If Recipe Handover or Remote Monitoring is not working on your Thermomix® TM7 or in the Cookidoo® app, a few simple checks can help resolve most issues. This article guides you through troubleshooting steps, including enabling Bluetooth® and Remote Access, verifying device connections, and adjusting the necessary settings on both your TM7 and smartphone to ensure smooth operation of these features.
What should I do if Recipe handover or Remote monitoring is not working?
Check the following:
- TM7: Check permission in "Settings > Remote Access"
- Cookidoo App: Go to "Profile > Activities". It will tell you, if you have to change something in your mobile phone settings.
- Ensure your TM7 and smartphone are both connected to the internet
- Make sure Bluetooth® is enabled on both devices
- Verify you’re logged into the same Cookidoo® account
- Restart your devices if needed
How do I turn on Bluetooth® and Recipe handover on my TM7?
To use Recipe handover on your TM7, make sure both your Thermomix® and smartphone are properly set up with Bluetooth® and Cookidoo® access. Here's how to get everything connected:
Thermomix® TM7 device setup:
- Thermomix® TM7 must be online
- Must be connected to Cookidoo®
- Bluetooth® must be turned on
- Recipe handover must be enabled on TM7 in the device settings:
Go to → ‘Settings’ → ‘Remote Access’, enable ‘Recipe handover’
Smartphone setup:
- Smartphone must be connected to Wi-Fi
- Bluetooth® must be activated, and the smartphone must be within Bluetooth® range of the TM7
- Bluetooth® access must be granted to the Cookidoo® app
Cookidoo® account setup:
- Default setting: Recipe transfer is only allowed when TM7 and smartphone are logged into the same Cookidoo® account.
- To allow Recipe handover from another account
Go to → ‘Settings’ → ‘Remote Access’, enable ‘Recipe handover’, choose 'Everyone nearby’ from ’Who is allowed to hand over recipes?’ - This allows handover from anyone’s Cookidoo® app.
Important: The selection is reverted to ‘My Cookidoo® account’ after Thermomix® TM7 restarts.
Recipe handover uses Bluetooth® automatically when transferring recipes from Cookidoo®.
