GETTING STARTED
To get started make sure that you have:
1. An active internet connection (Wifi or Ethernet)
2. A phone with the Flic app installed
3. A Flic button within Bluetooth range of the Hub
The phone is only necessary during the setup process.
Once the Hub and Flic are connected you no longer need the phone
app to be running to enjoy Flic!
POWER
Connect the Micro USB cable to the Hub and an external power
adapter. The Hub will now turn on, indicated by a bright red LED.
After approximately 60 seconds the LED will dim, indicating that it
can now be found using the Flic App on your phone. Follow the setup
and start connecting your Flic buttons.
We recommend that you use an adapter can supply the Hub with at
least 1A. If using an adaptor with less than the recommended current
rating you may experience unstable behaviour.
If using the IR you must ensure that you have a 1A current supply.
INTERNET CONNECTION
To connect the Hub to your Wifi network open the Flic App and follow
the setup steps to get the Hub connected to the internet.
Alternatively you can simply connect the Hub, via an ethernet cable,
directly into your home router/network.
If the Hub doesn’t have an acitve internet connection you will not be
able to connect any Flic buttons.
To check if the internet connection for the Hub is active you should
open the Hub settings page. Look for the network settings section
and press test.
PAIRING YOUR FLIC BUTTONS
If you are pairing a brand new Flic button to the Hub for the first time
then simply tap the ‘+’ button in the bottom right corner of the Hub
app page. You will be prompted to press the Flic button and the
pairing should take a few seconds.
Alternatively, if you are pairing a Flic button that was previously
paired to another device or Hub then you will need to remove it from
that device first. You can do this by tapping the gear (settings) icon
and selecting the ‘Remove’ option. You can now pair this button as
described above.
Remember that you must have an active internet connection to pair!
INFRARED ACCESSORY
Connect your Flic IR accessory to the Hub via the 2.5mm connector
and place the IR blaster in general the direction of the recieving
device(s).
The range of the IR is ~10m. For best results ensure clear line of sight
between IR accessory and recieving device.
To setup your first action simply select the IR Blaster action within the
Flic app. Follow the in app instructions to start recording IR signals
from all your remotes!
INFRARED ACCESSORY
INFRARED ACCESSORY
The Flic IR accessory uses the same reusable adhesive as the Flic
button. Once you have all your actions setup you can simply peel
away the label and secure the IR blaster in the best location to serve
all your devices.
If the adhesive starts to loose its stickiness then you can clean it
• Remove it from the IR base and rinse with water.
• Give it a rub and rinse again.
• Leave it to air-dry and it will return to full stickiness.
Do not apply solvents, chemicals or abrasive cleaning products as
this will damage the adhesive.
AUDIO
Connect the Flic Hub to any speaker via the 3.5mm audio jack
connector.
This allows for the Hub to play a sound as feedback to know that a
Flic button has been pressed.
FACTORY RESET
If, for any reason, you must perform a factory reset you need to press
the pinhole button for between 10-15 seconds.
All your account settings will be lost and the Hub will return to default.
If you remove the Hub from your account and reconnect to it then
you will be prompted to use the Factory Password when pairing.
This can be found on the label on the underside of your Hub.
Alternatively, if during the intial setup you assign your own Hub
password and forget this then you must perform a factory reset to
gain access again.
