Change Wi-Fi Settings (Using WDM)

If your WIFI-DAQ is already connected to a router (Station Mode) but you need to switch to another router (e.g., from "WPC Systems 1" to "WPC Systems 100"), you can quickly switch to AP Mode for configuration using the WDM (WPC Device Manager) tool.

Step 1: Enable AP Mode​

Please open the WDM software first, find your WIFI-DAQ device in the list, and click the AP Mode button on the right.

Go to AP Mode

Step 2: Confirm Execution​

WDM will pop up a window asking if you confirm switching to AP Mode. Click OK to continue.

Keep AP Mode

Step 3: Connect to Device Hotspot​

Next, WDM will prompt you to switch your computer's Wi-Fi connection to the WIFI-DAQ hotspot (AP). Please manually connect your computer to the corresponding device AP, then click OK in the dialog box.

Step 4: Auto-open Configuration Page​

After clicking OK, WDM will automatically open the web browser and redirect to the WIFI-DAQ configuration page (192.168.4.1).
