Note:
The encryption type must be set to WPA2. The outdated mixed mode WPA+WPA2
is
not
supported. This is especially important for FRITZ!Box routers which usually come
with mixed mode enabled by default.
Setup with WPS
A comfortable method to connect the Light-Manager to your Wi-Fi network is by using
WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup). This just requires a push of a button. Please connect the
Light-Manager to the AC adaptor included in delivery. Now activate WPS mode at your
router. Most devices offer a dedicated button for this purpose. In case of the FRITZ!Box
the Wi-Fi button has to be pressed for 5 seconds. Other models require the WPS mode
to be enabled in the configuration interface.
Now press the button of the Light-Manager shortly. The LED starts blinking in green. As
soon as the devices have found each other the LED changes its color to yellow. Now
network parameters are exchanged, connection establishment can take up to two
minutes. When this is done the LED stops blinking and changes its color to dim blue to
signal operational readiness. The Light-Manager is successfully connected to your local
Wi-Fi network and the IP address is shown in AirStudio under
options -> Light-Manager
setup
. This setting can be changed in the options, too.
