Installation and Setup
XW-110™ WiFi Temperature Sensor Users Manual
Warehouse Temperature Example with no Access Point
You wish to monitor the temperature of a warehouse with a your smart phone. You don't have a Wi-Fi
access point.
Mount an XW-110 inside the warehouse. Power it with a DC wall adapter because the Access Point
mode requires more power than the batteries can provide. If no network profiles have been configured,
the XW-110 will automatically enter the access point mode and you can access the XW-110 directly with
a computer or smart device with a wireless connection. If the XW-110 has been previously configured for
other uses, press the Access Point button. Scan for, and attach to the XW110-XXXXXX wireless
network. Access the setup pages with the following URL: http://192.168.1.2/setup.html
Click the
Restore Defaults
button on the Main setup page. Scan for and reattach to the XW110-XXXXXX
network again. The XW-110 is workable for this application with the default settings, no further settings
are needed. Note, only one device can be connected to the XW-110 at a time when it is in the Access
Point mode. The XW-110 will continue to broadcast an SSID and you can connect to the XW-110
anytime with your smart phone and view the temperature on the Control page (http://192.168.1.2). Since
the XW-110 is not connected to the internet, you must be within 250 feet or so with your smart phone to
receive the WiFi signal from the XW-110. The XW-110 cannot send emails or remote relay commands
because it is not connected to the internet. Be aware that the Access Point is unsecured and open and
the default passwords cannot be changed.
Warehouse Temperature Example with an Access Point
You wish to monitor the temperature of a warehouse with your smart phone or office computer. You
have a Wi-Fi access point in the warehouse. The HTTP web server is enabled to provide continuous
access to the control page.
Mount an XW-110 inside the warehouse. Power it with a DC wall adapter because the web server
requires more power than is practical with batteries.
First, the XW-110 must be configured to access your WiFi network. If no network profiles have been
configured, the XW-110 will automatically enter the access point mode and you can access the XW-110
directly with a computer or smart device with a wireless connection. If the HTTP web server has been
previously turned off, press the Access Point button. Access the setup pages with the following URL:
http://192.168.1.2/setup.html
For this application, configure the XW-110 for the
stand-alone
mode. Leave the HTTP server enabled.
Configure the XW-110 to connect to your wireless network. Navigate to the WiFi Networks tab and fill in
the appropriate settings for your WiFi network. Obtain the IP address from your network administrator.
Press the submit button at the bottom of the page.
Once all the appropriate settings have been applied, click on the
Reboot
button. Since the HTTP server
was enabled, the XW-110 will connect to, and remain connected to your access point. The XW-110 will
now be accessible from the IP address configured on the WiFi Networks tab. The XW-110 will no longer
broadcast an SSID. You can access the control page any time to monitor the warehouse temperature by
entering the IP address that was assigned to the device in the address bar of your web browser. Since
your access point is connected to the internet, you can monitor the temperature from any computer in
the building. If the XW-110 does not connect within a period of time, press the Access Point Button and
repeat the above steps to verify the network settings.
