2. Quick Application Guide

2.1 Connect the power supply

Powered by a DC 24V power supply, the power supply wiring is as shown below:

2.2 Connect three phase electricity

electricity

2.3 Connect WIFI antenna
2.4 Configure WIFI parameters: SSID, Password, connect to the cloud

2.4.1 Process of automatic distribution network

  • Turn on the power of the product, and the product will automatically search for the WIFI with the specified name and try to connect.
  • If the connection is not successful within 1 minute, the product will automatically enter SmartConfig mode.

2.4.2 SmartConfig distribution network

  1. Step1: Installation APP software Install and open the app

Operate the app as follows:

  • Confirm the SSID.
  • Fill in the information.
  • Verify the information.
  • Click “Confirm” to proceed.

The number of devices that need to be networked should be filled in based on the actual quantity for this configuration. The configuration personnel should be positioned near the access point(AP), and the number of devices for network configuration should not be too high(less than 10).

  1. Step2:Start FA

Note: If a certain SSID network has already been configured on FA, please ensure that the SSID network is either turned off before FA powering up or that the SSID network cannot be detected by FA.

V- Negative pole

Connect the DC 24V power lead to the corresponding positive and negative poles to power on.

  1. Step3: use solution A or B
    A:Configuring by Scanning QR Code

In the QR Code, the message format is:
[Wifi_Password]|[SSID_NAME]|[BSSID]

If we use the following config:
SSID: OBOX 001 init

Password: 12345678
BSSID not configured

The message string and QR Code should be 12345678|OBOX
001 init|00:00:00:00:00:00

Scan QR Code

B:Manual Configuration (Optional)

Configuration

  1. Step4:Waiting for the configuration.

Wait for the configuration to be finished.
Based on the filled-in device quantity, the program will list the devices that have been successfully configured and save a screenshot of the results. If there are devices that need to be configured but are not listed, it indicates that the configuration for those devices has failed. In that case, you can power on the device again and repeat the previous steps to perform the configuration again.

If the configuration is successful (FA connect to the right SSID), it appears.

2.4.3 Network distribution failure handling

If the connection is not successful within 5 minutes, please check the network environment and repeat the network configuration operation.
