APx Bluetooth I/O Module for B Series: Specifications

69

BT

Bluetooth input/output module

specifications

with APx500 v5.0 or higher measurement software

as fitted in APx517, 52x, 555 and 58x B Series audio analyzers

NP0020.00044 rev 000

December, 2018

This illustration shows the Bluetooth Duo module, model 241.

These specifications cover the digital input and output functions of the Audio Precision Blue-

tooth Duo interface. 

Bluetooth

™ is a short-distance (a few meters) control, data, and audio communications wire-

less technology. Bluetooth uses low power, frequency-hopping radio in the 2.4 GHz band. 

Communication is two-way (for handshaking, metadata, etc); some profiles (HFP, for exam-

ple) support duplex audio (both directions simultaneously); some profiles (A2DP) support 

only simplex audio (one direction per connection). Audio Precision supports several audio-

specific Bluetooth profiles for audio test.

See acknowledgements on the copyright page at the front of the booklet.

Bluetooth specifications begin on the next page.
