RP6 ROBOT SYSTEM -   APPENDIX

22. If nothing helped so far, THEN (and only then) try a factory reset of the WLAN 

module. Go into the configuration dialog in tab "Config Scripts" and click in se-
quence on the buttons:  

1. Run Factory RESET! 
2. Run initial WIFI config (BAUDRATE is 9600)!
3. Run default WIFI config!

Wait every time until the scripts are completely finished! Then redo the WLAN 

settings in the "General Settings" tab and try again to connect. 

23. This does not reset 100% of all settings. If there are still problems or if the 

serial interface has been set to an unknown baud rate by mistake, the module 
can also be reset 100% to factory settings if you proceed as follows: 
1. Turn the power supply off.
2. Touch   a   metal   part   of   a   grounded   device   (connected   to   protective   earth 

building connection, water tap, PC with metal chassis) to discharge yourself 
because of the risk of electrostatic discharge (ESD).

3. Bridge the ADHOC jumper on the WLAN module (small screwdriver) and keep 

it bridged! 

4. Switch on the power supply. The LEDs of the WLAN module should now flash 

faster than during the normal boot process!  

5. Immediately afterwards bridge and open the contact with a screwdriver or a 

jumper (e.g. the jumper of the ISP/BOOT) 5x in sequence with pauses of 

one second (not shorter).

6. The LEDs should flash slowlier once this has worked (and they also do so 

after a timeout so this is not a sure sign if it really worked... )

7. If   it   doesn't   work,   try   again   (and   this   time   with   one   and   a   half   second 

pauses)!  

8. Continue with 22. step 2..

Other solutions that are rather a fallback solution if nothing else works:

24. Try with another PC or notebook
25. Use the ADHOC connection – e.g. with a USB WLAN stick or notebook 
26. Execute a factory reset of the access point / router (PRIOR to that export all 

settings into a file if possible and get your internet provider access data in order 

to be able to set them correctly even without the backup file, also write down 
the other most important router settings). Then perform ONLY the network and 

WLAN settings and NOTHING else. Then try it again with the WLAN module. 
Save   settings   /   export   to   file.   Now   make   all   other   settings   and   retry.   If   it 

worked before you made all settings, then you may compare (diff) the two ex-
ported files and check which settings could block the connection... 

27. Try another router / access point if available.
