Bluetooth adapter
The PL-485-BT provides either a Bluetooth wireless connection or a wired USB connection for Prolon’s configuration software tools. Apple® and Android® tablets or smartphones may connect, view and configure a Prolon control system via Bluetooth 4.0 using Prolon’s free Focus applications. Windows® computers may use the PL-485-BT as a wired USB to RS485 converter for connection using Prolon’s Focus software. The PL-485-BT is the ideal tool for contractors and end users due to its simplicity and ease of use; it may be used as a portable, battery-powered tool, or it can be installed on site and powered via USB for permanent, local wireless access.
