PAIRING A DEVICE TO A SINGLE DOWNRIGGER
PAIRING A DEVICE TO A SINGLE DOWNRIGGER
Cannon offers an app that can be used to control and update
the Cannon downrigger using a Bluetooth
®
enabled device. The
Cannon app is available for download on iOS devices through the
Apple App store or Android devices through the Google Play store.
The Cannon app can be used to control the downrigger using a
device that is paired to the downrigger with a Bluetooth
connection. Before pairing the device with the downrigger, the
Cannon app should first be successfully downloaded. You can
confirm that the app was successfully downloaded by opening it
on your device. The Cannon downrigger will only be able to pair
with
one Bluetooth enabled device. It is recommended to review
the "Connecting the Downrigger" section of these instructions to understand how the technology works together and understand how
downriggers function in a network. If you are pairing a device to a single downrigger, it will automatically become the Master downrigger.
If pairing to a series of downriggers, determine which downrigger will be the Master downrigger and then follow steps below and only
work with the Master downrigger during this pairing process. The Master downrigger will be referred to as the BT Master.
NOTICE: Your device will only be able to connect to a
Cannon and be paired if the device Bluetooth is enabled.
Your device will only be able to pair with a Bluetooth
enabled Cannon downrigger.
NOTICE: When opening the app if a "Downrigger Not
Found" message appears, select "Retry Pairing Setup".
