Description
The IS1001 BLE(Bluetooth LowEnergy) Data Logger is a datastoring accessory device intended
for use with IS1001, RM310 or FS1001A readers. The BLE Data Logger stores tag IDs and
diagnostics data it receives from the attached reader to its internal flash memory.
The BLE Data Logger incorporates a Real Time Clock and uses it to assign time/date stamp to
each tag ID it receives and stores. The incorporated capacitor keeps the clock powered when the
logger’s power is off. The BLE Data Logger also stores short versions of the attached IS1001 or
FS1001A reader status reports (status reports are not available for an RM310 reader).
The BLE Data Logger can store up to 1,024,000 tag IDs(with signal level and temperature
measurements, when applicable) and 55,296 status reports. The data is written into memory in
First-In-First-Out (FIFO) manner: if thememorybecomes full,the blockof oldest records is erased
to make room for the new ones.
The BLE Data Logger also has an option to transmit received tag IDs in real-time via its
communication ports. The logger offers two ways of communication with a PC:
•Wired connection: RS-232 serial interface.
•Wireless connection: Bluetooth interface.
The BLE Data Logger’s stored data can be downloaded via either of the communication ports.
These communication ports can also be used to establish a direct connection with the attached
reader to configure it or to update its firmware.
•Data Logger Status LEDs: indicate status of the BLE Data Logger:
oGreen “POWER” LED: indicates that power has been applied to the BLE Data Logger.
oYellow “MODE” LED: indicates bootloader mode code or error code:
▪Flashing once –bootloader has been entered for firmware update using BioTerm.
▪Flashing twice –bootloader has not found a valid firmware, waiting for re-
programming via RS-232 port.
▪Flashing three times –bootloader has detected firmware checksum error, waiting
for re-programming via RS-232 port.

▪Flashing four times –serial number has not been assigned. Bootloader is waiting
for a serial number to be assigned via RS-232 port. Cannot proceed to Bluetooth
initialization without a serial number assigned.
▪Flashing five times –unable to initialize Bluetooth module.
•Serial Number: Used to identify each specific BLE Data Logger.
•RS-232 Port: This port has two purposes:
oCan be used to connect the BLE Data Logger to a local or remote computer to
download the data that is stored in its internal flash memory or to collect the received
tag IDs transmitted in real-time.
oCan be configured to act as a communication port of the attached IS1001, RM310 or
FS1001A reader. This enables monitoring and configuring of the reader from either a
local or remote computer.
By default, the RS-232 port is set as the BLE Data Logger communication port.
•Bluetooth Module: Enables Bluetooth wireless connection with the BLE Data Logger.
This connection has the same purposes and operates the same way as the RS-232 port.
•Bluetooth Status LEDs: Indicate the status of the Bluetooth connection.
oBlue “LINK” LED:
▪Flashing slowly –ready to connect.
▪Steady on –connection established.
▪Flashing rapidly –data being transmitted or received.
oYellow “BT_STATUS” LED:
▪Flashing once –ready to connect.
▪Flashing twice –connection established.
▪Steady on –configuration mode (CPU enters this mode for a short time after
restart).
•IS1001 Status LEDs and Beeper: Indicate operational status of the attached IS1001
reader (not applicable when BLE Data Logger is attached to an RM310 or FS1001A
reader).

Collecting Data from BLE Data Logger
3 IS1001 BLE Data Logger User Manual
Collecting Data from BLE Data Logger
Stored data can be collected from the BLE Data Logger’s internal flash memory in two ways:
•Establishing the RS-232 port connection and downloading data to a PC.
•Establishing the Bluetooth connection and downloading data to a PC.
ASCII Protocol
ASCII protocol is used for communication between a BLE Data Logger and a PC. ASCII
(American Standard Code for Information Interchange) is a character-encoding scheme based on
the ordering of the English alphabet. A string of 7 binary digits represents each character. This is
the simplest communications protocol. It transmits only ASCII characters and uses ASCII control
codes. It implies little or no error checking. This protocol is supported by the BioTerm and BioStat
programs developed by Biomark and by most standard communications programs such as
Terminal, HyperTerminal, Tera Term Pro, ProComm, PuTTY, etc.
Biomark recommends using BioTerm program to securely monitor, maintain, and update a BLE
Data Logger. For more details refer to BioTerm and BioStat User Manual available at:
http://www.biomark.com/help/manuals___instructions/.
The BioTerm program is available for download at:
http://www.biomark.com/help/firmware___applications/.
Message Types and Formats
To help sort the data, all messages have an identifier that delineates their type:
•MSG: Used to define an informational message
•ALM: Used to define an alarm or error message
•TAG: Used to define a tag ID message
•INF: Used to define the beginning or end of multi-line informational messages (such as
reports, memory downloads, etc.)
MSG, ALM type messages have the following format:
<Identifier>: <Date> <Time> <Message Body>
TAG type messages have the following format:
<Identifier>: <Reader ID> <Date> <Time> <Message Body>
INF type messages contain multiple lines and have two lines with identifier delineating the
beginning and the end of the message.
Note: An asterisk (*) at the beginning of a message indicates that the message is being sent as
part of a memory download.
Establishing RS-232 Port connection and Downloading Data
Stored data can be downloaded from the internal flash memory using the RS-232 port connection:
1. Attach a DB-9 serial communication cable (male DB-9 connector; cable not supplied) to the
RS-232 port of the BLE Data Logger.
2. Attach the other end of the cable (female DB-9 connector) to a PC.
3. Start the BioTerm communication program.

4. In the Serial Port box, make sure that COMx is selected (where x is the port number assigned
to the computer’s RS-232 port or to USB port that has USB-to-Serial adapter connected to).
5. In the Baud Rate box, make sure 115200 is specified.
6. Make a serial port connection to the BLE Data Logger by clicking on the Open button.
7. To verify the connection between the computer and the BLE Data Logger, within BioTerm
Traffic window type ?and then press Enter. A list of logger’s available commands should be
displayed.
8. To save the downloaded data in a text file, configure the BioTerm utility program to act as a
data logger byselecting Tools > Enable Capture or byclicking onthe Capture On/Off button.
9. Type the MED command and then press Enter to download the entire content of the memory.
Note: The downloaded data will have a * symbol at the beginning of each line.

Establishing Bluetooth connection and Downloading Data
Stored data can be downloaded from the internal flash memory using the Bluetooth connection:
1. Start the BioTerm communication program.
2. Search for available devices by clicking on the Bluetooth Devices button within the main
window of the BioTerm utility.
The window will open where all discoverable Bluetooth devices appear. It might take up to a
minute for all the Bluetooth devices to appear in the list. The BLE Data Logger will appear in
the list as "MicroLogger.XXXX" where XXXX is the logger's serial number.
