Fluidmesh 1200 VOLO
7. DEVICE CONFIGURATION USING THE
CONFIGURATOR INTERFACE
Fluidmesh radio devices that are capable of operating as part of a mesh
network, including the Fluidmesh 1200 VOLO, are shipped from the
factory in Mesh Point mode.
All Fluidmesh radio transceiver devices are shipped with IP address
192.168.0.10, and Netmask 255.255.255.0.
The Fluidmesh 1200 VOLO can be configured by using:
• The RACER™ Radio Configuration interface, or
• The on-board Configurator interface.
The difference between these interfaces is as follows:
RACER is a centralized, internet-based configuration software platform
that is accessed from the Fluidmesh Partner Portal.
• An internet connection must be made between the Fluidmesh
device and the RACER Cloud Server (an internet-based radio
management service).
• Devices can be configured on an Online basis only: configuration
settings are applied to one or more devices without the need for a
configuration (*.CONF) file, and manual configuration is disabled.
• If devices must be configured on an Offline basis (in other words, if
the device is not connected to the internet, and therefore cannot
access its configuration settings from the RACER Cloud Server), a
separate configuration file can be uploaded to the device using the
Configurator (described below).
The Configurator is a localized configuration software platform that
resides on the Fluidmesh device.
• Local configuration is done by connecting a computer to the device
through a direct hardware connection, or through the internet.
• Using the Configurator, devices can be configured on an Offline
basis only. A configuration (*.CONF) file can be manually applied to
set the device parameters, or each device parameter can be
manually set by the device user.
• Offline configuration settings for more than one Fluidmesh device
type can be integrated into a single configuration file. When the
configuration file is uploaded to each device, the device
automatically loads the correct configuration settings for its device
type.
To configure the unit using RACER, refer to the Fluidmesh Networks
RACER User Manual.
To configure the unit using the Configurator, refer to the following sub-
sections.
