Troubleshooting
If the 3-in-1 reader is not listed in the list of pairable readers or not is responsive when attempting to pair
- Ensure the reader is charged and connected to power. The status indicator LED blinks blue to indicate a healthy status.
- Toggle Bluetooth OFF and back ON in the iPad settings to force the iPad to rescan for available devices
- Reset the BBPOS 3-in-1 card reader. Insert a paperclip into the small pinhole located next to the micro-USB charging port of the device.
