Setting Up Your Device: Browser

Step 1: Set Device to Provisioning Mode

The OTA device must be configured to the provisioning mode. This is done by turning the device on (put the batteries in). The device screen will flash, and the yellow LED will turn on solid. The device will attempt to connect to a Wi-Fi source for 15 seconds. After this time, the device will alert that no connection was established by alternating between the green and red LED with an audible beep.

Now, press the left and right buttons simultaneously on the device to enter the provisioning mode.

Step 2: Connect to Wi-Fi

On your Wi-Fi enabled device, connect to the Wi-Fi network “mysimplelink-57D475”. The last six digits of the network name are the last six digits of the OTA Node’s MAC Address. This will connect your phone to the OTA Node. See below for further instructions on how to connect your phone to a Wi-Fi network using an tablets, iOS, or Android device:
