i) Open the Scout App, register with username and password, and
confirm with your email address.
ii) Turn on Scout and wait until the LED stops blinking. Out of
factory condition, the Scout is set to WiFi direct mode.
iii) Use the mobile phone to connect directly to Scout. Once
connected you can control the robot and view its video image on the
phone and other mobile devices.
iv) Send your home WiFi SSID and password to Scout. Scout will
automatically switch to WiFi router mode (WiFi AP mode) and connect
to your home WiFi and become online. Scout supports dual-band,
2.4GHz, and 5GHz. Once configured the WiFi router mode, pressing
the WiFi button can switch between WiFi direct mode and the WiFi
router mode.
I can’t connect to my home WiFi router. What should I do?
If WiFi direct mode works, but users fail to configure home WiFi router,
please check the following:
i) Make sure there is no special character in the WiFi SSID/password.
Make sure the information is correct.
ii) VPN, firewall in the home WiFi router and gateway can block Scout
to access its AWS server which is located in the east coast.
iii) After the phone configures Scout, the WiFi direct connection will
drop. Make sure the phone can obtain internet access through home
WiFi router.
Place Scout near the home WiFi router and try again.
