Mounting the APC 2Mi on the Wall
The indoor unit APC 2Mi unit can be mounted on a wall easy. Follow the steps for APC 2Mi
installation on a wall:
Step 1. Attach the unit by a two screws on a wall and push it downwards until it clicks into
position:
Step 2. Connect omni antennas (item C in the Figure 1 –APC 2Mi Package Contents),
Ethernet cable and power adapter (item D and E in the Figure 1 –APC 2Mi Package
Contents), to the APC 2Mi:
Step 3. After the power adapter was connected to the APC 2Mi, the green power LED and LAN
LED must be on (refer at the respective section LEDs). Dependently on link quality, up
to four yellow LEDs will switch on indicating that the link between two units was
established successfully.
Step 4. After the link between two devices was established, align antennas for the maximal
performance. Run the Antenna Alignment tool in the Web management interface and
move omni antennas in the horizontal and vertical planes until the maximum RSSI
visible on the Antenna Alignment graph is achieved.

Access the APC 2Mi
The first connection to the APC 2Mi can be made using a standard Ethernet cable connected directly
to your PC. See next sections for the instructions on how to access the APC 2Mi management
interfaces.
Connection via WEB Browser
The default IP address of the APC 2Mi is 192.168.2.66 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0.
Step 1. Configure your PC with a static IP address on the 192.168.2.0 subnet with mask
255.255.255.0. Connect the APC 2Mi Ethernet interface in to the same physical
network as your PC. Open the Web browser and type the default IP address of the
APC 2Mi: https://192.168.2.66/
Step 2. Enter the APC 2Mi administrator login details to access the Web management:
The default administrator login settings for all APC 2Mi are:
Login: admin
Password: admin01
Step 3. After successful administrator log on you will see the main page of the APC 2Mi Web
management interface. The APC 2Mi now is ready for configuration. For further
instructions on Web management refer to the respective document APC 2Mi User

Resetting to Factory Defaults
The APC 2Mi device has 2 options how to reset device to factory defaults:
Reset button (refer at the Figure 2 –APC 2Mi Overview). Press and hold the Reset button for 1
second to reboot the controller; press and hold the Reset button for more than 5 seconds to set
the controller to factory defaults.
Resetting to defaults via Ping.
Resetting Device via Ping
APC 2Mi has the capability of being reset to defaults by pinging the device with a certain packet size
when the device is booting. During the startup of the device, when the drivers of the ethernet
interfaces are loaded, the reset daemon is started. The daemon suspends startup process for 3
seconds and waits for ICMP "echo request" packet of length 369 bytes. If the packet received, the
reset daemon sets the device to default configuration.
It is recommended to connect PC to the device via switch, as depending on PC OS
settings, the ARP table might be flushed during wired link status change (connecting the
device that will be reset).
Steps to reset to default settings:
Step 1. Power off the APC 2Mi device.
Step 2. Obtain the device MAC address.
Step 3. Connect a PC to the same physical subnet as the device.
Step 4. Execute 'arp -s' command to assign the IP address (IP address should be from the
same subnet as PC) to the device MAC address:
arp -s <IP address to assign> <device MAC address>
Note that syntax of MAC address differs depending on OS:
Linux OS: AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:FF
Windows OS: AA-BB-CC-DD-EE-FF
Step 5. Start pinging the APC 2Mi device:
For Linux users: ping <IP address> -s 369
For Windows users: ping <IP address> -l 369 -t -w 200
Step 6. Power up device and wait about 30sec or more (depending on device hardware).
Step 7. Stop pinging the APC 2Mi, and let the device boot as usual. The device should start up
with factory default settings.
