Troubleshooting

If you're having issues pairing, some of the following steps may help.

• Pair the device with iOS and update the firmware. You will have to then unpair or reset the device before attempting to pair with the gateway again.
• Perform a hard reset on the device.
  • This typically requires you to hold a button on the device for 10-15 seconds. See device manual.

If you're having errors with Bluetooth devices in particular:

• The Raspberry Pi Bluetooth and WiFi devices are on the same chip. As such, they can cause interference with one another. As such, they can conflict with one another and cause lots of timeouts/disconnections. To resolve these issues, it is recommended that you connect your Raspberry Pi via ethernet and disable the WiFi connection. For instructions on how to do so, see here.
