Meteor is an indie, third-party* app for use with the EEVBlog 121GW Bluetooth-LE multimeter. It performs most of the same functions as the EEVBlog app, but adds some new features:
+ Control buttons available in landscape mode
+ Option for spoken measurements (using iOS voice synthesizer)
+ Option for continuity buzzer
+ Dark mode option
+ Connect/disconnect button and disconnect-status labels
There are, however, a couple of features missing from the EEVBlog app:
- Does not yet support multiple meters
- No math mode for multiple meters
This is a public beta, designed to get as much feedback and testing from 121GW users as possible. While I believe any public version is as bug-free as possible, please be aware that this is beta software and should not be relied on for critical uses until actual v1.0 release.
At app startup, you should see a page listing any 121GWs that are advertising near you. Or, at any time you can tap and hold the meter icon at the bottom-left of the main screen to bring up the meter-scan page. (This page is also available from the app menu, which you access through the button at the bottom-right of the main screen.)
The meter icon at the bottom-left of the screen should turn blue when you are connected to a meter. If you don't get any readings from the meter, please try tapping the meter button once to disconnect, and then again to reconnect.
If you tend to switch between an iPhone and iPad, or between two phones, you may find that it's easier to establish a new connection by turning the meter itself off and back on, and/or turning the meter's BT off and back on.
