It takes just a few steps to connect a 123 Robot to your iPad.
Turn on the 123 Robot by pushing the 123 Robot along a surface to “wake” it.
Launch VEXcode 123.
When launching VEXcode 123, you may receive a prompt asking to verify Bluetooth usage. Select ‘OK.’
Open VEXcode 123 and select the Robot icon in the Toolbar.
Select ‘Connect.’
A list of available 123 Robots will appear. Select the name of the Robot you want to connect to.
Once a Robot is chosen, select the ‘Connect’ button.
The Robot icon will turn orange and a ‘Connecting to:’ message will appear while the Robot is connecting.
Once the Robot is connected, the icon will turn green. The message in the window will say ‘Connected to:’ and list the name of the 123 Robot that is connected to this iPad.
Underneath the “Connected to” message, there is an icon that displays the battery level of the 123 Robot.
The level in the battery will appear as one of three colors:
 |
Red for a low battery level |
 |
Yellow for a medium battery level |
 |
Green for a full battery level |
To disconnect from a Robot, select ‘Disconnect.’
