The AVC6000 Series AccuValve® is offered with an optional Bluetooth module that provides
wireless connectivity between the AccuValve® and configuration PC equipped with Bluetooth
ver 4.2 or later. AVC6000’s that are Bluetooth enabled have a -W suffix on the end of the model
code which specifies the control module includes the optional Bluetooth module which is
required for wireless communication.
Minimum Requirements for PC or Tablet
- Windows 10 Operating System
- Bluetooth Version 4.2 or later
- AccuValve Insight Software Version 8.1 or later
Note: Bluetooth signals are influenced by environmental factors such as; distance
between devices, RF interference caused by other devices, objects in the area, and
building construction. Because the AccuValve is typically installed in locations that have
sheet metal duct work, metal trusses, ceiling grids, and concrete with metal mesh;
Accutrol recommends technicians carry a long-range Bluetooth transceiver such as the
AIRcable Host XR5 Bluetooth dongle which will provide superior performance over the
PC’s internal Bluetooth transceiver.
Note: Do not attempt to upgrade the device firmware over the Bluetooth connection.
To Connect to the AccuValve® with Bluetooth
Launch the AccuValve® Insight application and select “Locate BT Devices”. Only Bluetooth
enabled Accutrol devices within range will be discovered and listed by their TAG names.
Double-click on the appropriate device to connect.
