SECTION 8: CONNECT TO WI-FI
The Level Sense Sentry device is immediately ready to join your 2.4 Ghz Wi-Fi network after power
up. When the Level Sense Sentry has not been configured to a Wi-Fi network the Cloud LED will
display as WHITE, and the access point is active (the unit will broadcast its Level Sense Wireless
Network. Refer to section 6). There are two methods of connecting to a wireless network. The first
method turns the Level Sense Sentry into a hotspot, and the second method is called WPS.
There are a series of articles on more advanced troubleshooting for WI-FI connections under the
Troubleshoot section which is found on the upper banner of the website.
Password requirements for your local 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network:
SSID (local network name) and password are case sensitive
The Wi-Fi password may be no more than 48 characters in length
The following characters are supported in the Wi-Fi password:
! " # $ % & ' ( ) * + , - . / : ; < = > ? @ [ \ ] ^ _ ` { | } ~
1. Hotspot Method:
a. To connect your Level Sense Sentry to your Wi-Fi network via the hotspot mode, you will need a
Wi-Fi enabled device like a smartphone or laptop. The Cloud LED of the Level Sense Sentry should
be white which indicates the device is broadcasting a Wi-Fi hotspot. Use your Wi-Fi device (phone,
tablet, or computer) to connect to the Level Sense network (the last four digits of the Level Sense
network is the last 4 digits of the device’s MAC address). Your phone may indicate that this
network has no internet connection. This is normal.
b. Once connected to the Level Sense network, a Wi-Fi configuration page will automatically appear.
If this page does not appear automatically, then open a web browser and enter the device’s IP
address into the address bar: 192.168.4.1
