SimplySNAP Quick Install Guide
To install the SimplySNAP site controller:
1. Unpack the SS420 site controller.
2. Attach the two antennas included to the site controller as shown
in the figure below. When looking at the top of the site controller
(with the mounting bracket on the back side), the longest antenna
(SNAP antenna) attaches to the top antenna connector on the left
side and the shorter antenna (WiFi antenna) attaches to the top
antenna connector on the right side as shown below. The middle
antenna jack is for cell modem use and is not included in this
configuration of the site controller.
3. Plug the provided power supply into the barrel connector and
then into an 110VAC outlet. When the SS420 site controller
powers up, orange and blue LEDs will light up for approximately
30 seconds while the site controller software starts up. Once this
is complete, the orange LEDs will turn off. The site controller is
now ready to use.
Software Configuration
The SimplySNAP site controller comes preconfigured with the
SimplySNAP software so there is no user installation of software required.
SimplySNAP Version 1.0 currently only supports the Google Chrome
browser. Other browsers will be supported in future releases. If you
don’t have the Google Chrome browser installed on your device,
please download and install it from this location:

Connecting to the Site Controller
The SSID that is broadcast from the SS420 should be visible from the network connections panel
of your computer or tablet. It will appear in your network connections list as simplySnap_XXXXXX
where XXXXXX is the specific address
of the site controller. This address
is unique to each SS420 and is the
last 6 alphanumeric characters of the
Ethernet MAC address.
The Wi-Fi connection to the site
controller is secure. Once you select the SSID and your computer attempts to connect to the Wi-Fi
connection of your site controller, it will prompt you for a password to complete the connection. Enter
the password
synapse!wireless
to establish the connection.
