Connect?

This screen shows when you are connecting your CORE 500™ for the first time with the Eko App via Bluetooth. The first time you use the app on a mobile device that's new to the CORE 500™, you'll be guided through a series of steps to set up your device. When prompted with this screen, press the button on the side of the device that corresponds to the check mark. After this initial connection, the Eko App remembers the CORE 500™ and connects automatically.

If you reject the connection to the Eko App by pressing the button corresponding to the X, the CORE 500™ disconnects from Bluetooth and returns to the main display screen. The connection with the mobile device isn't created and the CORE 500™ remains unknown by the Eko App. This screen reappears every time you try to connect to the Eko App, until you accept the connection.
