Profilux II plus aquarium controller

@ niloc16: "when i go into device/installer it does not locate any lantronix device. and if does locate one after about 15 searches it will lose the connection during setup."

did you download the newest version of my tutorial as I wrote you? Follow again page 1 and 2 so you will see the card. Check if the device installer is really using the correct network as explained on top of page 3. With this methode you will for sure find the WLAN card.

I had the same problems when I was reprograming my card after I did the initial setup. After soft or hardreset of the WLAN card, the card has a total different range of IP as it had initally when you got it from fractory. This has to do with Windows and we all had to learn this the hard way as you do now.

We where looking at the first IP the WLAN card had, but it was not there. Only when you let your PC aquire automatically a new IP from your WLAN card by using DHCP the WLAN will tell you in witch IP range it is now hiding. But during doing this you must make sure that no other network (like your router or your LAN) is disturbing this process.

thanks big blue. question for you. i have two computers at home, one connected to the modem/wireless router hard wired and the other computer is connected wirelessly to this unit. i have been trying to connect to the controller with the computer that is wireless, is this right or should i be using the computer that is hardwired to the router?

hi niloc16

in any case you must establish the connection directly (ad hoc) for the initial settings!
Please use the wireless computer for configuring with Deviceinstaller and shut off the router while this procedure, maybe he would disturb this process!
Please tell me when you got access to the PLM-WLAN, than i will go on with support and tell you what to do next.

And don't forget:
- assign a static IP to your wireless notebook before searching the device with DeviceInstaller
- if not allready done: Reset the WLAN settings in Profilux to defaults
