Setting up communication
Connecting via LoomDirect
LoomDirect means the loom is generating its own WiFi network and will
show up as an available network on your device. The great part about this
feature is that you don’t need to be actively connected to the internet to
wirelessly connect to the loom. However, your computer must still have the
capability to connect to the internet.
The loom’s protocol is to first search for a router to connect to. If it does not
find one, it will automatically switch to LoomDirect and create its own
network.
Note:
If no router (LAN) connection is established your loom will automatically
switch to LoomDirect.
1)
Wait for the loom to switch to LoomDirect and the private network
to show up on your device. This should occur quickly.
2)
When the Network light shines green
,
the loom is now putting off its
own network that can be found from your device.
3)
The network will be AVL_[loom_serial_number] where
loom_serial_number is the serial number for your loom.
Note:
The loom serial number is shown on a plate affixed to the front of the castle
on your loom.
4)
Connect your device (laptop, tablet, phone) to this WiFi network.
