1 Mobile Badge BLE - App for Android or iOS
Phone / Tablet
The apps for both operating systems Android and iOS scans for nearby BLE devices and connects auto-
matically to TWN4 MultiTech BLE readers in the proximity of the mobile device. The maximum separation
between the reader and the mobile device across which a connection is allowed is adjustable via the "RSSI
field strength" bar. Once a connection is established, the app sends the unique physical properties of the
mobile phone / tablet to the reader so that a security code can be generated and forwarded to the device
connected to reader.
In the next stage the app transmits the identity credentials of the user associated with the mobile phone /
tablet hardware to the Elatec reader.
1.1 System Requirements
Elatec reader requirements:
- Elatec TWN4 MultiTech BLE reader
- Reader firmware with "Mobile Badge BLE" authentication functionality
The app supports Android 5.x OS or higher and iOS 10.x and higher. Ensure the following app permissions
are given:
- Bluetooth V4.x

the device connects to it. If authentication is achieved, the details are sent automatically to the periph-
ery.
Once the identification is complete, remove the phone / tablet from the reader to prevent the process from
starting again from the beginning.
Some Android phones do a waiting time till 10 seconds for the next possible connection. For that a idle
time is integrated in the app software for a further connection.
