New Selection Guide for Wireless and Bluetooth Solutions
As testing environments become increasingly complex and demanding, the limitations of traditional wired setups are becoming more apparent. Interface’s new Wireless and Bluetooth Selection Guide offers an easy product review of cutting-edge wireless technology that can revolutionize test and measurement data acquisition and applications.
Interface offers a comprehensive wireless and Bluetooth product line without cables, including load cells, instrumentation and communication devices. This new selection guide details our Wireless Telemetry System and Bluetooth Telemetry System components, helping testing professionals and engineers navigate the expansive line of products designed for implementing robust, cable-free measurement systems efficiently and accurately.
Exploring Interface’s Wireless and Bluetooth Ecosystem
The new Wireless and Bluetooth Selection Guide is an easy tool for examining the available components of Interface’s two core wireless systems, WTS and BTS.
Interface Wireless Telemetry System (WTS)
WTS products are designed for demanding applications requiring high accuracy and long-range data transmission. They support a network of up to 100 sensors within a half-mile radius. This system offers high-speed data transmission capabilities (up to 1000 Hz), ensuring precise data capture even in dynamic testing scenarios. WTS is complemented by powerful software tools that facilitate configuration, data logging, and visualization, providing engineers with comprehensive control over their testing environment. Read more in our Wireless Telemetry 101.
Bluetooth Telemetry System (BTS)
BTS components are optimized for close-range monitoring and mobile data acquisition; BTS allows engineers to connect up to 12 sensors directly to their smartphones or tablets. This system uses Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) to provide an efficient and convenient real-time data visualization and analysis solution. The Interface user-friendly mobile app enhances the BTS experience, offering intuitive dashboards and customizable data displays. Read more in our Bluetooth Telemetry 101.

Delving into Technical Considerations
Traditional testing setups often rely on wired connections that can sometimes limit flexibility, increase setup time, and introduce potential safety hazards. Wireless and Bluetooth sensor solutions offer a compelling alternative.
One clear advantage of wireless sensors and instrumentation is the ability to conduct tests in challenging or confined spaces, moving machinery, or dynamic environments where wired solutions prove impractical. Wireless systems are known to reduce setup and configuration time, minimize downtime associated with cable maintenance, and improve overall testing efficiency.
Wireless telemetry allows engineers to conduct tests in challenging locations, such as on rotating machinery or in confined spaces where cables would be impractical or pose safety hazards. Additionally, wireless systems streamline testing workflows by reducing setup time, eliminating cable-related maintenance, and improving overall efficiency.
Interface provides sophisticated software tools to enhance data acquisition and analysis. The guide explores the functionalities of WTS Toolkit, BTS Toolkit, and Log 100, empowering engineers to manage, visualize, and interpret their test data effectively.
Interface offers a diverse range of wireless-enabled load cells ensuring compatibility with various testing requirements. The guide provides detailed specifications and selection criteria to help engineers choose the appropriate sensors, instrumentation and accessories for specific measurement projects and programs.
