Specifications
The FireBoard uses Bluetooth 4.0 (BLE). The official Bluetooth 4.0 spec provides very detailed information about the capabilities of the protocol.
FireBoard Labs has performed field testing, resulting in the following findings:
- Line of sight range: ~200-300ft - This has been tested unofficially, but we have generally seen the FireBoard retain connections with a clear line of sight at this distance range.
- Obstructed range: ~60-100ft - This was tested with multiple walls, surfaces, or objects interfering with direct line of sight.
FireBoard requires that your mobile device is equipped with Bluetooth 4.0+ hardware and runs either iOS or Android. To use FireBoard on your Apple product, make sure your device is one of the following, with iOS11 (watch OS5.2) or later:
- iPhone 4s
- iPad (3rd generation)
- iPad mini
- iPod touch (5th generation)
To use your FireBoard on an Android device, make sure your device is an Android 5.0 or later and is equipped with a Bluetooth 4.0+ radio.
