Hi Mike, I'll try this again because I checked what you meant by my message being cut off.
1. The iPhone needs to be off totally: The sequence is to turn on the Apex first, set it in terminal mode and make sure that bluetooth is turned on by pressing the letter B. 2. Now, open the iPbone: Go to settings blucsooth and make sure it is also turned on. 3. Swipe down (one finger swipe to the right) until you hear Apex. 4. Do a single double tap on the pair button. Note: I change the typing mode to standard, so I can use a split double tapp to quickly input the code and catch the pair button. The pair button is in the right hand corner just under the battery percentage. 5. The code that Sarah gave you is correct of 4 zeros. In using the above method, I usually can pair my Apex in 1-2 tries. Once the Apex is paired, you will need to turn on the apex first, with the iPhone turned off. Then turn on the phone. It may take a few seconds for the Apex braille display to respond, but it will. HTH.
