How to Access the AWK 
Before installing the AWK device (AWK), make sure that all items in the 
package checklist are provided in the product box. You will also need 
access to a notebook computer or PC equipped with an Ethernet port. 
•  Step 1: Select a suitable power source and plug in the AWK. 
The AWK can be powered by DC power ranging from 9 VDC to 30 
VDC. 
•  Step 2: Connect the AWK to the notebook or PC via the 
AWK’s LAN port. 
The LED indicator on the AWK’s LAN port will light up when a 
connection is established. 
NOTE 
If you are using an Ethernet-to-USB adapter, follow the 
instructions in the user’s manual provided with the adapter. 
•  Step 3: Set up the computer’s IP address 
Choose an IP address for the computer that is on the same subnet 
as the AWK. Since the AWK’s default IP address is 
192.168.127.253, and the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0, set 
the IP address to 192.168.127.xxx, where xxx is a value between 
1 and 252. 
•  Step 4: Access the homepage of the AWK. 
Open your computer’s web browser and type 
http://192.168.127.253 in the address field to access the AWK’s 
homepage. Log in using the following default username and 
password: 
  Default Username: admin 
  Default Password: moxa 
Click the Login button to access the homepage of the AWK device. 
First-Time Quick Configuration 
After successfully accessing the AWK, refer to the appropriate 
subsection below to quickly set up a wireless network.

conflicts when you
