Android asks for a PIN number to pair a wireless device to system

Trying to pair a wireless device to an Android asks for PIN.

The most recent wireless devices from PASCO utilize the BT 4.X protocol.  For these devices pairing is only required through our software, rather than through the operating system as was required for the earlier BT 2.0 protocol.

When pairing a PASCO device to the computer, if you are asked for a PIN number as show below, this is an indication that the sensor should only be paired through the PASCO software (SPARKvue, Capstone, Spectrometry, or MatchGraph) .
