Connection Method through Wi-Fi
This section describes the procedure to connect to TP App through Wi-Fi using an Android tablet.
For recommended tablets, refer to "Recommended Specifications for Android-supported Tablet".
Refer to "Preparing Wi-Fi Connection" if Wi-Fi connection setting (setting for wireless LAN router or IP address of COBOTTA, etc.) is not configured.
Refer to "Information on Safety during Wi-Fi Connection" if these precautions have not yet been referred to.
After the power-on of COBOTTA, the status display LED blinks dark green until the start-up process completes. While the status display LED blinks, COBOTTA cannot accept any access from TP App, WINCAPSIII, nor COBOTTA parameter tool.
