17.4 Network Configuration
17.4.1 Connecting to 190-WIFI Access Point (Ad Hoc)
From the initial factory settings, the 190-WIFI will appear as a wireless
access point with the name “190WIFI”. In order to connect to 190-WIFI for
initial setup, you will need to connect to it as a wireless access point using
a wireless device such as a laptop, PC, tablet or smart phone. Once
connected you can make use of the full functionality described in the
Operation section below.
17.4.2 Connecting to an Existing Network
In order to set up 190-WIFI to connect to an existing network:
1. Power on the indicator with the 190-WIFI installed.
2. Connect to the 190-WIFI access point.
3. With a PC or laptop, use HyperTerminal or another terminal client to
connect to the wireless module IP address and port 10001. The
default IP address is 192.168.0.100.
4. Once connected, send three ‘$’ characters and press enter. The
module should reply with “CMD” and is now in command mode.
5. To launch the web configuration utility, type “run web_app” into the
terminal console window and press Enter. This will cause the 190-
WIFI to reboot in the web configuration mode where you can set it to
connect to an existing network.
6. Since the module rebooted, you will need to reconnect to the 190WIFI
access point. Once you have reconnected to the WIFI module, launch
a web browser and navigate to
http://config
If your attempt to browse to this page is unsuccessful, you may need to
disable any other Ethernet adapters besides the wireless adapter being
used to connect to the 190-WIFI module. Make sure to start the web
configuration app by briefly applying the DEFAULTS jumper before
connecting to the 190-WIFI access point.
You should then be presented with a new page which contains a form that
can be used to set up the network configuration to either connect to an
existing network, or act as a wireless access point. On the next page is
an image of how this screen will appear as well as functional descriptions
of each of the settings.
