Network Connection Guide

SkyTrak can be connected to your iPad in two ways:
Via a direct Wi-Fi Connecon OR Through your home network/wireless router.
The Direct Wi-Fi Connecon should be used if you do not have access to a
reliable Wi-Fi network (such as on the driving range). When using a Direct
Connecon, your iPad connects directly to the SkyTrak’s Wi-Fi, and thus, does
not have access to the internet.
The Network Connecon via network/wireless router should be used when
you have access to a reliable Wi-Fi network. This connecon mode is required
for certain features/simulator opons where an internet connecon is needed.
When using a Network Connecon, your iPad uses the wireless router as a
bridge to connect the SkyTrak unit to your iPad so the iPad can maintain a
connecon to the internet.

1. To connect in Network Mode, Click the ‘Device Connecons’ icon at the
boom of the SkyTrak app dashboard. (Image 1, page 5)
2. Select Network Mode (Image 2, page 5)
3. The app will then ask you to connect directly to the unit. This is necessary
in order to program your home network credenals onto the SkyTrak unit.
Tap the Home buon on the iPad, go to sengs, and connect to the
SkyTrak unit in the Wi-Fi list. (Image 3, page 5)
4. Return to the app, where it will connect to the unit and all 3 lights will
turn green.
5. Next you will be taken to the screen where you will enter your network
credenals. (NOTE: The SkyTrak unit WILL NOT be able to connect to your
home network if there are any special characters (!, #, $, etc.) in either your
network name or your network password. Please edit the network name
and/or password to remove special characters before proceeding. Also, the
 networknameandpasswordarecasesensivesopaycloseaenonas
you enter them.) (Image 4, page 5)
Your security type is most likely WPA2.
6. Click Connect and the SkyTrak unit will reset itself.
7. The SkyTrak hardware light indicators will go
through a series of color cycles:
• Middle light ashing red
Looking for a network
• Middle Light ashing yellow
Has found a network
• Middle light solid yellow
Has successfully connected to the network

8. Aer a few seconds, all 3 lights on SkyTrak will turn green and you are now
connected in Network Mode and the hardware will remember these
sengs.
Troubleshooting:
I can’t get my hardware to connect to the Network (middle light remains red
or ashing red).
Check the network Name and Password to make sure they were entered
properly (no special characters) and make sure lower/upper case have
been accounted for.
I can’t get my hardware to connect in the app (middle light remains solid yellow).
Make sure your network is not setup as a Guest Network. Guest Networks
will not allow device-to-device communicaon.
If you have more than 1 network, make sure you iPad did not
automacally connect to the wrong network. The iPad must be connected
to the same network that you programmed to the unit.
The SkyTrak unit does not show up in the iPad’s list of available wireless networks.
The SkyTrak may be in network mode, this is normal. You can put the
SkyTrak back into Direct Mode by opening the app, leng the unit
connect, and selecng ‘Direct Mode’ from the device connecons
window on the dashboard.
SkyTrak misses shots while in network mode.
Check the signal of your wireless network. You may need to add a
repeater to boost the network signal.

Due to the large number of routers out there, each with dierent
