2. Getting Started
2.1 Connecting the iPad to the wireless network
The iPad must be in close range of the gateway and connected to the gateway's wireless
network to communicate with Recon Blockage Plus™.
Make sure that your iPad is connected to the wireless network at the beginning of every planting
session. This is especially important if your iPad is connected to another network, such as a
home wireless network, between sessions.
To connect the iPad to the wireless network:
1. Power on the tractor and iPad.
2. Tap the Settings icon on the iPad's Home screen.
3. Tap Wi-Fi on the left side of the screen.
4. Make sure that the Wi-Fi switch is enabled.
5. Tap IASBlockage from the Networks list. A checkmark will display to the left of the
network name when the iPad is connected to the network.
NOTE: If the network does not appear, wait a few minutes to give the iPad time
to search for the network. If it does not appear after several minutes, verify that
the LED on the back of the gateway is green.
2.2 Setting up Recon Blockage Plus
IMPORTANT: If you are prompted to enable location services, select Only While Using the
App or Always Allow. If you select Don't Allow, this will prevent the iPad from connecting to the
wireless network.
1. Tap the Blockage Monitor icon on your iPad's Home screen to open the app.
2. Tap the settings
bottom right corner.
