SmartSDR IOS 1.2 provides Bluetooth capability to the Powermate bluetooth BT contoller. Can i still use my Logitech Bluetooth headset simultaneously with it?

I don't see why not. They are different profiles. Was never an issue for me.

It was a question, before i bought a Powermate and tried it. Thanks Stan N1THL

I should clarify, I am on the alpha team and I was one of the beta testers for the app. Bluetooth 100% worked for me no matter what else was connected to the device. So go ahead with confidence.

Thanks Ria.

And yes, I can confirm this. I just tested a Logitech Bluetooth Headset along with the Griffin Powermate. No Problem indeed.

It's even more unlikely that this might have caused an issue as the Headset uses Bluetooth whereas the Griffin uses Bluetooth LE. Technically Bluetooth and Bluetooth LE have not much in common other than the name.

But also to use more than one Bluetooth LE device should not cause any issue (I just also tried the iPad Pro Pen which also uses Bluetooth LE) because Bluetooth LE uses a very lightweight protocol, low priority and low bandwidth so it is ideal for such kind of communication.
