Pairing the Varia RCT715 with Your Phone

The first time you connect the Varia™ RCT715 to the Varia app on your phone, you must pair both devices. After the initial pairing, the Varia app automatically connects to the Varia RCT715 when you open the app and the radar device is active and within range.

  1. Bring your phone within range (0.3 m) of the Varia RCT715.
    NOTE: Stay 10 m away from other Bluetooth® sensors while pairing.
  2. On your compatible phone, enable Bluetooth technology.
  3. From the app store on your phone, install and open the Varia app.
  4. Select Add New Device.
  5. While the Varia RCT715 is turned off, hold the device button for 4 seconds to enter pairing mode.

    The device status LED flashes Purple, and the tail light turns on. The device is in pairing mode for 5 minutes or until you hold the device button for 2 seconds to exit pairing mode.

  6. Select Pair.

When the Varia RCT715 is paired with your phone, the app displays the current radar status.
