Step 4. Prepare the Bridge for Registration

The Acu-link Internet Bridge will transmit your weather information to the secure AcuRite servers. From there you will be able to view and track this information via the web site or by downloading and using the Acu-Link APP for iPhone and Android smart phones, we will cover that later.

Before you can access all this wonderful information, you must first “make the connection” by registering your bridge.

1.Make sure that BOTH status lights are blinking rapidly.

2.Press AND HOLD the “REGISTER” button on the bottom of the Acu-Link Internet Bridge for 4 SECONDS.

Acu-Link Tip

Press the “REGISTER” button only once during initial installation. DO NOT PRESS THE REGISTER BUTTON AGAIN AFTER YOUR BRIDGE HAS BEEN SUCCESSFULLY REGISTERED, or you will lose previously stored weather data and have to register again!
