The following screen appears:
The application scans for Octopus units in its communication range and lists the units
related to the current phone:
In the Upper Side of the screen the application lists the Octopus units that are already
associated with this phone. An “In Range” message appears next to each one of the units
that are currently within the communication range of the phone. Deleting a unit from the
list is done by selecting it and pressing the Trash Bin icon next to its name. Scroll along
the list and select the unit you would like to connect to from the “In Range” units, The
Application connects the unit and displays the Home screen.
The Lower Side of the screen lists the Octopus units that are currently within the
communication range of this phone, but are not associated yet with the application. Select
the Octopus unit you would like to associate with the application and connect to; it will be
moved to the paired devices list in the upper part of this screen.
