CONNECTION DIAGRAM Web Browser Access Internet Mobile Apps OvrC Web Server Router Use OvrC Web and smartphone apps to monitor the WattBox remotely WB-250-IPW-2 NETWORK RESET 5 INSTALLATION NOTE: This device always connects via the wired connection while it is physically connected to an active network switch port. The Wi-Fi capabilities are only activated when the device is not hardwired to a network. 1. Ensure the WB-250 is connected by ethernet cable to the internet. 2. Check the IP address of the WB-250 using an IP scanner or the routers client table. If your WB-250 will remain hardwired, skip to step 7 now. Optional Steps for Wireless Operation 3. Navigate to the IP address of the WB-250, and log in to its local interface. In the interface, navigate to Configure > Wireless IP Settings. Press the 4. Scan button. 5. Locate the SSID for your WAP or router. Select that SSID and log in to that wireless network. 6. Disconnect the Ethernet cable (otherwise the WB-250 continues to operate in wired mode). After a few minutes, the power LED turns from oraange to green, indicating that the unit is now operating wirelessly. Finishing the Install 7. Log in to your OvrC account. 8. Add the WB-250 using its MAC address and service tag (ST) number. You can now complete setup through OvrC. Ensure your firmware is up to date, schedule automatic reboots, and set up boot delays. 6 TROUBLESHOOTING Symptom A device wont power up when the WattBox is turned on. Possible Cause The WB outlet is switched off. The device is not turned on. WattBox is not receiving power (the LED does not illuminate 1 minute after connecting AC power). Speakers emit a humming or buzzing noise. WattBox is not turned on. No power is being supplied. Too many devices are connected. Surge protection has been consumed during a surge event. WattBox is sharing power with gear that is not properly grounded. Remedy Log in to the WattBox interface to turn the outlet on. Turn the devices power switch on. If the power button does not glow, press it. Ensure the WattBox is plugged into a properly grounded 120V outlet. Check the outlets switches and circuit breakers. Check the fuse on the AC Inlet. If it is blown, reduce the load and replace fuse. The unit needs to be replaced. Connect WattBox to a dedicated outlet. Unplug components one at a time to see if the noise stops. 7 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Read and observe the following safety points at all times. NOTICE For indoor use only.
