Selecting this option will scan for un-associated CSRmesh devices that
are advertising the CSRmesh UUID. Available devices will be listed
when they are discovered as shown in Figure 5.3.
Page of 2011
Figure 5.2. Adding a New Device
Figure 5.3. Detected Devices

You can select a device to associate which will highlight the selected
device as shown in Figure 5.4. If supported on the CSRmesh device, it
should indicate that the device has been selected to be associated.
(e.g. flashes an LED)
If the device selected is not the correct device to add, you can select
another device. If the device is the correct device to be added, you
can then select ASSOCIATE DEVICE as shown in Figure 5.5.
Note:
The association can be cancelled by tapping on the cancel button
once the association has been initiated.

will be sent via Bluetooth. Bluetooth connection with a bridge is
required.
Gateway channel: By selecting this channel, all the mesh messages will
be sent via WIFI to the gateway which will relay the mesh messages to
the mesh network. This option will only work if the device is connected
to the gateway WIFI.
Cloud channel: By selecting this channel, all the mesh messages will
be sent via Internet to the server which will relay the mesh messages
to the gateway and this one will relay them to the mesh network.
