Quick Overview

–

Android Reconfiguration...continued

The HELP area of the application invokes a Self-Test feature that
can be used to determine if your smart phone or tablet has its
Bluetooth wireless technology enabled (useful for microBlox

product applications), whether any modules can be detected by rescanning,
whether a device is connected, and whether the microcontroller of the
connected module is operational. You simply tap

[BEGIN SELF-TEST]

to

perform the diagnostic exchange and review the results returned. If one or
more tests indicate Failed, you can also tap the down arrow message below
the self-test report to access additional information regarding failed tests.
Optionally, you can review an online video tutorial on working with the unit
by tapping the Video Tutorial URL line.

Or, if you wish to contact Acromag for assistance, you can tap the

[CONTACT

ACROMAG]

bar to obtain the phone and email information window shown

below for talking to Acromag directly (the same information is also obtained
via the menu dotted

action bar icon and “Contact Acromag” selection).

You may also refer to the Troubleshooting Table in this manual which lists
common issues related to working with these transmitters and some
recommended remedies.
