Setup Internet connection for the frame
The ViewClix Smart Frame is shipped with built-in connectivity:
Standard model: connects to Wi-Fi networks
Broadband mobile data model: for situations where there's no Wi-Fi. It includes a
mobile data connection (just like the mobile data connections within smart phones)
Wi-Fi model
Broadband Mobile Data model
When the ViewClix frame starts up, it dis-
plays a “welcome” screen with a prompt to
start Wi-Fi configuration. The list of availa-
ble Wi-Fi networks is then shown.
After choosing a network or entering a
network name, you’ll be prompted to
enter the network’s password/key.
NOTE
: If you don’t see the Wi-Fi network
listed, it may be because the network is
configured to be “hidden”. In this case,
you can select “Add Network” to enter the
Network name (SSID) and password/key.
If your ViewClix frame is the Broadband
Model, there is no need to configure a
network connection.
Each time the frame starts up, the mobile
data connection will be verified automati-
cally.
Preview Camera
After connectivity is confirmed, a preview of the camera is shown. This assists you
in positioning the frame in the best location for a Video Call.
If the preview appears dark or not positioned properly, see the sections "
Frame
Placement & Room Lights
" and "
Camera Placement & Lighting
" on page 19 of
this guide.
When you’re OK with the camera preview, the SlideShow begins automatically.
That’s it —
the installation is complete.
When the ViewClix Smart Frame is shipped, there are a few sample images in the
SlideShow. To share pictures and make video calls, you and family members may
use the
ViewClix Mobile App
or a web browser on a PC or Mac.
