DEVICE SETUP OPTIONS
Option 1: Using Mobile App
SETUP USING THE APP FOR WiFi CONNECTION
Download the App from www.ubibot.com/setup, or search for 'Ubibot' on the AppStore or Google Play.
Download the tool from www.ubibot.com/setup.
This Tool is a desktop app for device setup. It is also helpful in checking setup failure reasons, MAC address,
and offline charts. You can also use it to export offline data stored in the device internal memory.
Launch the App and log in. On the home page, tap "+" to start adding your device. Then please follow the
in-app instructions to complete the setup. You can also view the demonstration video at www.ubibot.com/-
setup for step by step guidance.
We recommend you try to use the PC Tools in case the App setup fails, because the failure may be due to
mobile phone incompatibility. The PC Tools is much easier to operate and suitable for both Mac and Windows.
Input: DC12V/2A Output: DC12V, <100mA

Option 2: Using PC Tools
Via our app and web console (http://console.ubibot.com), you are able to view the readings as well as config-
ure your device, such as create alert rules, set data syncinterval, etc. You can find and watch the demonstration
videos at www.ubibot.com/setup.

SETUP USING THE APP FOR MOBILE NETWORK *
Before you set up the device on mobile data, please check the APN information of the SIM card used for the
UbiBot device.
An APN (Access Point Name) provides the details your device needs to connect to mobile data through your
network operator. APN details differ by network and you will need to get these from your network operator.
With the device off, insert the SIM card as indicated in the picture. Launch the app and log in. Tap the "+" to start
seng up the device. Please follow the in-app instructions to complete the setup process. Please note, the setup
will fail if you don't have data allowance.

RS485 COMMUNICATION
The default mode is the RS485 communication slave mode. If the external sensor collection time is set in the
platform, the master mode for data collection will be activated and the slave mode will be turned off automati-
cally. If the device has been networked, the setting parameters are set by the platform.
For more details, please contact your local distributor or online document.
SETUP USING PC TOOLS
STEP 1. Launch the App and log in. With the device switched on, use the Type-C USB cable provided to
connect your device to the computer. The PC Tools will automatically scan and recognize the
product ID and enter the device page.
STEP 2. Click "Network" on the left menu bar. There, you are able to set up the device on WiFi for all the
models. For the SIM or Ethernet cable setup, please click on the corresponding button to
continue.

DEVICE USE
1. Device Connection
2. Device Alarm
① Power supply: Please use the matching power adapter. The Type-C interface only supports USB communi-
cation.
② Detection rope: Please choose the combination of detection ropes according to the actual situation, the
longest can support 100 m. Before accessing, please unscrew the termination end on the lead wire of the
equipment, and screw the termination end at the end of the detection rope after accessing it to detect normal-
ly.
*Note: When deploying the detection rope, please make it as close to the ground as possible.
③ RS485 interface: Optional RS485 adapter cable can be used to connect the device with the host computer
and establish communication between the two, or to directly connect the external smoke probe or the
temperature and humidity probe. The above connections cannot work at the same time.
④ Relay control: DC3.5mm interface, output 12V (<100mA) when the device alarm is on. Can be externally
connected easily to the sound and light alarm, or output other voltage through the solid state relay. If you click
the configuration key to shut down the alarm function, the relay control output 12V will be closed at the same
time.
① Leakage alarm: After the detection rope is immersed in a non-corrosive conductive water solution, the water
immersion position will be calculated and displayed on the screen in real time, and, at the same time, the
alarm will be triggered. Single point leaks can be measured at the exact location, if multiple leaks are detected
at the same time, the display is between the maximum and minimum distance.
② Disconnection alarm: After the detection rope is disconnected, the disconnection alarm will be triggered
and displayed on the screen ---. ---.
*Note: The equipment is outfitted with the termination end at the factory; if unscrewed, it will automatically
trigger the disconnection alarm.

2.Ethernet network* configuration failure reasons
① Please check whether the network cable is properly connected to the equipment;
② whether the network cable is intact;
③ whether the connected network can access the Internet;
If the above points are not abnormal, and you still cannot activate the device, you need to check whether the
network environment allows DHCP (automatic IP allocation) devices to access the network; or re-scan the
device QR code, select Ethernet access (advanced mode), and follow the APP prompts to manually assign IP to
the device.
3. Reasons for failure to send device data
4. Can the device be used in a network-free environment?
① Check whether the router is working properly;
② If using the mobile data traffic provided by the SIM card* inside the device, you need to check
whether the SIM card* is activated; if the SIM card* is activated, check whether the power supply of the device
is normal; also check whether the amount of the mobile data traffic provided by the device SIM card* is
sufficient for the data transfer.
The device can still work without a network, and the data can be read in real time through the LCD screen view
or RS485 interface.
