Once the device has been added to OneVue, update its Name from its 12-character Device to its named installation location.


Installation - Smart-Sync Repeater Add a Mode
Upon first-power up at its installation location, a Smart-Sync Repeater enters Add a Mode as described below.

  1. Once powered on at its installation location, the Repeater continuously searches for an available Smart-Sync Bluetooth Network.

    It may take up to 15 minutes to authenticate and connect to an available Smart-Sync Bluetooth Network.

  2. Once it has authenticated to a Smart-Sync Bluetooth Network, it establishes a communication path either to another Smart-Sync
     device or directly to a Smart-Sync Bridge available within the network.
  3. Once connected, it receives UTC time.
       l   During its first connection to the Smart-Sync Bluetooth Network, its unique Smart-Sync Device ID is added to the network.

       l   When a Smart-Sync Bridge is in 8-hour deployment mode: within 30 minutes of receiving a new Smart-Sync Device ID, the
           Bridge connects to your facility's network and sends the new Device ID to OneVue.

       l   When a Smart-Sync Bridge is not in 8-hour deployment mode: the new Smart-Sync Device ID is added to your OneVue
           account within 24 hours to 7 days.




                                                                                                                            12


In summary, from the time a Smart-Sync Repeater is first powered on at its installation location and connects to a Smart-Sync
Bluetooth Network, it receives UTC time within 15 minutes. If a Smart-Sync Bridge is in a 8-hour deployment mode, the device is added
to your OneVue account within 30 minutes, and when not in a 8-hour deployment mode it may take up to 24 hours to 7 days for the
device to be added to your OneVue account.


Measure Bluetooth Signal Strength at Installation Location
To determine if a Smart-Sync device location has adequate signal strength, you can measure the Bluetooth signal strength at its
installation location.

Primex recommends using the nRF Connect for Mobile - allows you to scan and explore Bluetooth® low energy devices. nRF Connect
for Mobile is available for iOS and Android™ devices and can be downloaded from the App Store or Google Play.

   l   A Smart-Sync Bridge advertises as Bridge, Smart-Sync Clocks and Repeaters advertise as a PrimexClock. The device's 12-
       character Device ID is displayed to uniquely identify each device advertising.

   l   Smart-Sync Clock & Smart-Sync Repeater - the Bluetooth Radio Frequency (RF) signal is required to be -1 to -85 dBm at its
       installation location.

   l   Smart-Sync Bridge - the Bluetooth Radio Frequency (RF) signal is required to be -1 to -75 dBm at its installation location.


   Note:
   During a scan, it may take up to 10 minutes for a clock or repeater to advertise its strength.
