Introduction / Overview

The B24 Bluetooth Telemetry range provides access to quality measurements on a mobile platform such as a

phone or tablet. The delivery mechanism is ‘Bluetooth Low Energy’ (Also known as ‘Bluetooth Smart’ or BLE)

which utilises the flexibility and availability of Bluetooth receivers while maintaining the low power requirements

of embedded systems. B24 is built upon two complimentary principles of BLE, broadcast advertising data which

enables users to deliver the same data to multiple receivers simultaneously and low power connections which can

be used in a point to point system. B24 is available in OEM bare board formats and with environmentally sealed

enclosure with integrated battery holder.

This manual provides details of using B24 modules with the free Android and iOS apps for mobiles phones and

tablets.

Advertising Operation

The advertising mode of operation enables B24 modules to broadcast measurement data to multiple locations

without retransmission. The advert is an operational mode within ‘Bluetooth Low Energy’ and facilitates the

delivery of data without a connection. This mode of operation is useful in ‘many to many’ and ‘one to many’ use

cases.

This mode is used by the free apps to display live data on their dashboards where one or many B24 modules can

supply live data to one or more Android or iOS tablets and phones.

Connected Operation

The connected operational mode enables Bluetooth Low Energy devices to connect directly to the B24 module. A

single mobile device can be connected to multiple B24 transmitter modules simultaneously. This mode has a dual

purpose as it may be used monitor data and configure the device. When it is used for the delivery of data the

application can register to receive notification updates when the status and engineering unit value changes. This

mode of operation is useful in ‘one to one’ and ‘many to one’ use cases.

This mode is used in the free apps to connect to an individual module for configuration.

B24 Telemetry Basic Principles

There are some basic radio settings and concepts that should be understood to effectively configure, deploy,

optimise and troubleshoot B24 telemetry systems.

Transmission Range

The flexibility of the B24 range is that the user may utilise their mobile phone rather than using a specific

handheld receiver or base station. This flexibility does mean that Applied Measurements has no control over

the quality of the receiver. This imparts a large variation in the transmission range capability of the module.

Sensitivity Range

The input sensitivity range is designed for bridge based sensors and is configurable between ±6 mV/V and ±48

mV/V. This flexibility allows us to provide solutions for a wider range of strain gauge types.

Data rate

The Bluetooth specification specifies the maximum rate at which advertisement information can be delivered. The

B24 module may be configured to deliver data in the range between 10 samples per second and 1 every 10

seconds.

Resolution

The noise free resolution of the B24-SSB is up to 16.5 bits. This is equivalent to 1 in 92000 counts.

Transmitter Module Modes of Operation

The B24 module disconnects the power from the load cell and sleeps the micro-controller in between

measurements. This improves the battery lifetime of the system a makes the most efficient use of the battery’s

energy. There are no automatic sleep or wake functions, the modules have been designed to be ‘set and forget’

so transmit all of the time.

Data Tag

The advertising packets transmitted by B24 modules are identified by their Data Tag. The Data Tag is a four

character hexadecimal identifier that will be either printed on the modules silver enclosure label, or in the case of

an OEM module, it is the last 4 characters of the modules hexadecimal serial number (Yellow).

The Data Tag can be changed by configuring the module.

Because multiple receivers, such as apps or custom software, may be configured to use data identified by certain

Data Tags, the ability to change them in a module means that it is very simple to replace a module without

reconfiguring multiple receivers.

B24 Toolkit App

The B24 Toolkit App is available for iOS (V10.0 and above) and Android (V5.0 and above) devices and is available

for free from the App Store and Google Play store.

Use the QR codes below to access the app in the store or tap the store banner if you are

viewing this document on your device.

Google Play Store

Apple App Store

This app requires access to the Bluetooth Services which are part of Location Services so

the user may need to grant permission for the app to access Location even though the app

does not use any location data.

The App allows the user to create multiple Projects. Each project can contain a list of defined Transmitter Sources

which are B24 modules.

Each project has a Dashboard which can be populated with display Tiles that use data from the Transmitter

Sources to represent values in different formats.

When in run mode the App uses the data from the B24 module to populate the dashboard Tiles in real time.

The App will also support one to one connections with the B24 modules to enable configuration and calibration.
