Zusammenfassung:	A method is provided for Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) communication between a remote control device comprising a peripheral BLE device and a controller on a materials handling vehicle comprising a central BLE device. The method comprises: polling via a plurality of connection requests, by the central BLE device, communicated with the peripheral BLE device with which the central BLE device is paired. The peripheral BLE device comprising one or more activatable switches. Based on the status of the one or more activatable switches, the peripheral BLE device sending reply messages to at least a portion of the plurality of connection requests in accordance with at least one of a first or a second communication operating mode. When operating in the first communication operating mode, the peripheral BLE device replies to only a portion of the plurality of connection requests, wherein each reply message is indicative of the status of the one or more activatable switches. L'invention concerne un procédé de communication Bluetooth basse consommation (BLE) entre un dispositif de télécommande comprenant un dispositif BLE périphérique et un contrôleur sur un véhicule de manutention comprenant un dispositif BLE central. Le procédé consiste à : effectuer une interrogation par l'intermédiaire d'une pluralité de demandes de connexion, par le dispositif BLE central, communiquées au dispositif BLE périphérique avec lequel le dispositif BLE central est appairé. Le dispositif BLE périphérique comprend un ou plusieurs commutateurs activables. Sur la base de l'état du ou des commutateurs activables, le dispositif BLE périphérique envoie des messages de réponse à au moins une partie de la pluralité de demandes de connexion selon un premier et/ou un second mode de fonctionnement de communication. Lorsqu'il fonctionne dans le premier mode de fonctionnement de communication, le dispositif BLE périphérique répond à une partie seulement de la pluralité de demandes de connexion, chaque message de réponse indiquant l'état du ou des commutateurs activables.
