Troubleshooting connection issues for the Network Pro

Use Field app to verify that the Network Pro is working and that the association with an SCS Controller has been properly configured.

Before starting

  • Activate the Network Pro as part of the installation process - The Network Pro will not start advertising or communicating over Bluetooth until it is activated. We recommend that you always configure the Network Pro first and then plug it in while working on the mounting process to reduce this wait time. Find out more about Network Pro activation options in the installation manuals.
  • Set up Field app - Download Field app onto your mobile device

Connect to a nearby Network Pro to start troubleshooting

Step Details

1.

To verify the Network Pro with Field app, open Field app and either:

  • Scan the QR code on the Network Pro with your mobile device camera 
    OR
  • Select the Network Pro from the list of available devices displayed on the Field app homepage and click CONNECT.

Can’t see Network Pro serial number in the list of devices in the Field app.

  • User role may not have access to the Network Pro ONE feature.
  • Network Pro hasn’t been activated and therefore is not advertising over Bluetooth yet.
  1. First, make sure the Network Pro is powered. Refer to the section on LEDs in the New Build Installation Manual if required.
  2. The Network Pro can take several minutes to activate. Please wait and try again.
  3. If neither of these options work, contact AoFrio Technical Support and request Network Pro access in the Field app.
