GETTING STARTED
To start using Z-Wave Smart Home controller built-in in the Dune box, perform the following steps:
1. Ensure the following cables are connected to the Dune box:
a. Ethernet cable – to connect to the local Ethernet network. Wi-Fi connection can also be used, but
Ethernet connection is recommended for more stable operation.
b. A/V (e.g. HDMI) cable – to connect to a TV. If you want to use the Dune box just as a Z-Wave Smart
Home controller (w/o connection to a TV at all), this can be omitted.
2. Ensure the power cable is connected to the Dune box and ensure that the ON/OFF hardware switch at the
rear panel is in ON state.
3. Determine the IP address of the Dune box.
If the Dune box is configured to obtain IP address automatically via DHCP (which is the default
setting), you can determine the IP address via the Web UI of your home router.
If the Dune box is connected to a TV and the TV is switched on, you can see the IP address in “Setup
/ Information” menu on the TV.
4. Open the following URL in a web browser on PC:
http://IP-address:8083
NOTE: Some version of Internet Explorer web browser may not work. Latest versions of Chrome web
browser are well tested and recommended.
5. Log in as “admin” user. The Dune box may be preconfigured to expect one of the following initial passwords,
find the one which works on your box:
“admin”
“123456”
6. The system may ask you to change the password.
7. Finally, you will get into the Web UI of the Z-Wave Smart Home controller.
HOME AUTOMATION UI AND EXPERT UI
The Web UI of the Z-Wave Smart Home Controller has two parts: the Home Automation UI and the Expert UI.
When you log in into the Web UI, you get into the Home Automation UI.
The Home Automation UI:

Provides high-level Home Automation functionality (applications, rooms, scripting etc).
Is available via the following URL:
o http://IP-address:8083
The Expert UI:
Provides full access to low-level Z-Wave related functionality.
Is available via the following URL:
o http://IP-address:8083/expert
Can also be reached via the Home Automation UI in the following way:
o Click the “Settings” icon at the top right corner of the screen, choose “Devices” item, click “Manage
with Expert UI” button.
