Access the User Interface (UI) on Your
Computer Connected to a Wireless Network
The first step is to access the User Interface (UI) with your smartphone, as
shown above, and preferably set the AP+STA mode. After that:
Press the [Connect to Wi-Fi] button on the Configuration page (there is a
similar button on the Row page).
Select the name of the Wi-Fi network you want to connect to and enter
the password. Please see User Interface Connect to Wi-Fi for more
details.
To be able to see MECHA’s UI on your PC, MECHA must be in STA, or
AP+STA, mode.
If you set the AP + STA mode, as requested in the previous step, you can
proceed to the last step.
If, for some reasons, the set mode is AP, power off MECHA, then power
it on, pressing the
P
button for about 3 to 5 seconds, and wait until - +
is shown on the display. Now press either
+
, to set MECHA in STA
mode, or
=
, to set MECHA in AP+STA mode. (You can also make this
setting on the Configuration page.)
Now you can access the MECHA’s UI on your computer’s browser by
entering the IP address shown on the controller display, like 192.168.2.104,
in the browser address bar, at the top of the window.
In this way, MECHA has the connection data to a Wi-Fi network and is
able to connect to this network when needed. The above step is
required only once for a certain network. If the network changes or
you have deleted the connection data, then you need to repeat this
step, because MECHA saves only the last accessed network.
