The optional AIRcable Bluetooth transmitter connects to the base unit using the
USB cable (provided). Plug one end of the USB cable into the transmitter and
the other end into the base unit. The antenna connects to the RP-SMA antenna
jack on the transmitter. Power is provided to the transmitter over the USB cable
and no other power connection is required for the transmitter.
Cell Phones
Customers will typically use a cell phone to download the BlueFlyers’ electronic
advertisement. The functionality provided by cell phones may be limited by the
phones manufacturer or by the cellular service provider. Some Bluetooth
enabled phones will only accept virtual business cards or vCards. Other phones
will accept audio files also, but not images. Some camera phones do not allow
the owner to transfer pictures over Bluetooth to their computer. Capabilities will
vary between cell phones.
Other Devices
Many laptops and PDAs are produced with built-in Bluetooth. These devices can
take advantage of more media formats than the typical cell phone. Customers
with these devices can also use the BlueFlyers’ FTP transfer mode (described in
the BlueFlyers Modes of Operation section below) if they desire.
FM Transmitter
The FM broadcast can be used to transmit instructions on how to access the
BlueFlyers unit, details about a daily special, or music. Multiple MP3 files can be
put on the BlueFlyers unit for FM transmission and the unit will rotate through
them.
Software
A Windows application, BlueFlyers Wizard, is provided to create file sets for a
marketing campaign, configure the BlueFlyers unit, and analyze logs. A free
audio recording application, Audacity, is provided to aid in creating MP3 audio
files for FM transmission.
BlueFlyers Modes of Operation
The BlueFlyers Wizard allows the selection of BlueFlyers’ operating mode.
Multiple modes may be enabled simultaneously; they are not exclusive.
