HID Bluetooth Classic
Enables the RS6000 to communicate using Bluetooth HID profile to a host computer through Bluetooth Classic
radio. The RS6000 is capable of operating in Slave (discoverable) or Master mode.
HID Bluetooth Low Energy (Discoverable)
Enables the RS6000 to communicate using Bluetooth HID profile to a host computer through Bluetooth Low
Energy radio. The RS6000 operates in Slave (discoverable) mode when BT HID Low Energy is enabled.
Low Energy (LE) Bluetooth has a smaller RF footprint (bandwidth) than Classic Bluetooth. The smaller RF footprint
of LE Bluetooth significantly improves Wi-Fi co-existence. Due to its smaller RF bandwidth, LE Bluetooth is up to
seven times slower than Classic Bluetooth (0.27 Mbps versus 0.7-2.1 Mbps). Data intensive activities such as
firmware updates, can take significantly longer.
