6.5 Using the Tablet

The Alpha MUTT

comes equipped with a Samsung Galaxy Tablet, Model TAB A with

10.1" screen running on an Android Operating System. These tablets are industry

leading for performance, battery life, screen resolution and security integration.

TABLET BUTTONS

The tablet features several stationary buttons which provide quick access to

important features. These buttons include POWER, VOLUME, MULTI-VIEW, HOME

and BACK. You will ﬁnd that using the Back Button will be very helpful during

normal operation of the Trailer Tester Application. To view all open applications or

force close, press the Multi-View Button.

BLUETOOTH

The tablet controls the Trailer Tester through a Bluetooth

connection. The Trailer

Tester is operated by 4.0 or newer BLE (Bluetooth

technology provides faster response times at longer distances.

If the BLE connection is lost during operation, you can attempt to reestablish

the connection by accessing the BLE Connection Button in the settings menu.

Otherwise, shut down the app and cycle power to the Trailer Tester.

these systems, here are a few quick tips:

• All settings and quick tablet options can be accessed by swiping from the top

down.

Power Saving Menu through the Settings Screen.
