Casting an equation

Once you have written your equation, you need to actually "cast" (send) your equation to any Devices you want to run it on. Once you cast an equation, the Device will run that equation until you either remove the equation or replace it by casting a new one. Even if you turn the Device off and then on again, it will continue to run the equation when it turns back on.
Once you have your equation written, in order to cast it to a Device, select the Cast icon in the bottom right corner as shown in image I to go to the casting page.
In the casting page, shown in image II, you should see any devices you are already connected to. If you do not see any Device, as is the case in image II, press the plus button after "Hardware" to see nearby Devices.
Once you see the Devices you want, hit the "add button" as shown in image III.
Once you've added all the Devices you want to cast to, you will see them listed above the scan button, with a green "connected" icon, a status checkmark, and a trash icon to remove that device. Go ahead and hit the cast button as shown in image IV to send the equation to the Devices. You will see the button change to "Setting Modules," as shown in image V.
If there are modules that need to be set, the screen shown in image VI will pop up. In this case, let us assume that on the device we are casting to, our light module is in port 1, and therefore in the correct position, but our glow module is in port 7. Hold the glow module icon down and then drag it down to port 7, as shown in image VII. Once the modules are all in the correct place, press the green checkmark icon.
Once the modules are set, the status indicator at the bottom will switch to "Adding Equation" as shown in image VIII. There is no action needed on this step.
When the equation is set on our hardware, the status will change to "Huzzah," we will see confetti on the screen, and the checkmark next to that piece of hardware will switch to green, indicating that hardware is running the equation.
Go ahead and test out your equation!
When you cast an equation, you automatically save it to your account, and you will see it under the create button on your home screen, as shown in image X.
