Figure 2: Transmitter

  1. Firstly, please charge the two MODA WiFi transmitters (1). To do this, connect them to the USB port of your computer using the enclosed charging cable (3). During the first charging process, it is important that the computer is connected to the Internet so that Windows can download a corresponding driver. The transmitter is charging when the LED (10) lights up orange and is fully charged when the LED goes out again. A complete charging process takes approx. 3 hours. The battery life of the transmitter is around 8 hours. When the battery is low, the LED (11) lights up red. Alternatively, the transmitters can also be charged using a USB socket adapter, similar to (7).

    Remark:
    If you do not use the transmitter for several weeks, please charge the battery beforehand. Otherwise a deep discharge may occur. This is harmful to a lithium-ion battery!
  2. Install the GP Manager from the enclosed data carrier.
  3. The router (4) must be supplied with power during the measurement process. There are two ways of doing this, depending on the area of application. If you mainly use MobilData WiFi within the same premises, it is advantageous to connect the router to a nearby power socket. Use the charging cable (6) and the supplied adapter (7) for this. For mobile applications, you can supply the router with power via the USB port of your computer/laptop.Remark: Please do not press the reset button on the router. This would mean that you would no longer be able to carry out measurements, as important settings would be deleted.
  4. Data is transferred between the transmitter and computer via WLAN. The WLAN stick turns your computer into a WLAN-capable end device. Please plug the WLAN stick (5) into a free USB port on your computer.

    Attention:
    It is strongly recommended to connect the stick to the computer via a USB extension. Due to the shielding effect of the computer housing and interference fields arising in the computer, problems may otherwise occur with the connection and/or the measurement.
    In addition, Bluetooth devices transmit in the same frequency range, which further impairs the connection. A greater distance from these sources of interference leads to a more stable connection.

    The stick installs itself automatically if an Internet connection is available. If your PC already has a WLAN interface because you are using MobilData on a laptop, for example, you can also use the internal WLAN interface on your device.
