Blue Smart IP22 Charger

Changing the PIN code

To prevent unauthorised Bluetooth connections, it is highly recommended to change the default PIN code to a unique PIN code that that offers a greater level of security.

The Bluetooth PIN code can be changed using a Bluetooth enabled device (mobile phone or tablet) with the VictronConnect app.

To change the Bluetooth PIN code:

  1. Connect the Blue Smart IP22 Charger AC power cable to a mains power outlet; after a short delay the LEDs indicating the current charge mode and charge state will illuminate.

  2. Using a Bluetooth enabled device (mobile phone or tablet), open the VictronConnect app and locate the Blue Smart IP22 Charger in the Device list Local page, then connect to the device (the default PIN code is stated on a label located on the back of the charger, or try 000000 if there is no label).

  9. The Bluetooth PIN code has now been changed to the new PIN code.

Notice

During this procedure:

  1. The Bluetooth PIN code is changed to the new PIN code

  2. Bluetooth pairing information is not cleared

Accordingly Bluetooth pairing with the device (mobile phone or tablet) used to change the PIN code is unaffected, however it is necessary to unpair any other devices (mobile phones or tablets) previously paired with the Blue Smart IP22 Charger and establish a new Bluetooth pairing.
