Is it possible to completely turn the the LIDAR-Lite v4 LED bluetooth off ? I want to use the LIDAR-Lite v4 LED inside an EM measuring chamber and if bluetooth is on, it will interfere with measurements. I read the manual and could not find a straight answer to that question. The Bluetooth is used for firmware upgrades and this feature can be turned off, but the manual does not say explicitly that Bluetooth is also turned off. Thanks

After reading through the documentation, there doesn’t seem to be any tools available to us to disable the Bluetooth. You’ll have to reprogram the chip inside the module. However, I would try to reach out to [Nordic Support or [ANT+ for more technical information.

If it’s just an LED you’re needing to be removed, you could try desoldering it. However, that will void the manufacturer’s warranties.](https://www.thisisant.com/developer/resources/tech-support/)](Nordic Q&A - Nordic DevZone - Nordic DevZone)

Thank you very much for the quick response, Brandon.

We’ll have to find another sensor, I’ll try LIDAR-Lite 3
