to one (1) day.

Power over Ethernet (PoE): compliant with IEEE 802.3af standard and compatible with 802.3at standard

Bluetooth® Wireless Communication Protocol

Bluetooth® Low Energy (BLE) Wireless Technology, version 4.1

Bluetooth Range: up to 100 feet (30 meters)

Network Communication

Power over Ethernet (PoE) and Ethernet specifications

Applies to: OneVue Sense Temperature, Differential Pressure, Water Leak, and, Contact Closure Sensors, OneVue Sync Transmitters, Sync Bluetooth Bridge, Notify Bell Controller, and Notify InfoBoards.

  • Power over Ethernet (PoE): Compliant with IEEE 802.3af standard

Enclosure

Enclosure: ABS plastic

Dimension: 4.7" H x 3.7" W x 1.3" D (11.93 cm x 9.39 cm x 3.30 cm)

Weight: 0.3 lbs (136 gram) with 2 AA batteries

Display: Liquid crystal display (LCD), dimension: 0.75" H x 1.38" W (1.90 cm x 3.50 cm)

LED Status Indicator: green, yellow, red

Mounting: wall or surface-mount

Device may be cleaned with a cloth moistened with water or a common disinfectant. Be sure to test any cleaning solution on a small area before applying solution to entire device.

Operation

Ethernet or Wi-Fi network connection: Transmits Sync Bluetooth devices statuses to OneVue, downloads pending setting updates from OneVue, and connects to NTP Server to receive UTC time.

Sync Bluetooth mesh network connection: Sends OneVue setting updates and received UTC time to Sync Bluetooth clocks/repeaters and receives statuses from devices.

Alerts: visual LED and LCD display indicators

Check-In Interval: system defined

During deployment mode, the first 8 hours after a bridge is powered on, its operation is unique during this time period.

  • Bridge automatically connects to the facility's network at the 15th and 45th minute of each hour. During each connection, it obtains UTC time from a NTP Server and checks-in to OneVue to download pending setting changes.

  • Sync Bluetooth mesh network automatically builds at the 20th and 50th minute of each hour. After each build, bridge automatically checks-in to OneVue to send received Sync Bluetooth device data.
