4.1 The app’s main screen (on your smart device)
After you have downloaded the PIKO SmartMeasure Car app to your smart device, your device will be prompted to connect
with the SmartMeasure Car’s own WLAN network. If it does not connect at first, look in your device’s Settings app for the
SmartMeasure Car’s WLAN network, which is “PIKO-Messwagen_H0.” The app’s main screen displays all available data like
speed, distance traveled, track incline, locomotive speed step setting, track voltage, and battery level.
Each piece of data can be highlighted by tapping on it. The menu bar at the top of the main screen has two arrow keys that are
used to switch screens on the Smart Measure Car’s display. A gearwheel icon is located on the far right of the menu bar, that
allows you to switch to the app’s “settings” screen.

The settings screen allows you to select various “settings” options. To exit the settings screen, tap the arrow in the upper left of the menu bar or
use the “back button” on your smartphone or tablet.
