2.1 Wiring Diagram
Connect an Ethernet network cable directly from the LED out port
of the controller to the first LED display frame. There should not
be any router or switch between the player and the screen.
Additionally, connect the network antenna to improve the range of
the Wi-Fi connection.
2.2 Connection to the Player’s Wi-Fi Access Point
During this process, ensure that your device remains connected
to the player’s Wi-Fi network.
- Go to the settings screen.
- Select Wi-Fi configuration.
- Check the list of available Wi-Fi networks and select the
player’s network (APXXXXXXXXX). The Wi-Fi network name (SSID) and
password can be found on a sticker on the side of the player. - Enter the player’s Wi-Fi password (12345678 by default) and
connect to the network. Note that this network provides no internet
access, but it is a direct connection to the LED display content
player.
If your device is configured to automatically connect to known
networks with an internet connection, you may need to disable this
option before connecting. On iOS devices, you can set the “ASK TO
LOGIN” option to “ASK” mode to prevent automatic logout. On Android
devices, you can enter the configuration of your usual Wi-Fi
networks and uncheck the option for automatic connection.
Step 3: Login to the Content Player
Once connected, you can log in to the content player using the
Viplex Handy app.
- Start the Viplex Handy app and select “LOCAL CONTROL”.
- Make sure you are still connected to the player’s Wi-Fi
network. - Tap on “CONNECT”.
If the connection is correct, the app will detect the player on
the screen as “TAURUS-XXXXXX”. If the connection is not correct,
the app will not detect the controller.
