Steps to Connect to the App
The iOS app is available in the Apple
®
App Store
SM
as “TI Haptic Bluetooth Kit” by Texas Instruments. It is
compatible with iPod touch
®
and iPhone
®
with iOS7 operating system or later. Download and install the
app.
1. Connect a valid power source to the DRV2605EVM-BT. If connected to the battery pack, turn the
switch S2 and the battery pack switch to ON position. If connected using the included micro-USB
cable, there is no need to configure the switches as the board will choose the best power source
automatically.
2. The LEDs play the advertising pattern analagous to a refresh swipe of an internet browser.
3. Open the iOS app.
4. The DRV2605EVM-BT will appear on the iOS device color coded based on the RSSI strength. If the
board was previously connected to the iOS device, a "Previously Connected" tag will appear. This
helps to identify a particular board when multiple boards are advertising simultaneously. You will get a
pop-up asking to check Bluetooth settings if Bluetooth is not turned ON on the iOS device.
5. Click on the board of interest and a connection is made automatically.
6. When the board has successfully connected, it will display the Stock Waveforms menu.
7. Use the buttons to fire individual effects or swipe left to right to access inner menus. Refer to
Section 6
for more information.
