Power Quality Logger
Energy Analyze Plus Software
17
The Logger communicates with the Fluke Energy Analyze Plus
software on following ports:
The software installer for Energy Analyze Plus automatically adds
exceptions to the Windows firewall. If a third party firewall is used, add
the ports and the application fea.exe to the exception list.
WiFi Direct Connect
With the built in USB WiFi Adapter you can wirelessly control the
Logger and download measurement data to the Energy Analyze Plus
software. The WiFi direct connection uses WPA2-PSK (pre-shared
key) with AES encryption.
To make a WiFi connection:
1.
If not already, enable the WiFi Hotspot on the Logger.
A green WiFi Hotspot LED indicates that the connection is
active. If the LED is off, the WiFi/BLE-to-USB is not installed.
See
WiFi Adapter and WiFi/BLE-to-USB Adapter
.
2.
On the client, go to the list of available WiFi networks and look for
a network with the name: “Fluke174x<serial-no>” for example:
“Fluke1746<12345678>”.
3.
At the prompt for WiFi passphrase, enter
fluketools
.
Depending on the operating system of the client, the
passphrase is also called Security Key, Password, or similar.
After a few seconds, the connection is established.
A blue WiFi Hotspot LED indicates an established connection
with a client.
Note
Windows checks if the WiFi connection enables an Internet
connection. This may take up to one minute until the Logger
is accessible. A missing Internet connection is indicated by
“No Internet” in Windows 10 or with an exclamation mark in
the WiFi icon on Windows 7. This is normal since the Logger
is not a gateway to the Internet.
WiFi to Infrastructure
With a second WiFi-to-USB adapter the Logger can connect to a WiFi
access point. No security and WPA2-PSK security is supported. This
connection requires a DHCP service running in the access point to
assign IP addresses automatically.
Note
This feature requires the WiFi-Infrastructure license.
To connect to an access point:
1.
Select the access point from the list of found SSID (Service Set
Identifier - name of the access point) or enter the name of a hidden
SSID.
2.
Enter the passphrase (8 to 63 characters) of the access point.
A blinking green WiFi LED (8) shows while the Logger tries to
establish a connection to the configured access point. This
takes usually a few seconds. A solid green LED indicates the
connection is ready. Consult the remote control tool for a field
strength indication of the access point. If the WiFi symbol
shows only one to two green bars, the WiFi connection might
be unreliably. Reasons for a permanently blinking LED or
blinking after the LED was solid green already:
-
No access point configured.
-
The configured access point is out of reach.
-
The password is incorrect.
In all cases, see the remote control tool for more details.
