appear on your screen. This may take a few seconds. If no devices 
appear on the list, check that the ReefLED is in AP mode and/or refresh 
the page. If you have installed multiple ReefLEDs and you have already 
activated the AP mode on all of them, you will see a list of all of the 
ReefLEDs. Choose any one of them as the first unit and continue as 
instructed by the app.

Connecting to the Home Network

ReefBeat will now display a list of Wi-Fi networks and signal strengths that 
are available to the ReefLED from its current location. Note: if the ReefLED 
is not in its position above the aquarium, your preferred network may not 
be accessible when the ReefLED is repositioned.
Select your preferred network and wait a few moments while the ReefLED 
connects to it. The indicator LED will now be a solid red. Follow the 
instructions on the app for initial settings. 

Connecting without a Home Network (Direct Mode)

ReefBeat will now display a list of Wi-Fi networks and signal strengths 
that are available to the ReefLED in its current location. Select the “Direct 
Mode” option at the top of the screen to skip the network connection (See 
Connectivity Modes).
The indicator LED will continue to blink as the ReefLED WI-Fi remains in AP 
mode. Follow the instructions on the app for initial settings.

Connection and initial setup  

Installing ReefBeat

Download ReefBeat from the app Store or Google Play as appropriate for 
your SMD. (In countries without access to Google Play an APK file and 
installation instructions can be downloaded from Red Sea’s website.)
After installing ReefBeat, you will be guided through the set-up of your 
ReefBeat user account and aquariums, and then you can start adding 
your Red Sea connected devices. All of your user account details can be 
edited only when your SMD is connected to the internet.
For full functionality Red Sea’s connected devices should be connected to 
the internet and your aquariums should be set to “Online”. In the event 
that you do not have an available Wi-Fi network at your Aquarium, set 
it as “Offline”. You can change this setting later when WI-Fi becomes 
available.
Make sure that you select the correct world time zone for where your 
aquarium is located. The default is the same time zone as your SMD 
which might be set for a different location.
If you’ve set up more than one aquarium, select the aquarium from the 
dropdown menu at the top of the screen before proceeding.

Adding your first ReefLED to ReefBeat

Set your ReefLED to AP mode by pressing the settings button for 5 
seconds (until double blink). The indicator LED should be blinking.
Tap the Add Device button ( ) from the Device Manager page, select 
the ReefLED icon and follow the instructions on the app. If you are asked 
to enter the device serial number, it can be found on the back of the 
ReefLED unit. If not, the unique serial number of the ReefLED should
