HID® MOD001
Install Guide
Overview
This BEEKs™ BLE Module Install Guide covers the basics of the setup and provisioning of equipment with Bluzone cloud
account and project. This install guide is intended for technicians. The HID BEEKs Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) Module supports
transmission of data from wired sensors utilizing a variety of protocols, including UART, SPI, and I2C.
Additionally, the built-in 12-bit analog-to-digital converter provides support for analog output sensors. The BEEKs BLE Module
therefore enables custom solution development for a wide range of applications.
When combined with HID Global’s end-to-end IoT ecosystem, which includes BluFi™ BLE-to-WiFi gateways and the Bluzone™
cloud services, the BLE Module can be centrally managed remotely through the cloud to transfer new messages and firmware
updates. The unique design allows BEEKs BLE Module to broadcast reliably, even in densely populated WiFi environments.
The BLE radio enables the module to transmit the data from wired analog and digital sensors for a variety of applications. Bluzone
allows you to control the transmitting capabilities of the module.

3BLE Module – Sends data from wired sensors to BluFi.
Prerequisites
• Set up Bluzone account
• Download Bluzone mobile app
• Additional installation guides are available and can be
found at: https://hid.gl/HID-BluFi-installation
Best practices
• Maximum of 15 – 20 beacons per BluFi for best results
• Maximum 20 – 30 meters from beacon to BluFi for best
results (distance will decrease for increased interference/
blockages). For RTLS applications, the BEEKS Duress
Badge signal must be received by at least three BluFis in
the vicinity.
Network troubleshooting
• 2.4 GHz WiFi only
• HTTPS port 443 must be open
• DHCP required
• 1 Mbps upload speed required
• Captive WiFi portals not compatible
• Compatible certificate formats: .pem, .der
• Some networks may require adding the BluFi MAC
address to an allowlist

2.3 Bluzone mobile app setup
1. Download the Bluzone mobile app from Google Play or
the iOS App Store.
2. Login to your account with Bluzone credentials.
2.4 BEEKs BLE Module provisioning
1. Power on the module with a 3.6 - 30 VDC supply voltage
and place the module close to a BluFi (don’t install on
assets yet).
2. For each module, hold the mobile device close to
the module and select the device with highest signal
strength (swipe down to refresh list). Continue the steps
for each BEEKs module.
3. When prompted for a Template, select the template that
corresponds to your custom use-case.
4. Assign the module a name that coincides with the asset
on which it is installed.

3. BEEKs and BluFi installation
3.2 BLE Module
1. Place beacons near the desired assets (don’t install yet).
2. In Bluzone console, go to BluFi > {BluFi Name} >
Statistics and scroll down to the Scan Map.
3. Verify that each beacon sees at least one BluFi. (-75
dBm or higher is desired). Move any BluFi, if necessary.
3.3 BLE Module installation
1. Connect the wired sensor (for your use-case) to the BLE
Module.
2. Power on the BLE Module using 3.6 - 30 VDC power
supply.
3. (Optional) Connect external antenna to the U.FL coaxial
connector.
4. BLE Modules should be mounted with screws to rigid
standoffs using the two through-holes on the printed
