With the optional TP-Link TL-WN821N dongle, the ipTNA4i can be used as a WiFi Access Point. This is very helpful if it is not otherwise possible to access the Internet from a smartphone, tablet or PC and thus the evalink platform in order to carry out the commissioning.
3.5.3 Local configurations If it should be necessary to configure a fixed IP address and/or special Mobile Access information to enable a connection to evalink at all, this can also be done via the local web server of the ipTNA4i.
The configured port numbers for connecting to the platform must be opened in the firewall. The ipTNA4i can obtain its IP address from the network DHCP server. If this is not possible or desired, a static IP address can also be defined.
Notes and Warnings Intended use: The intended use of the ipTNA4i is only applies when the instructions of the Installation Guide for the installation, electrical connection and commissioning are observed. Any deviation from the installation instructions shall be deemed to be improper.
