R/Tach Application start up guide; R4w R8w R9w and Non-w

1. Once you have downloaded the R/Tach Application to your phone and you have launched the application, your device's screen should reflect the below image. This is the starting screen for connecting to a radar detector. At this moment, please ensure your mobile device has bluetooth enabled.

2. Now that you have ensured that Bluetooth is turned on for your mobile device, check your unit by going through the menu and ensuring you have Bluetooth enabled. After this, on your R-series device, scroll over to the screen labeled "BT Pairing" and press the menu key to select it. After this, select the radar detector on your APP/mobile device.

3. Once you have completed the above steps, you will receive a message stating that the radar is wanting to pair to your mobile device. Select "pair", and by doing so you will see the radar's display show "Pairing Successful" for a moment, then return to the home screen.

4. If the pairing is fully accepted, you will see the blue letter "B" on your display as shown below.

5. Additionally, after the Bluetooth connection is confirmed, your display on your mobile device will move into the main display for the application. This display is primarily for diagnostics and information in relation to alerts, battery, speed, and multiple other points of information that can be customized to your preference via the settings menu.

6. Continuing with the discussion of settings, if you select the 4 square boxes in the upper left-hand corner you will be presented with both your user settings (Settings), Wi-fi settings selection, firmware updates, and other general information about the application.

7. Beginning with the wi-fi settings, the unit will connect to a 2.4g connection and is most commonly found via your ISP's guest connection if it is not currently enabled. If you do not have it enabled, either contact your ISP to enable it, or use your ISP's dedicated app to enable a guest connection. 

8. After you have done the above steps, you will see the connection available to use for your device. Ensure that the Wifi/BT is set to ON for the radar, then it will begin connecting to the newly established Wi-Fifi. Once your mobile device has established connection, you should see the symbol on your device as shown below.

9. The arrow is indicating that there is a download available for your unit and can be started. You can perform this update via the app under the "Firmware Updates" tab. Your device is now successfully paired to your mobile device.
