Network connection and myGHL
Network connection and myGHL
Anyone know if the Doser 2 pumps can be reversed so the rubber tubes point up? I'd like to put it flat on something.
Answer to my previous question is yes. It was very simple. Just unclip, pull out, flip, push in and reclip.
Also, for anyone trying to setup myGHL or connect over your LAN there are a few things you should know. My Doser came with firmware 1.12.
A. You can use their auto detect to find your wireless network. Sometimes it doesn't see it right away but it eventually does. I statically assigned an IP address. Tested ping from my desktop to validate.
B. You can connect to the Doser 2 via a web browser by entering the IP. There's a limited interface there where you can change Administrator and network settings as well as update firmware. That's it. The web interface is not the Control Center.
C. Once you get the Doser 2 addressed and on your network, able to ping, create a new network TCP/IP connection using the Administrate button of the Control Center. Enter the IP address of the Doser. Port number didn't matter, I left it as is. Make sure the Doser is not connected to your PC via USB. Then click the connect button for your new network connection. You should be able to get to access it wirelessly, unless you're using a cabled connection.
D. After all that is done, then you can setup myGHL. Don't try to setup myGHL until you do all that first. I spent a long time trying to add the Doser to myGHL when it was connected via USB and not connected via USB, but still network addressed. It didn't matter. Only after you've created your new network connection and connect to it with the Control Center will myGHL see the Doser and it's the only way you can get the Verification code required for myGHL.
These things were not very clear in the instructions. Someone should spend some time re-writing those. It would be a simple effort and save a lot of people a lot of time and frustration.
