Devices
Get visibility into any Bluetooth device in seconds. Register your beacons, GPS trackers, and sensors on a Blecon network, and the system starts processing their signals immediately — calculating positions, generating events, and delivering data to your applications.
Registering devices
Devices must be registered on a network before the system processes their signals. You can register devices through:
- The Blecon Console — Add devices individually by entering their device ID.
- Scanning — Use the Blecon Agent to scan nearby devices and register them.
- The API — Register devices programmatically via the REST API.
For step-by-step instructions, see Register and scan devices.
Device IDs
Every device has a unique identifier. Blecon supports multiple ID formats depending on the device type:
- UUID — Standard UUID format (e.g.,
550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000) - iBeacon — UUID with major and minor values
- Bluetooth MAC — Hardware address format
- Eddystone — Google Eddystone UID format
See Supported device ID formats for the full list.
Device status
In the Console, each device shows:
- Last seen — When the device was last detected by a hotspot.
- Network — Which network the device belongs to.
- Position — The device's last known position (if positioning is enabled).
