94 ECLYPSE Connected Thermostat (ECY-STAT)
1. Under Wireless Configuration, set wireless to On.
2. Set the Mode to Hotspot.
3. Choose whether the SSID should be hidden or not.
4. Set the name for this access point by which wireless clients will identify it in Network Name.
5. Set the encryption mode to WPA2, the Wi-Fi Protected Access II option, to secure Wi-Fi network
with a password.
6. Set the hotspot’s authentication password in Password. This is the password wireless clients will
need to know in order to connect to this hotspot. Network access will be disabled until the default
password is changed.
7. Set the hotspot’s IP address that wireless clients will connect to in Ip Address. Ensure that this ad-
dress is:
– Not in the range of IP address set by First Address and Last Address.
– Not the same as the IP address set under IP Configuration for the wired network.
8. Set the hotspot’s subnet mask in Subnet Mask. See About the Subnetwork Mask.
9. Set the hotspot’s addressing range in First Address and Last Address. This defines the range of
IP addresses to be made available for hotspot clients to use. The narrower the range, the fewer
hotspot clients will be able to connect due to the lack of available IP addresses. For example, a
range where First Address = 192.168.0.22 and Last Address = 192.168.0.26 will allow a maximum
of 5 clients to connect to the hotspot on a first-to-connect basis.
10. Under Advanced, set the Channel Number, and Wi-Fi Mode. See Wireless Configuration for an
explanation of these parameters.
11. Click Apply.
Setting up a Wi-Fi Access Point Wireless Network
This turns the controller into a Wi-Fi access point that other wireless clients can use to have network
access. This access point operates off of the same subnetwork and has the same IP connectivity that
the controller has with its wired network connection. For example, if the controller’s wired connection is
to a network that has an active DHCP server, access point clients can also use this DHCP server to
automatically configure their IP connection parameters. See Wi-Fi Access Point for more information.
