DESCRIPTION

EU-Wi Fi RS is a device which enables the user to remotely control the operation of the system via the Internet. The possibilities of controlling the system depend on the type and software used in the main controller.

Main functions:

remote control of the system online
checking the status of particular devices comprising the system
editing the main controller parameters
temperature log
event log (including alarms and parameter changes)
controlling many modules using one administration account
email alert notifications

HOW TO INSTALL THE MODULE

WARNING
The device should be installed by a qualified person. Incorrect connection of wires may damage the module!
Install Module

FIRST START-UP

In order for the controller to work properly, follow these steps while starting it for the first time:

Connect EU-WiFi RS to the main controller using an RS cable.
Connect the power supply to the module.
Go to the module menu and select WiFi network selection. A list of available WiFi networks will appear – connect to one of the networks by entering the password. In order to enter the password, use the arrows and select the right characters. Press the Menu button to confirm.
In the main controller menu go to Fitter’s menu → Internet module → ON and Fitter’s menu → Internet module →DHCP.

NOTE
It is advisable to check if the internet module and the main controller have the same IP address (in the module: Menu → Network configuration → IP address; in the main controller: Fitter’s menu → Internet module → IP address). If the address is the same (e.g. 192.168.1.110), the communication between the devices is correct.

Required network settings

For the Internet module to work properly, it is necessary to connect the module to the network with a DHCP server and an open port 2000.

After connecting the Internet module to the network, go to the module settings menu (in the master controller).

If the network does not have a DHCP server, the Internet module should be configured by its administrator by entering appropriate parameters (DHCP, IP address, Gateway address, Subnet mask, DNS address).

Go to the Internet module settings menu.
Select “ON”.
Check if the “DHCP” option is selected.
Go to “WIFI network selection”
Select your WIFI network and enter the password.
Wait for a while (approx. 1 min) and check if an IP address has been assigned. Go to the “IP address” tab and check if the value is different from 0.0.0.0 / -.-.-.-.
a) If the value is still 0.0.0.0 / -.-.-.-.- , check the network settings or the Ethernet connection between the Internet module and the device.
After the IP address has been assigned, start the module registration in order to generate a code which must be assigned to the account in the application.

CONTROLLING THE SYSTEM ONLINE

Once the devices have been connected properly, generate the registration code. In the module menu select Registration or in the main controller menu go to: Fitter’s menu → Internet module →Registration. After a while the code will appear on the screen. Enter the code in the application or at https://emodul.eu.

NOTE
The generated code is valid only for 60 minutes. If you fail to register within this time, a new code must be generated.

NOTE
It is advisable to use such browsers as Mozilla Firefox or Google Chrome.

NOTE
Using one account at emodul.eu it is possible to control a few WiFi modules.

LOGGING IN TO THE APPLICATION OR WEBSITE

After generating the code in the controller or module, go to the application or http://emodul.eu and create your own account.
Once logged in, go to the Settings tab and enter the code. The module may be assigned a name (in the field labelled Module description):
