iPad & Vex IQ Brain bluetooth connectivity

Dale_Auten · October 5, 2020, 2:12pm

My students are using iPads with VexCode to program IQ robots. Several can not connect to the robot brain via bluetooth. All updates on Brain are current. Please advise

did you make sure that bluetooth was enabled on the brains?
sounds like a stupid question, but that could possibly get overlooked

What types of Ipads are ur students using,

This is worth checking - there is an option called Radio Data in the settings. Make sure it is on.

And if you select the “reset all settings” option on the brain then the radio data option will be reset to off.

See this support article for more troubleshooting steps.
