Viewing BLE Scanned Data

The DEVICE | Access Points > Bluetooth LE page displays information about nearby Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) devices. You can control the display by selecting a single SonicWave or All Access Points from the Access Point drop-down menu at the top of the page.

The table that follows displays information scanned from nearby BLE devices. The columns provide the following information, if available:

Column Description
# Reference number for the table row.
Access Point Name Name of the access point (the SonicWave) scanning the BLE device.
Device Name Name of the BLE device.
MAC Address Unique hardware address of the device.
Vendor Device manufacturer.
RSSI Received signal strength indicator for the BLE device, expressed as a negative number (dB). Higher numbers (closer to zero) indicate stronger signals.
UUID

Proximity UUID, unique identifier of the BLE device. Exactly 36 hex characters and hyphens.

Must not be set to all zeros.
Major

The significant identity within the group of BLE devices. Valid values are 0 - 65535.

0x0000 = unset.
Minor

The secondary identity within the group of BLE devices. Valid values are 0 - 65535.

0x0000 = unset.
Power Power level of the BLE device in dBm. This is the measured power of the scanned devices, which is calculated by averaging multiple RSSI samples in a process corresponding to that defined by Apple.
