WA190 JVA Solar WiFi Anywhere Product

Introduction

The PTE2705 JVA Wi-Fi Anywhere (WA190) provides an integrated Wireless Cellular USB Dongle (Wingle) power supply with a solar battery charger and management system. This product provides a Wi-Fi network wherever a 3G/4G signal is available*. The Wi-Fi can then be used to connect an IP device or Internet of Things (IoT) device to the Cloud (Internet).

The JVA Solar Wi-Fi Anywhere is installed with an ALDI SIM card at the factory, all you need to do is:

Register the SIM card
Connect any Wi-Fi-enabled device to the network provided

This quick-start guide explains how to deploy your WA190 and connect a battery ready for Wi-Fi connections. *An external cellular antenna (included) may be connected to increase reception. An upgraded YAGI-style antenna is available from [email protected]

Troubleshooting

Fault	Likely Cause	Remedy
No lights are on	Power is not connected

Power wires are re- versed

| Check power connec- tions

Check battery polarity

Battery not charging| Solar wiring backwards| Check that the Solar + goes to the left-hand screw terminal
| Broken cables| Check that the battery cables are not dam- aged
| Solar panel broken| Check solar panel for physical damage (bro- ken glass, bent frame etc.)
Fault| Likely Cause| Remedy
---|---|---
Cannot connect to

Wi-Fi

| Low signal from 3G/4G| Check management page of Wingle
| Out of Wi-Fi range

(~10m)

| Move closer to Wingle
| SIM card not inserted correctly| Re-insert SIM card

If the unit is still not working correctly, contact your nearest JVA distributor for technical support.Before you start

Activate the SIM card
Activate your SIM card and test it in a mobile phone. The Wi-Fi network allows a data-only connection, the number of devices connected to the module will determine how much data will be used.

As a guide, a single IP Energiser or IP Monitor will use less than 1MB per day, so for connecting a single IP Energiser, an upper limit of 500MB per year is an option with a lot of headroom.

Tools Needed:

H6 Hex allen key (Solar Bracket)
13mm wrench (Solar Bracket)
14mm wrench (U-bolt)

Deployment and Orientation

Unpack the solar kit from it’s packaging. Look inside the packaging for a set of U-Bolts.
Remove the U-Bolts from the zip lock bag and mount it to the top and bot- tom panel of the bracket.
U-Bolt x 2
Top or Bottom Panel
Washers x 4
Spring Washers x 4 (E) Hex Nut x 4
Mark the mounting pole. This is where the top of the U-bolt will be. Slide the U-bolts over the pole and tighten when the top bolt aligns with the previous marking.
Loosen the 6 bolts on the inside of the frame. DO NOT completely remove these bolts. Lift the bottom of the solar panel until the attached arms holding it are angled at 90 degrees. Tighten all 6 bolts again and face the panel north. $WA190 JVA Solar WiFi Anywhere $4$$
If you have a JVA energiser it can be installed between the solar panel and the pole. There are 2 mounting screws that can be used to hang the energizer up.
If your JVA energiser is fitted, plug it into the solar regulator lead. The energiser aligator leads and plug pack will be unused (left over). $WA190 JVA Solar WiFi Anywhere $6$$
Attach the red and black eyelet crimps to the battery. To find a battery that will suit you, visit our website: https://jva-fence.com.au/solar.php
Alternative wiring:** Alternatively, the energiser can be connected to the battery directly using the alligator leads that came with the energiser.
** The Solar regulator lead will remain unused. The plug pack provided with the energiser will also be unused.
