Quick Start Guide

Field Description
UUID The ExtremeLocation solutions configures twelve (12) unique regions for
identifying beacons. Each beacon must be assigned one of these twelve
regions. This unique value is used to facilitate the identification of a
beacon within multiple categories that are next to each other. Use the
drop-down list to select an appropriate region for the category.
We recommend that the beacons that are near each other be assigned
dierent UUID values. This will enable ExtremeLocation to locate the
reporting beacon. For more information, see the document Getting
Started with iBeacon.
Beacon Types Use this switch to configure the beacon's broadcast types. Select the
broadcast types from the following options:

Broadcast Mode ExtremeLocation supports two broadcast formats. When this value is set
to Open, the beacon broadcasts do not rotate the unique identifiers used
while broadcasting. When set to Private, the unique identifiers for the
beacons rotate periodically.
Business Hours Use this switch to set conditions where the beacons broadcast only
during specific times during the day. Use this option to conserve and
extend the beacon's battery life. When not enabled, the beacons
broadcast continually.
