Find nearby devices¶
Before you start
Power on the Dri-Eaz device you want to check and keep it near your phone, and make sure Bluetooth is enabled on the phone. Not sure the unit is supported? Check the supported equipment table.
Scan for devices¶
-
Open Dri-Eaz Sync.
The app briefly shows "Getting things ready…", then the start screen appears: "Tap the button to discover nearby devices."
On the first launch of an app version, tips point out the main controls. Tap anywhere to continue through them, or use the × button to skip them.
Tap Allow on the permission prompt
Before the first scan, the app explains why it needs Bluetooth, then the phone requests the required permissions. Android also requests location access for nearby-device scanning. Tap Allow: the app cannot find equipment without it.
-
Tap the round blue Bluetooth button.
The app scans for a few seconds and switches to the Nearby Devices list.
-
Read the result.
The header counts what was found — for example "2 devices detected" — in two groups:
- Update Available — devices with a firmware update ready to install.
- Other Devices — devices that are already up to date. Tap the section title to expand it.
Scan again¶
Tap Rescan in the top-right corner of the list to search again — for example after powering on another device.
If nothing is found¶
When the list stays empty, check that the device is powered on and close to the phone, then tap Rescan:
If a scan finds nothing at all, the app reports "No devices found. Make sure they are powered on and advertising, then try again."
If the permission was denied earlier, the app says so — "The app doesn't have Bluetooth permission. Allow Bluetooth access in Settings and try again." — and offers Open Settings. To re-enable it by hand:
- On iPhone: Settings → Dri-Eaz Sync → turn on Bluetooth.
- On Android: Settings → Apps → Dri-Eaz Sync → Permissions, then allow Nearby devices (and Location on older Android versions).
When Bluetooth is off, the start screen tells you before you scan. On iPhone, turn it on in Control Center or Settings → Bluetooth, then try again. Where available, the dialog offers Open Settings:
