2.5 Communication
The communication with biosignalsplux devices is done via Bluetooth or USB. However,
the USB communication is used to download offline acquired data only, while Bluetooth
is used to configure the device, to acquire and transmit sensor signals in real-time to the
computer, and to download offline acquired data which is stored on the internal memory
of the biosignalsplux device.
2.5.1 Bluetooth
biosignalsplux uses Bluetooth Class II to communicate with the computer and to transmit
the acquired sensor data. Since most internal Bluetooth modules are not designed to
support high transfer rates as those are needed when acquiring and streaming signals
using biosignalsplux, we strongly recommend using the PLUX Bluetooth dongle (which
comes with your biosignalsplux kit) to prevent any communication issues or connection
losses. These dongles have been tested and verified by PLUX to work properly with any
biosignalsplux device.
The Bluetooth dongle can be found in our store if several dongles are needed (e.g. to use
biosignalsplux on several computers without having to change the Bluetooth dongle every
time another computer’s being used

).

Instructions on how to connect biosignalsplux via Bluetooth to the computer can be found
in the 7 Bluetooth Setup section.
If you’re experiencing a great number of connection loss events, reconnection problems,
missing samples or similar problems, your internal Bluetooth module might be being used
for data transmission or your Bluetooth dongle might be configured to use the wrong
Bluetooth stack. Instructions to set up the correct Bluetooth stack and to solve such
problems can be found in the 10.1 Bluetooth section of this manual
See the table on the following page for detailed Bluetooth specifications of the internal
Bluetooth module of biosignalsplux devices.
