Getting Started.
Initially, or when default-
ed, iTach Flex WiFi units are an unsecured
adhoc device discoverable with any WiFi
network-enabled device. After applying
power using the power supply or USB to
power, view available wireless networks and
connect to the Flex in the Networks list.
The Flex is named with its unique MAC
ID, which is printed on the bottom label.
For example, if the MAC ID is
000C1E-
01B45C
, the wireless network name will be
ITACHFLEX000C1E01B45C
. WPS is
supported and can be initiated by holding
down the side button on the Flex for 4 sec-
onds and then releasing. The LED will flash
quickly to confirm WPS mode.
Once the connection is established, open a
browser and view your home page. If you’re
not directed to the default IP address for the
Flex,
http://192.168.1.70
, then enter it in the
address bar. Select the SSID and enter the
Passphrase of your network into the fields on
this page. In order for the Flex unit to connect
properly, the network credentials must match
the router settings. At this point, the unit will
connect to the chosen network using DHCP.
Flex units require up to 30 seconds to connect
to a network once settings are changed. The
power LED will blink one time per second
once connected. Flex units will not connect to
a network with 802.11g disabled.
When testing IR functionality, verify the Flex
Link Port is configured as “Single IR Emit-
ter” and connect the supplied IR emitter to
the unit. In the “Single IR Emitter” mode, the
iTach Flex will respond to and execute com-
mands related to IR functionality, i.e. “sendir.”
