To have an effective change. Click the SAVE button at the end of the "Setting" page and reboot E-BOARD from the "Reboot" page.
From the Home page go to the Network page. You should see a page similar to the following picture.
The Network page allows you to:
- Setup the IP connection
- Setup the SNTP server
- Setup the MQTT connection
To setup the IP connection you can use DHCP or set a Static IP. The default value is to use DHCP.
The following table shows the available settings:
| Ref. | Description |
|---|---|
| DHCP Client | When enable, E-BOARD uses Dynamic IP |
| IP Address | Set E-BOARD static IP address |
| Network Mask | Set the static network mask |
| Gateway | Set the static gateway |
| DNS | Set the static DNS |
The SNTP server address synchronizes the E-BOARD internal time. Once the time is synchronized the E-BOARD can schedule internal operations. At every hour E-BOARD synchronizes the system time with the SNTP server.
The following table shows the available setting:
| Ref. | Description |
|---|---|
| SNTP | Server address to synchronize the system time |
Info
To verify that the E-BOARD system time has been updated check the Device Information on the About page.
E-BOARD allows control and status updates over MQTT for both Relay and Shutter outputs.
To setup the client MQTT connection use the following configuration setting:
| Ref. | Description |
|---|---|
| Server | Set MQTT server address |
| Port | Set MQTT server port |
| Username | Set Username to connect to MQTT server |
| Password | Set Password to connect to MQTT server |
| MQTT ID | Set MQTT ID E-BOARD name |
Important
It is recommended to use a friendly name in the MQTT ID setting. For example: E-BOARD-Garden.
Info
The MQTT ID name must be unique between all devices with active connections to the MQTT server.
Info
Check the Device Information on the About page to verify that E-BOARD is connected to the MQTT server.
