WIFI CONNECTION
The Add-On board (WiFI) can only be connected when the module is in Power Down mode. Follow the steps below
to connect the Add-On board:
Step 1
: The SmartBug board should be reset or powered down in the
Device Power
window by using the
Power
Down
or
Reset
feature on SmartBug App. See Section 14 for more details.
Step 2:
Once, the module is completely powered down, connecting the Add-On board is recommended. The
physical connection of WiFi + SD card Add-On board with the module is shown below:
Step 3
: Turn-on the module again. There are two methods to turn on the module after power down:
1.
Once the Add-On board is connected in
Power Down
mode, use the Power button on the Add-On card to
turn on the module in BLE mode.
2.
Once the Add-On board is connected in
Power Down
mode, connect the USB cable to turn on the module
and remove the USB cable to enable BLE mode.
When the BLE connection is established, and the Add-On card is safely connected, the WiFi connection is allowed.
The WiFi should be configured in the
WiFi Settings
menu item. If the DHCP is chosen, the IP Address, Gateway,
and Net mask selections will be disabled. This means that the IP address will be assigned by the WiFi router and
will be detected by the WiFi discovery feature.
Note
:
It is important that the system (laptop/PC) running the SmartBug app and the SmartBug module are on the
same WiFi network for the SmartBug module to work on WiFi
