Volume Adjustment

Can I lower the volume and the effective broadcast range of my transmitting device?

Updated over a month ago

The Radius® SDK for native Android and native iOS, along with the React Native wrapper provides a function called setTransmissionVolume which allows the developer to set the transmission volume between 0-100 percent.

By default, the Radius® SDK broadcasts all tones, regardless of tone profile selected, at 100% volume. Reliability may be impacted if a broadcast volume of less than 100% is set. We recommend broadcasting at 100% volume, but provide the option to choose your own broadcast volume. The below chart can be used as reference when choosing a value less than 100%:
