Received my Sky (yipee!) but when trying to add a Station in the app and get to the screen to Enter Hub Serial Number and I type the 4 digits exactly as labeled on the bottom of the Hub and hit Next I get Device Not Found - Be sure hub has power (it does) and check the serial number. (I have a dozen times!!)

Bluetooth is working well from my Android phone and the data from my Air station is reporting (even approaching lighting is giving me alerts).

I have power cycled the hub a number of times and closed and opened the App as well.

I have run out of options…

Hang about! Are you trying to add a Sky to your current station OR are you adding a second station with a new Hub?

Well, I thought I was past the main hurdle I had created for myself…

The Sky was flashing a green light on the bottom when I first installed the batteries but now when I redid the batteries (correctly) I get one flash of blue light and a green light for 5 seconds and then nothing.

So, when I now try to add the Sky in the app, after naming it and putting in the height and click Save I get “Error syncing data”

The light is actually a button. Press and hold it until its starts flashing slowly. Then add the device.

Thanks for the info on the button however, when I press and hold it starts flashing green rapidly and when I release it starts flashing slowly (as it should) but when I add the device it flashes rapidly again a few times and I get the Error syncing again…

It looks like your station ID is 1580 and the station name is GreenHaven. Is that correct?

Okay. I wanted to make sure your Hub is updated to the latest firmware. It is at 47 so that is not the issue.

When you press the + then you press Sky what happens next?

It brings up another page with SKY (4611)  
When I click on that it takes me to the page where I give it a Name and then add the Height  
and then click Save at the bottom

That’s what it should do. But then it fails. Is that correct?
