Android phone running Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean)
or later. To connect your ManTooth Module
to your phone or tablet the two must first be
paired to one another. The pairing of the
module to your device is done in your phone
or tablet’s sengs.
**Note** you only need to pair your ManTooth
Module the first me you connect it to your
phone or tablet, however, if you force your
phone or tablet to “forget” your ManTooth
Module you will need to re-pair.
**Note** Your ManTooth Module can be paired with
mulple devices at the same me. However, it
can only be connected and sending readings to
one phone or tablet at a me.
To pair your ManTooth Module you first
need to open the sengs menu on the phone
or tablet you wish to pair to your ManTooth
Module. Next tap on “Bluetooth” to enter the
Bluetooth sengs. Be sure to turn your phone
or tablet’s Bluetooth radio on if it is not already on.
Next turn your ManTooth Module on by
pressing and releasing the power buon on the
main module.
The module will go through a brief start up
sequence then the light on your ManTooth
Module should start to blink blue. This means
that your ManTooth Module is search for available
Bluetooth devices to connect with. Next, if you
are using an Android phone, tap on “Scan”
at the boom of the screen to scan for
available devices. Apple iOS devices should
automacally scan for available Bluetooth
devices.
Your ManTooth Module should then show
up as an available device to pair with on your
phone or tablet’s screen. This may take up to
30 seconds.
**Note** Your ManTooth Module’s name is
the same as the serial number and is printed on
the main module’s label.
Once your ManTooth Module shows up as
an available device tap on it’s name to pair it
with your phone. On Android systems a
“Bluetooth pairing request” alert may pop up
asking to confirm the passkey tap on “OK” to
connue.

Aer pairing your Apple iOS phone or tablet to
your ManTooth Module it should show up as
“Connected.” On Android devices your
ManTooth Module should show up under the
“Paired Devices” secon on the Bluetooth
sengs screen.
On Apple iOS devices, once your ManTooth
Module is paired the light on the module will
glow a solid blue. However, on all Android
devices or if your iOS device lists your ManTooth
Module as “Not Connected” the light will connue
to blink blue. This is normal.
