Only available for tables updated to firmware 1.12.32
Note: Bluetooth control is slow (BLE), and meant as a fallback when the table is unable to connect to Wi-Fi or gets put on a guest network. Some app features are unavailable when in this mode.
This feature offers a connection to the Sisyphus table for the following situations:
- Your table is connected to your Wi-Fi, but you are unable to connect due to client-blocking settings in your router (please see Troubleshoot Wi-Fi and Connectivity)
- The Sisyphus has been put on a guest network (you can remove the Sisyphus from this network by performing a Hotspot or disconnecting the table from Wi-Fi by going to Settings>Advanced>Disconnect from Wi-Fi)
- You are unable to connect to the Sisyphus network
- You are unable to connect the Sisyphus to your home Wi-Fi network
When you first scan for your table you will see this screen:
If the table is not already connected to your network, it will prompt you to configure the Wi-Fi. Clicking ‘Configure Wi-Fi’ will bring up your list of networks to connect to.
If the app is unable to find your Sisyphus:
- Check that Bluetooth is enabled on your device
- Check that the Sisyphus app has Bluetooth permissions enabled
- Put your Sisyphus into Hotspot Mode
When you connect via BLE you will see this screen:
There will be a Bluetooth icon spinning as the app data loads. When this icon is not spinning, the data is fully loaded.
This may take a bit, especially if you have a lot of tracks/playlists that need to be loaded.
When the app loads, it will look exactly the same as the normal app with one change. In the lower right corner by the settings, there will be a Bluetooth icon.
Like the loading page, when the Bluetooth logo is spinning, it means the app is communicating with the table to play tracks, change the lights, etc. There may be a slow reaction time from the app to the table.
Example: you select a track to be played. The Bluetooth icon will spin while the app loads the home screen. The table may already be playing the track once the app catches up.
If you have additional tracks and playlists, they will slowly load as you use the app.
You can use most application functions, the exceptions being Drawing and Sandify preview. Community and firmware updates will also not be available if the Sisyphus is not connected to the internet. A case where the Sisyphus is connected to the internet, but you use BLE control, is when it is on a guest network.
