    *               The beacon device manufacturer's company identifier code. 
    *               Usually this will coorespond to the companies BLE SIG assigned number.
    * @param[in] beaconID
    *               A 20-byte value uniquely identifying the beacon. 
    *               The big endian representation of the beacon identifier. 
    *               For interoperability purposes, the first 16+ bytes of the beacon 
    *               identifier should be unique to the advertiser's organizational unit. 
    *               Any remaining bytes of the beacon identifier may be subdivided as needed for the use case.
    * @param[in] refRSSI
    *               The RSSI of the beacon (as signed value from 0 to -127) as measured 1 meter from the device. Used for micro-location.
    * @param[in] mfgReserved
    *               Used for special manufacturer data. Defaults to 0x00 if not specified.
