The essence of SvanNET is to simplify the procedures and requirements necessary for the connection. TCP Server is a mode in which SV 200A is configured to act as a server for incoming connections. SV 200A is waiting for the first connection to be established on a designated port (called Data Port; default 8000).
To establish the connection with SV 200A it is necessary to find the network with SSID “SV200A_#xxxxx” (xxxxx is a SV 200A serial number) on your PC and connect to it using a password. Default password is “Svantek”.
Note: Establishing mobile connection requires usage of the SIM card without PIN protection and with activated Internet access. Installation of the SIM card is described in Chapter 3.1.1. Note: The factory configuration of SV 200A enables automatic connection with SvanNET after turning the instrument on.
