Getting Started
Overview

ignition modules. The BeckettLink tool provides qualified
service technicians with additional diagnostic information
to help in the troubleshooting process. The information

as well as cycle history and fault identification.
The BeckettLink can also be used to help qualified service

Important Notes
—Some device and web browser combinations have difficulty in using a Wi-Fi connection that does not connect
to the internet. If your device successfully connects to the BeckettLink but does not display the webpages,
try these troubleshooting steps: “allow” the connection if your device gives a notification requiring it, use a
different web browser, or temporarily turn off your phone’s mobile data.
—For Warranty or Product Information visit www.beckettcorp.com/product/beckettlink.
—BeckettLink will not transmit any information when the spark igniter in the control is active.
—BeckettLink can only link to one phone or tablet at a time.
—Beckett gas ignition controls can only have the timings and sequences configured during the first 4 hours of
burner operation. After 4 hours of operation, the control configuration is locked. Some controls will have the
configuration locked at the factory to meet specific application requirements.
—If your phone or tablet had automatically connected to a WiFi network prior to powering the BeckettLink,
when power is removed from BeckettLink, your phone or tablet may automatically connect back to the
existing WiFi network. If this happens, you will need to reconnect to the BeckettLink network in your settings.
You could also choose to “forget” the existing network.

will not function while the phone or tablet is connected to BeckettLink. Disconnecting the BeckettLink device
will allow the phone or tablet to access those links using cellular data or a standard WiFi connection.
