  1. Go to ConsoleDevices and open the device.

  2. Under Device PIN, type 4 to 8 digits.
  3. Select Set PIN, or Change PIN if it already has one.

You can also set the PIN straight after pairing, when the pairing window asks for it.

Good to Know

  • Staff need the PIN to open the kiosk's device menu, and to unpair the kiosk from the device itself.
  • Agoo turns down easy PINs such as 1234 or 0000.
  • The app checks the PIN on the device, so the menu opens even offline. A kiosk in a browser checks it online.
  • Wrong tries lock the menu for a while.
  • Keep the device PIN different from the passcode you use for Guided Access or the tablet's screen lock.

If Something Goes Wrong

  • The kiosk says "Set a device PIN first". No PIN has been set for it yet. Set one in Devices, then try again on the kiosk.
  • Staff have forgotten the PIN. Set a new one in Devices with Change PIN. The kiosk picks it up when it next syncs.
  • The menu is locked after wrong tries. Wait, then try again with the right PIN.
