use BLE. For Android and Windows devices this will automatically be selected when
connecting to the adapter but you can speed up the connection time if you have a BLE
adapter and you select this first. Note, a BLE adapter is an Apple/Android/Windows adapter
and has a square Bluetooth chip under the cap.
Use Bluetooth Classic 2.1: Select this to always connect to the adapter using Bluetooth
Classic 2.1. This will not be shown for Apple devices as all Apple devices use Bluetooth Low
Energy. For Android and Windows devices this will automatically be selected when
connecting to the adapter but you can speed up the connection time if you have a
Bluetooth Classic adapter and you select this first. Note, a Bluetooth Classic adapter is a
Android/Windows adapter has a rectangular Bluetooth chip under the cap.
Connect to Last Adapter: Selecting this will instruct the App to only connect to the
adapter it last connected to. This will prevent the App from accidently connecting to
another adapter that might be nearby.
Adapter Connection Attempts: Set this to the number of times you want the App to
attempt to connect to the Adapter. If your mobile device does not connect to the adapter,
try setting this to a value that allows for a consistent connection. The default is 5 attempts.
Adapter Reconnection Attempts: Set this to the number of times you want the App to
attempt to reconnect to the adapter after losing connection. The default is 5 attempts.
Reconnection Audio Alerts: Set this to the number of reconnection audio alerts. The
default is the number of Adapter Reconnection Attempts (see above).
Silent Reconnection: Selecting this will keep the App from showing any adapter
reconnect notifications and from playing the audio alert except if the reconnection fails after
the number of retries.
Bluetooth Recycle Attempt: Set this to the Connection Attempt number when Bluetooth
will be recycled (stopped and restarted). This may help with reconnecting the adapter but
will turn Bluetooth off and back on. The default is on the 2nd attempt. Note, this will not be
visible on Apple devices as it's not applicable since the App is not allowed to turn Bluetooth
off or on.
Adapter Discovery Timeout: Set this to the timeout value (in seconds) for Bluetooth to
discover the adapter. Increase this if you are in a crowded area and the App is not
connecting to the adapter. Setting this to 0 will cause the App to automatically set this.
Note, this will only be visible with an Apple/Android/Windows (BLE) adapter.
Adapter Connection Timeout: Set this to the timeout value (in seconds) for the App to
connect to the adapter. This should be set according to your mobile device's actual time it
takes to connect to the adapter. Setting this to 0 will cause the App to automatically set
this.
