System Requirements
The PL-485-BT can be used from various platforms, but in all cases, the
following is required:
•Prolon Focus Application (free - see below for details)
•Bluetooth 4.0 LE capable device (integrated or via dongle)
Minimum operating system for Bluetooth
•iOS 12
•Android 5.0 (Lollipop)
Package Contents
•PL-485-BT Converter
•USB Cable
•CAT5 Cable
Installing Prolon Focus Application
Obtain the free Prolon Focus App from the appropriate source:
•Windows: Prolon’s website: www.proloncontrols.com
•iOS: Apple App Store (Search for Prolon Focus)
•Android: Google Play Store (Search for Prolon Focus)
Connecting Using Bluetooth 4.0 LE
To communicate to the PL-485-BT over Bluetooth, you must rst pair
it with your device. The pairing process varies with the device you are
using. Please view the Hardware Guide at www.proloncontrols.com
for more details. The default pairing code is “000000”.
Bluetooth (PL-485-BT)
REV 6.0 / PL-QCK-MIX-EN 5
Connecting Over USB (Windows Only)
The PL-485-BT requires drivers on the computer for it to function. The
drivers are included along with the Prolon Focus Application. If your
computer still cannot locate the drivers, please direct it to manually
search in the Prolon installation folder, in the ‘Drivers’ subfolder.
Power & Charging
The PL-485-BT is equipped with a rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery. It
charges via the USB port. It is also equipped with an ON/OFF button.
The switch must be in the ON position for the converter to operate as
a communications device (Bluetooth or USB). When the converter is
not being used, switch to the OFF position to conserve battery life. The
converter’s battery can still be charged even when the switch is in the
OFF position.
Upon Power-Up, the POWER LED will be ORANGE for a brief period
of time (approx. 45 sec) while the battery level is being calculated
internally. After this period, the POWER LED will be:
•Blinking RED when USB unplugged
•Solid RED when USB plugged and charging
•Solid GREEN when USB plugged and the battery has been fully
charged
Connecting the RS485 Side
Connect the A (+) and B (-) screw terminals to the wires of appropriate
polarity on the RS485 bus, using appropriate RS485 cabling. Connect
the GND screw terminal to RS485 GND reference as needed.
Alternatively, the PL-485-BT is equipped with an RJ45 jack that carries
the same RS485 A (+), B (-) and GND signals among the eight pins
within the jack (see Figure below for pinout). This port is very practi-
REV 6.0 / PL-QCK-MIX-EN6
Bluetooth (PL-485-BT)
cal since it can be used to quickly connect to Prolon controllers that
are equipped with a similar RJ45 jack using a standard CAT5 cable
(included). This approach saves time since there is no need to cut and
strip wires.
Note: The RJ45 jack is NOT an ETHERNET port. The PL-485-BT does
NOT SUPPORT ETHERNET.
The RS485 TXD and RXD LEDs blink briey as bytes are being transmit-
ted or received respectively over the RS485 line, but do not indicate the
validity or comprehension of these bytes by the equipment.
The RS485 circuitry in the PL-485-BT is electrically isolated from the USB
circuitry, thereby avoiding any potentially hazardous GND loops with
your PC.
Battery Precautions
•Do not attempt to replace the battery. It is built-in and not
changeable.
•Charge your converter using a certied computer, powered hub
or power supply.
•Charge the battery in accordance with the instructions supplied
with this guide.
•Use only the charger cable that shipped with your product to
charge the battery.
