required, but the monitoring of tools is to be carried out.

1.2 System requirements

The WPM repeaters are intended solely for use with the WPM cloud application. You need a

running WPM cloud application for operation.

The WPM cloud application must be accessible via port 8883.

The WPM repeater can be integrated either via WLAN or via LAN into the company network.

Commissioning

2 COMMISSIONING

Please proceed as follows to commission the WPM repeaters:

1) Create the WPM repeater in the cloud application as gateway at the desired location.

Note: As the password, use the printed MAC address.

This should look like this: ac-23-3f-c0-7f-f9

2) Import the configuration file available on the cloud onto the supplied USB stick.

3) Edit the network configuration (network.config) on the USB stick according to your require-

ments.

The points highlighted in red in the example must be edited in any case. The other points

can be changed according to your needs or remain unchanged.

Example (DHCP):

–config interface 'loopback'

- option ifname 'lo'

- option proto 'static'

- option ipaddr '127.0.0.1'

- option netmask '255.0.0.0'

config device 'wlan_dev'

- option name 'wlan0'

config interface 'wwan'

- option ifname 'wlan0'

- option proto 'dhcp'

config device 'lan_dev'

- option name 'eth0'

config interface 'wan'

- option ifname 'eth0'

- option proto 'dhcp'

4) Connect the repeater to the network via a network cable (for cabled installation). Alternative-

ly, you can also connect the repeater to the existing WLAN.

5) Edit the wireless.config on the USB stick according to your requirements.

Example:

config wifi-device 'radio0'

- option type 'mac80211'

- option channel 'auto'

- option hwmode '11g'

- option path 'platform/10300000.wmac'

- option htmode 'HT20'

- option disabled '0'

Commissioning

config wifi-iface

- option device 'radio0'

- option network 'wwan'

- option mode 'sta'

- option ssid 'YOUR_SSID'

- option encryption 'psk2'

- option key 'YOUR_PASSWORD'

6) Plug in the power supply unit and switch on the device.

7) Plug the USB stick with the configuration into the repeater.

8) The LED ring on the repeater changes to a green/blue LED and starts to fill the LED circuit

slowly.

9) When the LED ring is completely lit in green, you can remove the USB stick and the instal-

lation was successful.

Note: If the LED ring lights up red, there was an error during the installation. Check the pos-

sible solutions in the Troubleshooting chapter.

10) The repeater will then attempt to establish the connection with the WPM cloud. When the

LED ring lights up completely orange, the process has been successful and the repeater

should be reported as connected in the WPM cloud.

Note: If the LED ring does not light up completely in orange, check for possible causes in

the Troubleshooting chapter.

Troubleshooting

4 TROUBLESHOOTING

If an error occurs during configuration, this will be indicated by the colours of the LED ring. In

addition, a LOG file is written to the USB stick for more in-depth analysis. If the following table

does not result in a solution, send the LOG file to our support for error analysis.

In particular for checking the network configuration, an ifconfig.old.XXX.log is saved to the

USB stick in the "Logs" directory ifconfig.new.acXXX.log. In this file, you can find the assigned

IP address of the gateway before configuration and after configuration.
