2.1.4 Provisioning
After making the sensor connections and providing power, you must provision the XW11x for use on your
wireless network. The goal is to configure the XW11x such that it can recognize and attach to your Wi-Fi
access point. There are two methods for doing this:
Internal Web Server
The web server requires an active Wi-Fi connection running at full power. It is recommended to use a
wall-transformer with this method or do the configuration quickly as this mode consumes large amounts
of energy. If this is the first time powering the device, it will automatically enumerate as an access-point,
other wise, you must remove the top cover and press the "access point" push button. The XW11x will
awaken and begin broadcasting as an access point. Its SSID is "TempModule-XXXXXX" or
"InputModule-XXXXXX" where XXXXXX are the last six digits of its MAC address. With your wireless
device (laptop computer or smart phone) scan for, and attach to the TempModule or InputModule
wireless network. Next, access the web server in the XW11x using a web browser. To access the setup
pages, enter the following URL in the address bar of your web browser:
http://192.168.1.2/setup.html
After the page is requested, a password prompt will appear. Enter the username and password. The
default username is admin and the default password is webrelay (password is case sensitive). The
following chapter explains each of the setup tabs and screens. Use the WiFi Networks tab for making
the proper settings to allow the XW11x to connect to your access point.
WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup)
The WPS Push button method, allows users a simple method for attaching the XW11x to a wireless
network without needing to use any setup pages. To begin, press the WPS button on your wireless router
or access-point. You will generally have about two minutes to connect wireless devices to the network
with WPS. Now remove the cover of the XW11x and press the "WPS" push button. After a few seconds,
the XW11x should register itself with the router or access-point. If the XW11x has not already been
configured, it will use DHCP to obtain an IP address. You will need to access the DHCP server, router, or
access-point to find the IP address it was assigned. Additionally, the connection information is also
broadcast using mDNS. Please note, that the XW11x web server is available with the default
configuration, but will not be if the device has been configured as a slave device or if it has been disabled
for the stand-alone mode.
