6.3. Proximity Profile 
The Proximity profile defines the behaviour when a device moves away from a remote connected device 
so that the connection is dropped or the path loss increases above a preset level, causing an immediate 
alert. This alert can be used to notify the user that the device has been separated. As a consequence of this 
alert, a device may take further action, for example it may lock itself so that it is no longer usable. 
 
The following figure shows how the Security Tag works with Proximity Profile. 
 
 
 
The Proximity profile defines two roles, see the following table: 
Role 
Description 
Proximity Reporter 
Proximity Reporter is the device that alerts on link loss and optionally on path loss. 
Proximity Monitor 
Proximity Monitor is the device that configures the alert on the Proximity Reporter.
