Device States and Screens

Your Deepthroat Trainer moves through various states during operation, each with its own display screen. Understanding these states helps you navigate the device and troubleshoot any issues.

Startup sequence

When you power on your trainer, it goes through these states:

Welcome Screen

Displays your Trainer ID (5-character alphanumeric code)
Shows Wi-Fi connection status
Timeout: 15 seconds before auto-advancing

Write down your Trainer ID — you’ll need it to pair the device with your dashboard account.

Preflight Checks

After the welcome screen, the device runs system checks:

Verifies Wi-Fi connection
Checks if device is paired
Looks for available updates

The screen shows “Getting ready…” while these checks complete.

Wi-Fi Configuration

Wi-Fi Setup Screen

Displayed when entering Wi-Fi configuration mode:

Shows a QR code for easy connection
Displays “Connect to ‘Trainer Setup’”
Enter via: Long press during welcome screen

The WiFi configuration portal has a 400-second timeout. If it expires, the device will restart.

Pairing State

If your device isn’t paired to a dashboard account:

Displays a QR code linking to dashboard settings
Shows “Pair me for more settings and fun!”
Press the button to skip and continue offline

Update State

When a firmware update is available:

Displays “Updating” with a progress indicator
Shows “Thanks for waiting! You’re almost ready to play.”
The device will restart automatically after updating

Do not power off the device during an update. Wait for it to complete and restart automatically.
