If you prefer not to configure a HAM device through our application as recommended, you can register your WiFi credentials directly on the device using a laptop or desktop computer. This process involves connecting to the Access Point of the HAM device and is fairly straightforward.

1. Connect the HAM device to the panel

2. Press the corresponding button until the green LED starts flashing. Wait at least 3 minutes for the device to create its own WiFi access point.

3. Verify that the device's Access Point is enabled by referring to the "Available WiFi Networks" tab on your computer located on the bottom right side of your screen.

4. In this tab, you will see all available networks near your computer. You should see a WiFi with a format name: "HAMXX_XXXX" This is the device's Access Point.

5. In this tab, you will see all available networks near your computer. You should see a WiFi with the format name: "HAMXXXX_XXXX" This is the device's Access Point.

If you do not see a network with the name "HAMXX_XXXX" in the list and at least 3 minutes have passed since the device was connected to power, then unplug it and repeat the procedure from the beginning.

6. Then connect to WiFi "HAMXX_XXXX". The code you will be prompted for is the Device Key (D/K), which you can find on the back of the device, or in the instruction booklet. If you can't find it, follow the instructions in the related article by clicking here.

7. Once you have connected to the device's Access Point, open a browser, preferably Google Chrome, and type the following in the search bar: "192.168.4.1".

8. On the page that appears, enter the name and password of the WiFi to which you want the HAM device to connect and click "Submit".

9. You should be presented with a message "You can close this window now and go back to the app". Even if it doesn't display this you will know that the process is complete since it disconnects you from the device's Access Point. As long as you have correctly set your WiFi credentials, your device is now connected to the internet.

** In case the green LED is completely off, this means that the device has received the WiFi data you gave it, but cannot connect to the internet.
