How to pair a blood pressure monitor on iOS

You can either pair a blood pressure device as part of your first-time login or when you skipped pairing it the first time by completing the following steps:

1. Unpack your device and install the batteries. Make sure the device is powered off.

2. Open the Welch Allyn Home App and log in.

3. Touch + to pair your Welch Allyn Home device.

4. Touch Welch Allyn Home.

5. Touch Blood Pressure if you already have a Welch Allyn Blood Pressure Monitor to use with your app. Touch the image of the Welch Allyn Home Blood Pressure Monitor.

6. A dialog box stating "Welch Allyn Home would like to use Bluetooth for new connections” will pop up. Touch "Settings" and allow Bluetooth connectivity from there.

 If Bluetooth is turned off, you will see a separate "Please Connect Bluetooth" screen that gives instructions on how to turn Bluetooth ON from the settings menu.

1. Touch Pair Now to start the pairing process.

2. Press AND HOLD the power button on the blood pressure monitor for 2 seconds to pair the device.

3. Once the device had been detected, the Device Found screen appears on your phone and then the Device Paired dialog will open. Touch OK.
