FidoHome setup guide
Follow this guide from phone setup to the game menu. Each step tells you what to do and what you should see before moving on.
WHAT YOU NEED
Prepare these three devices before starting the setup.
The dart machine you will connect and activate.
An Android phone or iPhone can be used to set up and operate FidoHome.
Provides internet-connected Wi-Fi for your phone and dart machine.
STEP BY STEP
Complete the numbered steps in order. If you already have an account, skip the optional account-creation steps.
Turn on the connections FidoHome needs.
Install FidoHome, then choose the correct server and display language.
Use an existing FidoDarts account or create a new one.
Complete A1–A4 in order. Step 7 will appear after all four account steps are marked complete.
On the FidoDarts sign-in screen, choose the New Account button to begin registration.
Enter your email, create and confirm a password, review the user terms, then choose Next.
Complete the required name, nickname, gender, birthday, and region fields, then choose Next.
Set a profile image if required, then choose Register. Return to Step 7 and sign in.
Wait for the blue status light, then find the machine in the app.
Use the same network as your phone and enter its password.
Let the app complete its checks, then confirm activation.
READY TO PLAY
When the dart machine displays the game menu, basic FidoHome setup and activation are complete. You can now choose a game and start playing.
QUICK CHECKS
Try these checks before starting the connection step again.
Possible causes include a weak Wi-Fi signal, an incorrectly entered password, or unsupported special characters in the password. Move closer to the Wi-Fi router, enter the password again carefully, and check every uppercase letter, lowercase letter, number, and symbol.
Choose “Rescan” in the app. If the signal is weak, move the phone and dart machine closer to the Wi-Fi router, then search again.
Confirm that the machine’s blue LED stays solid, Bluetooth and Location are turned on, and all required app permissions are allowed. Keep the phone close to the dart machine, then scan again.
A slow internet connection or an unexpected loss of power during the update may interrupt the process. Turn the dart machine and app back on, then try again. If the update still does not finish, contact FidoDarts for assistance.
SETUP PROGRESS
This browser has an unfinished FidoHome setup. You can continue where you stopped or clear the progress and begin again.
