Wireless Data transfer

The JedEye offers two distinct modes for wireless connectivity:

  1. Access Point Mode (AP): The device creates its own WiFi network. You connect your phone or laptop directly to the JedEye's network to access data.
  2. Station Mode (Local Network): The device connects to an existing local WiFi network (like your home or office router). This allows you to access the JedEye while remaining connected to the internet.

The JedEye as Wireless Access Point​

Navigate to OPTIONS > WIFI > WIFI AP(OFF) and select the entry. This will create a wifi network to which you can connect any of your devices equipped with a webbrowser. When the wifi is on an icon alt text will be displayed in the upper croner of the screen. If not connection occur during 5 min the wifi will automatically turn off to save battery.

In the OPTIONS > WIFI menu you'll find an entry called Wifi Start. When this is on the Wifi will be automatically on during 30s when the device starts. If no connection happens it will turn off.

The wireless network created is ( SSID: JedEye Password: password), connect your device and navigate to http://192.168.4.1 (as displayed below the main menu).
