Making a Bluetooth Connection to Your Android Tablet
To download and run programs that you create in the EV3
Programming App, connect the Android tablet to the EV3 Brick
via Bluetooth using the following steps (a Quick Start Video of the
connection process is also available in the Lobby Menu of the EV3
Programming App):
1. Confirm that the EV3 Brick is turned on.
2. Enable Bluetooth on the EV3 Brick and ensure that the iPhone/
iPad/iPod setting is unchecked (please refer to page 38 for
further details).
3. Make sure Bluetooth is enabled on the tablet, and open a new
or existing program in the EV3 Programming App.
4. Tap the No Device Connected icon at the top right corner.
5. Tap the ‘Connect’ button.
6. Select the EV3 Brick you want to connect to from the list of
available bricks.
7. Accept the connection on your EV3 Brick manually, then
enter the passkey and press the Centre button for OK. The
default passkey is 1234. Enter the same passkey in the EV3
Programming App.
8. The connection is now established and a ‘<>’ symbol is shown
at the top left of the EV3 Brick Display (next to the Bluetooth
icon) to confirm the connection.
To disconnect the EV3 Brick from the Android tablet, go to the
Hardware Page and tap the ‘Disconnect’ button. Please refer to
