Troubleshooting guide for UTY-ANY1 and UTY-ANY2 wall-mounted touch screens
FG42 meaning: The customer’s Apple device cannot locate the wall-mounted AnywAiR touch screen on the local network.
Before starting
Confirm the products:
This guide applies to UTY-ANY1 and UTY-ANY2 systems using the wall-mounted Android touch screen and the AnywAiR mobile app.
Do not factory reset first.
A full reset can erase system settings. Complete the network, power and time checks below before considering reset or replacement.
Flow chart 1 – Basic FG42 diagnosis
FG42 appears on the Apple device
Restart the wall-mounted touch screen.
Switch off its circuit breaker for 5 minutes, then restore power.
Confirm the tablet has the latest available Android updates.
Confirm the wall-mounted screen is connected to the customer’s local Wi-Fi.
Confirm the Apple device is connected to the same local Wi-Fi network.
Set the wall-mounted Android tablet to use network-provided date and time.
Reconnect the Apple device to Wi-Fi, reopen the AnywAiR app and search again.
FG42 cleared
No further action required. Record the cause if identified.
 FG42 remains
Continue to the network isolation flow chart below.
Flow chart 2 – Network isolation
FG42 remains after restart, Wi-Fi and time checks
Can the wall-mounted tablet browse the internet or connect to the router?
NO
Forget the Wi-Fi network, reconnect using the correct password and check signal strength.
 YES
Continue to the next check.
Are the Apple device and touch screen on the same Wi-Fi name and same local network?
NO / UNSURE
Connect both devices to the same Wi-Fi. Avoid guest networks, isolated IoT networks and mobile data during testing.
 YES
Continue to router checks.
Restart the modem/router, wait until Wi-Fi is fully restored, then restart the touch screen and Apple device.
Does the router use guest isolation, AP isolation, client isolation or a mesh node that prevents devices seeing each other?
YES / POSSIBLY
Disable isolation for testing or move both devices to the same main Wi-Fi network.
 NO
Escalate with the information listed at the end of this guide.
How to set the correct time on the Android wall tablet
  1. Open Settings on the wall-mounted Android tablet.
  2. Open System, General management or Additional settings, depending on the Android version.
  3. Select Date & time.
  4. Turn on Use network-provided time, Automatic date & time or the equivalent option.
  5. Turn on Use network-provided time zone or Automatic time zone.
  6. Confirm the displayed date, local time and time zone are correct.
  7. Return to the AnywAiR screen and restart the tablet if the displayed time does not update immediately.
Important: A date set years in the past, including a default date such as 2020, can prevent secure communication and device discovery. Always correct the date and time before replacing hardware.
Flow chart 3 – Wall tablet time is incorrect
Wall tablet shows the wrong date or time
Is Automatic date & time enabled?
NO
Enable network-provided date, time and time zone.
 YES
Confirm Wi-Fi has internet access and restart the tablet.
Is the time now correct?
YES
Retry AnywAiR device discovery.
 NO
Set the correct time manually for testing, confirm time zone, then escalate if it resets again.
