Copyright (C) 2020 - 2022 OPTEX CO., LTD.
If symptoms persist after following the troubleshooting step above, contact your installation company or service provider.
Symptom
Operation indicator does not
turn ON.
LINK-BT1 C will not pair with
a compatible sensor.
A compatible sensor is paired
with the LINK-BT1 C unit.
You walk into the
corresponding sensor
detection area, that is
responsible for triggering the
LINK-BT1 C output contact
relay, but the unit does not
operate correctly.
Cause
The power supply wires are improperly connected.
No Power
Power supplied my not meet specifications.
Bluetooth LE signal strength is poor.
The communication range has been exceeded.
The pairing procedures were not followed.
The maximum number of pair LINK-BT1 C has
been exceeded.
The relay output wiring is not correct.
Output contact type is incorrect.
The device to be triggered is not connected to power.
The LINK-BT1 C operation indicator is blinking
alternating purple and yellow. Pairing has been
lost between the LINK-BT1 C and the
compatible sensor.
The Bluetooth LE signal is poor.
Action
Verify power supply wires are connected to the power terminals.
Check main power sources for unit.
Power supply should be between 12 to 24 VAC ±10 % (50/60 Hz) / 12
to 30 VDC ±10 %.
Relocate the LINK-BT1 C away from any machinery that generates
electrical noise.
Move the LINK-BT1 C closer to the compatible sensor.
Follow the recommended pairing procedure.
Do not pair more than five LINK-BT1 C units to one compatible
sensor.
Connect to the output terminals correctly.
Verify that the correct relay logic was selected N.O./N.C.
Connect power to the device.
Disconnect and reconnect power to both the compatible sensor and
LINK-BT1 C. If the problem persists, reduce the distance between
the LINK-BT1 C and compatible sensor to improve signal strength.
Relocate the LINK-BT1 C away from any machinery that generates
electrical noise.
Be sure to check the operation.
■ Points regarding operation checks
This product uses Bluetooth LE wireless communication. This unit must accept any interference, which may cause a delay in recognition of the signal,
including interference that may cause undesired operation of this unit. The transmitting distance may be reduced by environment conditions and
mechanical noise.
After installation, check the operation of the system according to the following points.
• If there are shutters or windows nearby, does the system operate correctly regardless of whether shutters or windows are open or closed?
• Does the system operate correctly when machinery nearby is in operation?
• If a parking lot is nearby, does the system operate correctly regardless of whether vehicles are present or not?
• If vehicles, automatic transfer devices, or similar items pass by in the vicinity, does the system operate correctly when such items pass by?
Under normal operating conditions LINK-BT1 C signal may encounter interference, this unit must accept any interference.
