Keypad¶
The Keypad page is used by Passive Customers who only need to enter codes/tokens to activate or reactivate their devices (e.g. PAYG batteries or systems). It provides a simplified, focused interface — no complex menus or account management.
Access Model¶
- No login is required.
- The app opens directly into a simplified interface centered around:
- BLE connection to the customer's device.
- Keypad for entering codes/tokens.
This makes it accessible for customers who are not comfortable with complex menus.
Scanning & Connection¶
When you open the page, your phone uses Bluetooth to discover nearby OVES devices and displays them in a list.
Connecting to a Device¶
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
| Tap | Tap a device directly in the list to connect |
| Search | Search by device name to filter the list |
| QR Scan | Scan the device's QR code to connect |
Once connected, you're taken to the keypad screen.
Keypad Screen¶
The keypad screen displays:
| Element | Description |
|---|---|
| Last Code | The most recent activation code entered on this device |
| Days Remaining | The number of days of service left on the device |
| Number Pad | On-screen keypad for entering the activation code |
Entering an Activation Code¶
- Ensure your device is connected via Bluetooth (see above).
- Type or paste a 21-digit activation code using the number pad.
- Press Submit — the app sends the code to the device over Bluetooth.
If the Code is Accepted¶
- The device processes the code.
- The Last Code display updates to show the new code.
- The Days Remaining updates to reflect the extended usage time.
- A success message appears confirming the activation.
If the Code Fails¶
- An error message is displayed.
- Common causes include:
- Invalid or expired code
- Bluetooth disconnection during submission
- Code already used
Tip
If you repeatedly see errors, contact your local Agent or Distributor to verify the code and device ID.
