Network Configuration - Detecto APSWIFI Installation And Setup Manual

Connecting to APSWIFI Access Point (Ad Hoc)
From the initial factory settings, the APSWIFI will appear as a wireless access point with
the name "CardinalS2W. In order to connect to the APSWIFI for initial setup, you will
need to connect to it as a wireless access point using a wireless device such as a
laptop, PC, tablet or smart phone. Once connected you can make use of the full
functionality described in the Operation section below.
Connecting to an Existing Network
In order to set up the APSWIFI to connect to an existing network:
1. Power on the scale with the APSWIFI installed.
2. Connect to the APSWIFI access point.
3. With a PC or laptop, use HyperTerminal or another terminal client to connect to the
wireless module IP address and port 10001. The default IP address is
192.168.0.100.
4. Once connected, send three '$' characters and press enter. The module should
reply with "CMD" and is now in command mode.
5. To launch the web configuration utility, type "run web_app" into the terminal console
window and press Enter. This will cause the APSWIFI to reboot in the web
configuration mode where you can set it to connect to an existing network.
6. Since the module rebooted, you will need to reconnect to the APSWIFI access point.
Once you have reconnected to the WIFI module, launch a web browser and
navigate to
http://config
If your attempt to browse to this page is unsuccessful, you may need to disable any
other Ethernet adapters besides the wireless adapter being used to connect to the
APSWIFI module. Make sure to start the web configuration app by briefly applying the
DEFAULTS jumper before connecting to the APSWIFI access point.
You should then be presented with a new page which contains a form that can be used
to set up the network configuration to either connect to an existing network, or act as a
wireless access point. On the next page is an image of how this screen will appear as
well as functional descriptions of each of the settings.
