If the ZLED Bit Editor app fails to connect or doesn’t show the editor tabs, it’s usually due to one of the following issues:
✅ Checklist to Resolve the Issue:
-
Ensure Lights Are Powered On
-
The lights must be on (running lights active) for the Bluetooth module to power up and broadcast.
-
-
App Permissions
-
Make sure the app has all permissions enabled — especially Bluetooth and Location. Without these, the scan and connection process will fail (Android 10+ requires location access to scan Bluetooth).
-
-
First-Time Pairing
-
On first launch, the app will scan for nearby devices. Look for a device named ZLEDSxxxx.
-
Tap the name to connect. If nothing appears, turn your lights off for 5 seconds and back on, then restart the app.
-
-
Set Your Access ID
-
After connecting, open the menu and set your Access ID (PIN). This is required to unlock the editor tabs.
-
If you skip this step, tabs will remain hidden.
-
-
No Tabs Showing After Setup?
-
Fully close the app and power cycle the lights.
-
Open the app again; it should auto-connect and unlock the tabs.
-
-
Firmware Compatibility
-
Ensure your controller has firmware 1.60 or above for best compatibility with recent app versions.
-
💡 If all else fails:
-
Try using another phone/tablet to rule out device-specific Bluetooth or permission issues.
-
Contact us with your controller version and app behavior for direct help.
