In the TankMate app, select R3 - on the "Add New Sensor" screen
Scan the QR code - located under the base of the sensor
Ensure the sensor is in BlueConnect mode - the status LED will blink dark blue (slowly) - when in this mode
The sensor will go to sleep after 3 minutes of inactivity. To get it back into BluConnect mode, press the READ / RESET button once, to wake it up
Follow the prompts in the app to initiate a temporary bluetooth connection. This will only last until the sensor has been connected to the WiFi network
A success message will be displayed after the sensor has connected to the app
On the next screen:
Select the correct WiFi network (SSID) and enter the password
Ensure the sensor is still blinking dark blue
Press "CONFIRM" to send your network details to the sensor
A success message should be displayed in the app - to indicate a successful connection! Continue through the next few screens to set the tank dimensions.
No SSID listed in the app? This may happen when:
the phone is not connected to a WiFi network
location services have not been enabled for the app - see here
Note: The sensor should be within a few metres of your mobile phone - to ensure the temporary bluetooth connection is still in range
For toubleshooting issues with BluConnect - see here
