JVA WA100 100W Solar Panel WiFi Anywhere

Introduction

The PTE2703 JVA Wi-Fi Anywhere (WA100) provides an integrated Wire-less Cellular USB Dongle (Wingle) power supply with a solar battery char-ger and management system.
This product provides a Wi-Fi network wherever a 3G/4G signal is avail-able*. The Wi-Fi can then be used to connect an IP device or Internet of Things (IoT) device to the Cloud (Internet).
The JVA Solar Wi-Fi Anywhere is installed with an ALDI SIM card at the factory, all you need to do is:

Register the SIM card
Connect any Wi-Fi-enabled device to the network provided

This quick-start guide explains how to deploy your WA100 and connect a battery ready for Wi-Fi connections.
An external cellular antenna (included) may be connected to increase reception. An upgraded YAGI style antenna is available from [email protected]

USB_5V LED off	USB device drawing too much current	Unplug the USB device, check for damage/ seek manufacturer advice

Fault	Likely Cause	Remedy
Battery not charging	Solar wiring backward	Check that the Solar + goes to the left-hand screw terminal
	Broken cables	Check that the battery cables are not dammed- aged
	Solar panel broken	Check solar panel for physical damage (broken glass, bent frame etc.)

If the unit is still not working correctly, contact your nearest JVA distributor for technical support.

Before you start

Activate the SIM card

Activate your SIM card and test it in a mobile phone. The Wi-Fi network allows a data-only connection, the number of devices connected to the module will determine how much data will be used.
As a guide, a single IP Energiser or IP Monitor will use less than 1MB per day, so for connecting a single IP Energiser, an upper limit of 500MB per year is an option with a lot of headroom.

Deployment and Orientation

Unpack the solar kit from it’s packaging. Look inside the packaging for a set of U-Bolts.
Remove the U-Bolts from the zip lock bag and mopunt it to the top and bottom panel of the bracket.
1. U-Bolt x 2
2. Top or Bottom Panel
3. Washers x 4
4. Spring Washers x 4
5. Hex Nut x 4
Loosen the 6 bolts on the inside of the frame that are used to hold the solar panel at a right angle. DO NOT completely remove these bolts
Lift the bottom of the solar panel until the attached arms holding it are angled at 90 degrees. Tighten all 6 bolts again from step 3.
Attach the red and black eyelet crimps to the battery

Alternative wiring:
1. The following diagram shows an alternative method for wiring the Solar Kit. The battery is connected directly to the solar kit and the Wi-Fi device.
2. The solar kit will have a spare connector (load cable), but the solar kit will still operate properly.
