What shall i do first for WIFI control ?
Set the switch of the DMX interface in "AP" mode.
Connect your computer / mobile device which runs our software to the WIFI network of the DMX interface (name= D1024W ; password = 00000000).
Run our software and use the function "Autodetect interfaces" to control the DMX interface.
Or run our D1024W companion application of Android or iOS to change the WIFI parameters of the DMX interface.
All of this is well explained in the "D1024W" user manual.
