Industrial WiFi Getting Started
Plan and implement antenna placements: Antennae are omni-directional,
responsive in all directions. Locate near the center of the WiFi working area.
Best antenna diversity is achieved when the antennae are widely separated.
Avoid placing antennae near RF noise sources such as motors and power cables.
Metal mounting surfaces should be grounded to the power supply ground
with as short a connection as possible using standard single-point,
“star” ground configuration. Where mounting surfaces can not be
effectively grounded, insulate the antenna mounting.
All antennae connections must be tightened to 8in∙lbs torque.
Provide fused 24VDC power. Observe installation requirements marked
on the product label.
Open WiFi settings in your computer or Apple®mobile digital device. Choose or
enter network named “drive.web” with WPA2 security. It may take a minute or
two to discover.
Enter the password when prompted, “1driveweB”. Password is case-sensitive!
Verify that you are connected to the network, “drive.web”.
All devices on both wireless and wired networks must have unique IP addresses
on the subnetwork, 10.189.189.1/16.
DHCP server assigns addresses in the range 10.189.189.100 to 10.189.189.199.
This feature may only be useful for connecting Apple mobile digital devices
when there is no internet connection.
With no internet connection, invalid router, gateway, or DNS addresses in your
computer’s network setup may affect savvy and savvyPanel
performance. With no internet connection, use manual, static
addressing in your computer and be sure to set the DNS and router or
gateway addresses to 0.0.0.0 or blank.
Read “Getting Started with savvy”, which can be found under the Help menu
in drive.web savvy software. This document provides information for
setting IP address in a Windows7®computer.
Use savvy software to set IP addresses in your drive.web devices. Avoid
assigning addresses in the DHCP range.
