Installation and first connection,
one step at a time.
The installation video will appear here.
For now, follow the quick-start guide below.
For the current V1 firmware.
Start with the receiver and node on a trusted local network.
Find the name printed on the base of your node. The four-character suffix comes from the last four digits of its Wi-Fi MAC address.
Match the label to your physical node. The suffix is derived from its Wi-Fi MAC.
Power the node using the correct supply for your hardware. On your computer, join SENSING NODE XXXX using MCSAXXXX from the label.
http://192.168.4.1Open that address in your browser. This setup network may show “No internet”; it connects directly to your node.
If your computer remembers an older password, forget the saved hotspot and join again.
The node uses automatic addressing (DHCP). Your receiver must be reachable on the selected network.
Start the supplied receiver on your computer. In node setup, choose Local gateway and enter the computer’s LAN IP address.
Your PC’s LAN IP5443Select Save & start. Allow inbound TCP 5443 on the receiver’s private network if its firewall blocks the connection.
Every node can use the same receiver IP and port. Use this prototype transport on a trusted local network.
After the receiver accepts the connection, the setup hotspot closes. Rejoin your normal network and open the dashboard on the receiver computer.
http://127.0.0.1:8000Confirm the node shows Receiving data and its sample count is increasing. Explore the waveform and live FFT.
Waiting for samples? See troubleshooting ↘Before connecting sensors: use the lab-approved wiring and power instructions. De-energize the measured circuit before changing CT connections or selector settings. This online quick start does not replace the final installation manual.
One place for the guide that belongs with your node. The final installation, operation and troubleshooting PDF is being prepared.
Enter the four characters at the end of your node’s Wi-Fi MAC address to see its label details. The local settings URL works over Wi-Fi and Ethernet.
This generates the address format; it does not discover or connect to a node. Local access requires the same network and mDNS support.
The TYPE and RANGE selectors apply
to all four current channels.
| Current sensor | TYPE / SW701 | RANGE / SW702 | Combination |
|---|---|---|---|
| CR3110-3000 | CR | 30 A | Supported |
| SCT-013-030 30 A / 1 V output | SCT | 30 A | Supported |
| CR3110-3000 | CR | 75 A | Supported |
| SCT + 75 A | SCT | 75 A | Unsupported |
Match the selected type to every connected CT. SCT conversion is available, but its reference calibration is unverified. Restart after correcting an invalid selection to clear a latched fault.
Check the node’s fault value in receiver diagnostics. A connected node can send status without acquiring samples. An invalid SCT + 75 A combination stops acquisition; fault 1 can also indicate analog-power or relay-feedback conditions. Correct the underlying issue and restart the node. Changing receiver ports will not clear a hardware fault.
Yes. The hotspot turns off after the receiver accepts the saved connection. Rejoin your normal network and use the node’s local settings address. On restart, the hotspot is available again until the receiver connects.
Yes. The current receiver accepts up to 16 TCP connections. Configure each node with the same receiver computer’s LAN IP and TCP port 5443. Select “All nodes” in the dashboard to inspect them together.
Stop the receiver backend and wait for acquisition to stop. Open the node’s local settings URL and choose “Change settings.” Closing the dashboard browser tab does not stop the receiver. Keep the receiver stopped while editing so it does not reconnect.
Ensure your computer and node are on the same local network. The hostname relies on mDNS, which some networks block. Use the node’s assigned Wi-Fi or Ethernet IP as a fallback. The hotspot address, 192.168.4.1, is for direct setup-network access.
Firmware 0.1.15 uses MCSA followed by the four uppercase Wi-Fi MAC suffix characters. For example, SENSING NODE F538 uses MCSAF538. Forget an older saved hotspot connection and reconnect using the printed password.
With the node powered, hold BOOT for 10 seconds. When both LEDs stay on, release BOOT to restart. This clears network setup while retaining calibration. An ordinary restart is enough to clear a latched fault after its cause has been corrected; it does not require a setup reset.
