SYMPTOMS:

Communication from your mobile device seems slow or erratic & the Casambi app displays one of the messages below which does not disappear after a few seconds



POSSIBLE CAUSES:

Connecting: Your mobile device is trying to connect to a network

  • You are out of communication range or devices are powered off

Synchronising: Your mobile device is synchronization to the network but not receiving verification back

  • Your mobile devices’ Bluetooth cache may need clearing
  • Possible lost or poor Internet connection

The configuration is out of date: The configuration on your mobile does not match the Casambi cloud

  • Multiple people making simultaneous changes to the network configuration
  • Possible poor internet connection
  • Disabled ”Push notifications" on your mobile device & someone else makes network changes



CURE:

General: Check you have a good Internet connection & are in communication range of your network
