From this entry page you will want to click the button CONFIGURATION WIZARD since you need to set the
parameters of your device. Your web browser will then bring up the following configuration page:
Inter-packet delay timing
can be set in 1-minute increments up to 60 hours, which will add to 2 minutes to give
the update rate of your BIOT connecting to the internet. Careful not to set it too rapid or the battery will drain
rapidly. Typical recommended is about 4 hours. This will NOT affect events like door opening and closing, which
will happen regardless of the inter-packet delay timing.
Your
email address
will be the one to which the BIOT sends its event information. This cannot be more than 64
characters
Your
4 digit alpha-numeric pin
is required to match your BIOT to the server end and will only be needed once to
make the match complete
Your
nickname
can be up to 32 characters long and is particular to this BIOT. It should be something you
recognize such as
“
Front door,
“
Ficus plant
”
,
“
Inside refrigerator
”
or
“
Basement floor
”
to distinguish the messages
you receive in the emails if you have more than one BIOT.
You MAY select
Stealth Mode
which completely overrides the speaker in all operation including the rest of the
setup, but this is NOT recommended. Instead, use the option of Silence offered from PacketPeek later in setup.
Additionally, you MAY change the
water alarm update rate after initial
to preserve the battery in case of a wet
event, where otherwise the device would continue to send non-stop packets while the water detector is wet. The
first packet should be enough to warn you that there is a problem, and the default is set to every 10 minutes
thereafter if the wet event has not been resolved to a condition of dry.
Once you have set the parameters click
Submit and Continue
. This will bring you to the final configuration page
where you will need your own wifi AP

s SSID and password to complete the configuration:
