2.2.4 How to Connect tDynamo to an Android Host via Bluetooth LE
To connect tDynamo to an Android host that supports Bluetooth LE:
1) Make sure tDynamo is configured to use Bluetooth LE as its primary connection. If it is configured
to use another connection, use that connection first to change the configuration.
2) If any other Bluetooth LE host has an active data connection to the device, close the connection.
3) On the Android host, install and configure the host software you intend to use with tDynamo. If you
do not yet have that software, you can download a test tool from the Google Play store called
MagTek Test, published by MagTek, Inc..
4) Make sure tDynamo is powered on, is not in sleep mode, and that its battery is adequately charged
(see section 3.4.1 About Power for instructions).
5) Press and hold the pushbutton for 2 seconds until the General Status LED flashes three times, then
release the pushbutton to enter Pairing Mode. The General Status LED flashes blue up to 2 minutes
or until a host pairs or connects.
6) On the Android host, launch the Settings application, and open the Bluetooth settings page or the
Connected Devices > Bluetooth settings page.
7) Make sure the host has Bluetooth turned On.
8) Press the SEARCH FOR DEVICES / Scan / Pair new device button to show an Available
devices list.
9) Locate the seven-digit serial number on the label on the back of the device.
10) In the list of pairable devices, select the device called tDynamo-xxxxxxx, where xxxxxxx is the
device’s serial number.
