ZENYX Configuration
ZENYX is configured through Wi-Fi using a laptop, tablet or mobile phone. There is no need to install any software or LAN wiring.
Following are 3 simple steps to initiate ZENYX configuration.
Step 1: On ZENYX bootup, the device waits for 5 seconds for user to start configuration server. The ZENYX screen shows the following message (with countdown from 5 to 0):
During the countdown, short press the Config button (present on top left side) to start the configuration server.
Do not long press the Config Button. Just push and release!
Step 2: Once the button is pressed, the device will enter in AP (Access Point) mode, meaning a Wi-Fi network will be broadcasted. The Wi-Fi SSID name and password are displayed on the ZENYX screen. Connect the laptop to the given Wi-Fi.
Details of Wi-Fi created by ZENYX are displayed on the ZENYX screen and are as follows:
Wi-Fi SSID: yu10001031
Wi-Fi password: 12345678
ZENYX IP address: 192.168.4.1
Troubleshooting Guide to connect to ZENYX Wi-Fi
1) In some cases, Wi-Fi may be shown as "Open network". In this case, no need to enter Wi-Fi password.
2) At times, the Wi-Fi setting on laptop may be showing "Connecting.." instead of "Connected to Wi-Fi" after ZENYX Wi-Fi is selected. No need worry. Please open the Configuration URL (192.168.4.1) on laptop. It should simply open.
3) In case of further trouble, please "Forget" any previously stored Wi-Fi names linked to ZENYX.
Step 3: This is how ZENYX configuration page looks like on laptop.
While laptop is connected to local Wi-Fi of ZENYX, internet will not be accessible on the laptop.
ZENYX will keep the configuration server running for up to 5 minutes on inactivity. All ZENYX configuration will be done through this page as covered in subsequent sections.
