DEPRECATED: WiFi setup via smartphone app

We have deprecated this approach to WiFi setup due to inconsistent behaviour on the BerryLan App regarding the Bluetooth discovery phase of SpectroLink™.  However, this feature is still present in all SpectroLink™ devices and customers are welcome to try. For the default approach, refer to our guide for how to set it up via a USB drive.

The following is the procedure for setting up WiFi via the BerryLan App:

  1. Install the BerryLan WiFi connect app to your Android or iOS based device.
  2. Access the app and follow the instructions for setting up the WiFi on your SpectroLink™.
  3. Your SpectroLink™ will appear as “CPHNANO” on your iOS or Android device after 1 minute from powering it on.
  4. Click on "CPHNANO", fill out your SSID and Password. Once filled out, proceed. 
  5. If the correct WiFi credentials have been entered your SpectroLink™ should now be online.
