All  HOMIDUS  devices  come  with  factory  defaults  settings.  That  means  that  they 
contain  only  the  necessary  info  for  the  type  of  the  device  and  of  course  the 
embedded firmware.  

Before device Configuration

: At power up, the LED on the device flashes rapidly, 

showing that this device is un-configured.  

If LED does not light at all, check power supply and proper wiring.  

At device Configuration:

 While you are in the phase of scanning new devices, in 

order  to  add  them  to  the  selected  Installation,  it’s  crucial  to  go  near  to  the  un

-

configured  devices  with  your  phone,  because  this  operation  needs  that.  After  a 
while all the devices will be configured one by one or all together, while you are 
moving towards to them. 

After device Configuration

: After setting device configuration, LED starts to blink 

every second to the configured devices. This is indication of properly connection to 
router. If after configuration, LED is constantly at ON state, make sure that router 
and  its  WiFi  is  working,  that  you  gave  correct  credentials  at  configuration  (SSID, 
password) . 

In any case you don’t have access to your device or you want to return it to factory 

settings,  then  you  have  to  press 

Reset 

button  for  five  seconds.  The  device  will 

reboot, all settings will be erased, the LED will start flashing rapidly and it will be 
waiting for the new configuration. 

As soon as, we add new features to HOMIDUS devices or discover and fix possible 
bugs,  we  will  set  the  new  firmware  available  to  our  server,  so  you  can  upgrade 
your devices and enjoy new functionality.
