Turn Bluetooth radio on or off on a Field Gauge LC20 or Process Meter LC30

This article applies to all Field Gauge LC20 and Process Meter LC30 models equipped with a Bluetooth radio.  

To determine if your gauge is Bluetooth enabled: Check the last two characters in the model number printed on the gauge. If they are "B1", the gauge can communicate wirelessly with Bluetooth.


Each time you power on a Bluetooth-enabled gauge, the Bluetooth radio will be ON by default.

You may choose to reduce battery power consumption on your gauge by turning off the Bluetooth radio.
