Quick Start Guide
– 3 –
(Optional) QR Code Onboarding
For quick set up and registration of your AP with the ecCLOUD controller,
you can scan the QR code on the AP using a phone.
Follow these steps:
1.
Make sure the AP is powered on and connected to the Internet.
2.
Use the camera (iPhone) or a barcode app (Android) on your phone
to scan the AP’s QR code. The QR code is printed on a label next to
the AP’s ports.
3.
When a message pops up, tap “yes” to join the Wi-Fi network
(iPhone requires you to go to Settings > Wi-Fi).
The web browser should open and redirect to the Setup Wizard
page.
4.
After setting a new password and the regulatory country, select to
manage the AP using the ecCLOUD controller, or to manage the AP
in stand-alone mode.
a.
Stand-Alone Mode: Use the default wireless network setting or
customize the network name and password. Tap “Done” to
finish the Setup Wizard.
Wait about two minutes for the AP configuration to update, and
then connect to the wireless network name configured in the
setup wizard. The browser is then redirected to the login page
of the AP.
b.
Cloud-Managed Mode: Tap “Done” to finish the setup wizard
and the browser is redirected to the ecCLOUD login page.
If you already have an ecCLOUD account, log in and select a
site for the AP. The AP is automatically registered for cloud
management. After you tap “Save,” wait about two minutes for
the cloud controller to configure the AP.
If you do not have an ecCLOUD account, tap “I want to
register” and first set up an account. Create a cloud and site
before confirming the regulatory country. After tapping “Next,”
the AP is then automatically registered for cloud management.
After you tap “Save,” wait about two minutes for the cloud
controller to configure the AP.
Note:
If the phone cannot connect to the Wi-Fi network, type
the SSID (network name) and password manually. The SSID
name is the AP serial number (for example, EC0123456789),
and the password is the AP MAC address (for example,
903CB3BC1234).
