10. USING A WIRELESS ROUTER
Using a wireless router when a network is not available
Using a network connection to set up the D Series drivers from an Ethernet enabled device makes
loop commissioning a much quicker and less frustrating process . It is even better if the device is
wireless and utilising the Loopworks Measure App and Receiver .
It is quite simple to create a temporary wireless network using a wireless router to which you can
attach the D-Series driver and then connect your wireless device to . However it is necessary to
exercise caution before doing this as if a wireless network is already set up, you may interfere with
it if you set up another . The procedure to enable remote access should be:
1 . Check whether the IT manager is happy for you to set up a temporary network for configuring
the driver . If you get permission, this may be an easier option than connecting to the existing
system . See below for instructions on connecting a TP-Link Nano router to the driver .
2 . If permission is not given, check whether the IT infrastructure is already in place i .e . are there
network sockets near the driver that are working? And is there a wireless network that can
communicate with those network sockets that covers the area of the loop to be configured? If
the answer is yes to both these questions then ask if you can have temporary access to the
wireless network to remotely configure the driver. If not, ask if you can plug a laptop into the
network to communicate with the driver .
3 . If a network is available, check whether DHCP is used on it . If it is, enable DHCP on the
driver . If DHCP is not used then switch off DHCP in the driver and ask for an IP address from
the IT manager . Set the driver IP address manually in the Ethernet menu of the driver .
4 . If all the above fail or are not allowed access to the existing infrastructure, run a CAT-5
Ethernet cable from a laptop to the driver directly .
Using the D Series drivers with the TP-Link Nano Router
The TP-Link Nano Router is a compact and
relatively inexpensive wireless router that
will allow wireless control of the D Series
driver through the web interface . The driver
is connected to the router using the CAT-5
Ethernet cable supplied with the router .
A wireless device such as an Android phone or
tablet, an iPod or iPhone or iPad or a laptop can
then be used to access the D-Series driver’s
web interface .
The factory default values for the D Series driver’s Ethernet configuration will work with the TP-Link
Nano router default values. Neither device needs special configuration. Please follow the steps
below to allow wireless control of your D Series driver .
1 . On the back of the TP-Link Nano Router, underneath the MAC barcode, there is an SSID and a
Password . The D-Series driver is capable of powering the TP-Link Nano Router provided that
the external 12V power socket of the driver is not used. Plug the USB cable into the D-Series
Driver but do not yet plug the Ethernet cable into the driver .
