smart phone) with the Ekip Connect software installed (see previous paragraph).
IMPORTANT: the Ekip Bluetooth module can be connected to the trip units also when
in service.
NOTE: Ekip Bluetooth powers the trip unit only. Therefore, in order to set and to display
information on any electronic accessories connected to the terminal box, these must be
powered by an Ekip Supply module (see page 177).
It draws its power from a rechargeable lithium-polymer battery delivered with the unit. It is connected directly
to the front test connector of the trip unit, and allows a trip unit without auxiliary voltage to be powered.
It is switched on by pressing the power button on the side, and is equipped with two LEDs:
• The first LED in green when the device is on and the battery charged, red with the device turned on and
low battery.
• The second LED flashing blue with active Bluetooth communication.
NOTE: the red flashing LED indicates that the battery is completely drained, an error condition,
or malfunction of the module.
The battery charging is performed by connecting the module to the USB ports of a PC with the supplied
cable. Connection to a PC automatically switches the module on, and charging in progress is indicated by
the flashing green LED, with increasing frequency as the level of charging rises. Completion of charging is
indicated by the green LED on (fixed).
NOTE: during recharging, the module must be kept energized.
