Look Ahead in Portrait Mode and AirTurn pedals

A couple of people reported problems with AirTurn BT pedals that caused problems with look ahead. After weeks of pursuing the problem, it turns out that the AirTurn pedals were in the wrong mode. You need to set your AirTurn to direct mode 1.

Note: This MODE is for AirDirect specific apps only. AirDirect
MODE was created to prevent conflicts with the virtual
keyboard.

  1. Power on the AirTurn
  2. Be sure the AirTurn is in MODE 1 (Hold down the MODE
    button for 1 blink of the red light)

Example of Mode button and LED that indicates mode.

Debugging bluetooth keyboard – arrow up and down

Open the Notes app and type in a few lines of text. You must have more than one line of text. Type in a paragraph.

Then press in one of the middle lines of text so you can see the cursor.

Then press the footswitch. The cursor should move up and down between lines. If it doesn’t, then the pedal is not set to arrow up and down.

The pedal should do the same thing as when you use the up and down arrow keys.
