When module connects to AP (AP associated), this pin will output “0”. This signal used to judge if module already at WiFi connection status. Thers is pull-up resister internal and no external pull-up required. If nLink function not required, can leave this pin open. Jinan USR IOT Technology Limited Page 17/72 tec@usr.cn...
USR-WIFI232-T module can be configured as both wireless STA and AP base on network type. Logically there are two interfaces in USR-WIFI232-T. One is for STA, and another is for AP. When USR-WIFI232-T works as AP, other STA equipments are able to connect to wireless LAN via USR-WIFI232-T module.
2.2. Work Mode : Transparent Transmission Mode USR-WIFI232-T module support serial interface transparent transmission mode. The benefit of this mode is achieves a plug and play serial data port, and reduces user complexity furthest. In this mode, user should only configure the necessary parameters.
UART data. If this interval time exceeds defined value (50ms default), USR-WIFI232-T will think it as the end of one frame and transfer this free-frame to WiFi port, or USR-WIFI232-T will receive UART data until 1000 bytes, then transfer 1000 bytes frame to WiFi port.
Webpaged based Wi-Fi upgrade,please refer to 3.1.8 firmware upgrade page , user can upload firmware file from PC to USR-WIFI232-T. USR-WIFI232-T module also support upgrade from remote HTTP server, keep module connects to AP router before excuate remote HTTP upgrade. Remote upgrade have two methods: Direct Download and Upgrade, Configure File Based Upgrade.

3.1.3. Work Mode Page USR-WIFI232-T module can works at AP mode to simplify user’s configuration, can also works at STA to connect remote server through AP router. Also, it can configure at AP+STA mode which provide very flexible application for customers.
When user select module works at AP and AP+STA mode, then need setting this page and provide wireless and network parameters. Most of the system support DHCP to achieve IP address, so we suggest to “Enable” DHCP server in most applications. Jinan USR IOT Technology Limited Page 27/72 tec@usr.cn...
Other Setting Page USR-WIFI232-T usually works at data transparent transmission mode. At this mode, the user device which connected with USR-WIFI232-T will connect and communicate with remote PC or server. At this page, user need setting serial port communication parameters and defines TCP related protocal parameters.
User can upgrade new software (firmware) version through Wi-Fi. Figure 18. Upgrade SW page 3.1.9. Restart Page Most of the settting and configuration can only effective after system restart. User shall restart after finish all setting. Jinan USR IOT Technology Limited Page 29/72 tec@usr.cn...
After module restore factory default setting, all user configuration profile will lose. User can access http://10.10.100.254 to set again, and user name and password is “admin”.
