Connecting the Luxor Wi-Fi using the Direct Mode

Tabs

Read Article

The Luxor Power Controller can be placed in Direct Mode which allows an iOS or Android device to connect directly over the Luxor Wi-Fi to a single controller. This removes the need to go through the Home Wi-Fi router or network in order to communicate with the Luxor Power Controller. The Direct Connection Mode can also be used to test the Luxor Wi-Fi module and App operation prior to connection to a Home Wi-Fi router or network.

FAQ, Installation

Step 1

To initiate Direct Mode, turn the navigation dial to the Setup mode on the Luxor facepack. Press the dial once to enter the Setup screen.

Step 2

Turn the navigation dial to the Wi-Fi selection, and then press the dial to enter Wi-Fi Setup.

Step 3

If the display shows Direct Connect Ready, the Luxor is already in the Direct Mode. The Network name will display Luxor. If the controller ID has been named, you will see Luxor followed by controller ID on the Network Display. If the display shows WiFi: Connected to Router, you will need to switch to Direct Mode.

Step 4

To switch to Direct Mode, press the navigation dial when Network is highlighted, then press the navigation dial once more time to switch to Direct Mode. Luxor should display WiFi Direct Connect Ready.

On your iOS or Android device, turn on Wi-Fi and navigate to network selection. The Direct Mode Luxor will be listed. Connect to the appropriate Luxor Wi-Fi. No password is required to associate with the Luxor.

Once attached, the Luxor can now be directly controlled through the FX App on your iOS or Android device.

If the iOS or Android device does not connect to the Luxor, shut down FX App on device, then cycle the power on the Luxor and try to connect again. If connection attempt is not successful, reset the Wi-Fi module and try to connect again.

Reminder, please cycle power to the Luxor after Direct Mode if Luxor is to be reconnected to a Wi-Fi Router.
