How do I know the dosimeter settings I set up on my smart device were sent to the dosimeter?
If the dosimeter fails to receive any BLE command, Edge dB will report the first command that failed in a popup. Note that the “Send Config” button will send all of the user’s settings from the four tabs of the Setup page. In the Misc-Setup page, the “Set Date-Time” and “Set Identity” buttons send only the date-time and identity, respectively.
How does the Edge 4+ dosimeter connect to my tablet or phone?
The connection is made through Bluetooth® technology. Make sure Bluetooth is turned on in your mobile device settings. When Edge dB is open, it will automatically detect dosimeters that are within the connection range. Select the dosimeter in the list you want to connect to. The distance range for Bluetooth connection is up to 80 feet (25 meters) in a non-obstructed area that is free of frequency interference.
Is the Bluetooth connection between my smart device and the dosimeter private?
Other smart devices with the Edge dB App installed and within Bluetooth connection range (80 feet, 25 meters) will be able to view and connect to the Edge 4+ dosimeter.
What devices does the Edge dB App for the Edge 4+ Noise Dosimeter work with and how do I download it?
Edge dB will work with tablets and smart phones running Apple® iOS 10.0 or newer or Android™ 4.3 or newer. Edge dB is available to download free of charge from Apple’s App Store and Google Play by searching for “Edge dB”.

Why is the dosimeter not showing up in Edge dB?
- Verify Bluetooth is turned on.
- Make sure you are in range for the Bluetooth signal to establish communications between the dosimeter and your smart device. Try moving closer to the dosimeter if it is not being detected.
- Press the refresh button in the Edge dB App to initiate a new scan for dosimeters in the area rather than wait until the next auto-scan interval.
- If still unable to view dosimeter, exit out of Edge dB and close it.
- Then, reopen Edge dB to try and establish a connection.
