Chapter 3: Controller Connection Examples
Configure Your SE-SL3011-WF Router
1. Create your StrideLinx account at www.StrideLinx.com, as discussed in Chapter 2.
Steps 2 through 15 are outlined in detail in Chapter 2. If you have already completed router
activation, please proceed to step 16.
2. From Fleet Manager, select Tools
on the Router config file card.
3. Select the connection type "Wireless network".
4. Enter the Network name (SSID) and Password for your wireless network.
5. When using a wireless connection, the IP address and DNS server will be automatically
assigned via DHCP, and HTTP Proxy will be disabled.
6. Local control over remote accessibility, if enabled, will allow you to enable/disable the
VPN connection via a wired digital input on the router. Wiring details are in Chapter 1.
7. Enter a unique IP address for the LAN side of the router (machine network). This must
match the default gateway entered in the BRX PLC setup (192.168.140.1 in this example).
8. Click [Download file] to download the generated file and save it to the root directory of a
USB flash drive. Note that the filename on the USB drive must be exactly router.conf with
no added characters, in case your browser added a suffix when saving the file.
9. Install the VPN Client on your PC. (This step must be repeated for any new PC where you
will use your StrideLinx account.)
10. Mount and wire your SE-SL3011-WF router, and connect the WiFi antenna.
11. Power on your StrideLinx router.
12. Insert the USB flash drive into the StrideLinx router's USB port.
13. Wait around 2 minutes for the StrideLinx router to configure and register itself. After the
router is successfully registered and connected to the StrideLinx Cloud, the Status LED
will be on steady blue.
NOTE: It's best practice to remove the config file from the USB after the router has been registered so that on power
up the router boots from the current configuration rather than the initial configuration.
14. From Fleet Manager, select Devices
devices list, saying "New device". It also mentions your router's serial number (e.g.
17055202), which you can verify with the serial number on the side of the router. This
yellow bar also shows up in the StrideLinx Portal app.
15. Click the yellow bar, name your device as you see fit and select [Activate].
16. Now, your router will appear in the Devices list in your StrideLinx account.
17. Select the router from the list of devices, then click the CONNECT icon.
