How To Pair A Phone with a Spider

Spider 6, Spider 7, Spider 8 and Spider X Connection Information.

Please check that you are using the latest version of the mobile App:

                 

1. Open the App.

2. Login with the details that you use to sign in with on app.spidertracks.io.

3. Tap More.

4. Tap Spider Connection.

5. Tap Connect.

6. Tap the X to close the Spider Page.

The connection may take a few minutes depending if the Spider has a clear view of the sky. The next time the Spider powers up within Bluetooth range (10m) to your phone, with the application open, it will automatically attempt to connect.

Pair with Spider X via Aircraft Registration

Pilots can now pair with a Spider X device according to the registration of the aircraft it is installed in;

This feature improves efficiency and reduces errors for pilots rotating through larger fleets by making it easy to identify and pair with the correct Spider when using Spidertxt. 

Once setup requirements have been met, this service will work anywhere - even without mobile internet.

Note:

• Incompatible Registration: This is because the aircraft registration is not set or has a dash in the tail number. We support A-Z, 0-9 and do not support "-" and do not allow spaces.

• The first time you connect to a Spider 6, Spider 7 or Spider 8 you will need to manually connect.
• In your iPhone settings make sure that Bluetooth is enabled, please DO NOT PAIR at this stage.

Note:
