Stage 4 - Finding the SWS GUI (Graphic User Interface)
Open a web browser on a device that is on the same area network as your router. If you are not on the network, the GUI will not be accessible.
Your URL was provided when you registered your SWS. If you do not have this use your ID to create and enter the URL that will take you to your SWS GUI, an example is given below to show the format
Find your SWS ID on the label on the front of the SWS if you don't have this label anymore then it can be found by unclipping the back cover of the SWS.
This is what your SWS GUI will look like, don't forget to bookmark it so you can access it easily!
For more information on how to use your GUI follow this link: http://answers.seneye.com/en/Seneye_Products/sws/instructions/SWS_Graphic_User_Interface_(GUI)
If you cannot find your SWS GUI, then please contact us at [email protected]
Stage 5 - Connecting and updating your Seneye USB device
Connect your seneye USB device (SUD) directly to the SWS.
You must connect the SUD directly to the SWS and not use any form of extension leads as the SUD will not communicate correctly.
If the SWS has detected that the firmware is out of date, it will put the SUD in boot load mode, adn the SUD tile on the GUI will tell you to keep your device connected.
Do not disconnect your SUD from the SWS until the tile show the image below and the LEDs on the front of the SWS are still circling
Once the tile above is shows, and the lights have stopped circling, disconnect the SUD from the SWS and reconnect it to complete the update.
You will be able to see the update has been successful because the lights will illuminate. If the device is our of water, the lights on the front will flash as shown below:
Please make sure you keep your web server in dry place, away from water and humidity, if you are unable to do this please purchase our DRI box. Or follow the link to our commercial catalogue and take a look at our nodes which are more suited to outside conditions.
Stage 6 - Fit and register your slide: Register your slide
Stage 7 - Setting up a WiFi module
Now that your SWS is registered to your account and your SUD is connected, you can set up any adapters that you are using for the connection. If your SWS came with a WiFi adaptor module, please refer to the instructions in the link below as to how to set this up (we recommend setting the WiFi plug up as a Wifi adaptor/WiFi Bridge).
