- Next, Reset the Bluetooth on the light with "Bluetooth Reset." This will unlink any previously linked control device.
- In Sidus Link, press the green plus sign in the top right corner. Sidus Link will find and add the fixture.
- Next, press the 3 dots next to the fixture and select "Update Firmware"
- Alternatively, click the 3 dots next to "All Fixtures" and Sidus Link will check the firmware of each light and update accordingly.
- Make sure that your Sidus Link device has an active connection to the internet and is currently connected to your fixture.
- Please make sure the smart device and the fixture have sufficient battery power or connected with an AC Power Adapter during the firmware update process.
- Please keep the smart device within 3m distance to the fixture during the firmware update process.
- If updating fails, please check that the internet and Bluetooth connection are working and try again.
