Connect the AllFlex RS420 to iPad, iPhone, and iPod Touch devices.
The RS420 is MFi (Made For iOS) device, so needs initial connect in the iOS Bluetooth app, then the iOS app connects to it once that’s done.
On power up, the RS420 auto-reconnects to the last device that it was connected to. Here we show how it’s connected first to iPhone11 then power OFF Bluetooth, press the RS420 menu button until menu appears, select “Bluetooth Settings” then “Select Device” then select the iOS device (search and connect to the iPad / iPhone / iPod Touch the first time you connect).
Select the iPad from RS420 menu, then power on iPad Bluetooth, and RS420 connects to iPad.
