Expert Settings

The expert settings are available in Setup mode and allow you to access advanced settings.

Enable WiFi option

The WiFi option allows you to enable or disable WiFi connectivity for Connect Gateway setup. Keep in mind that this option is not recommended. If possible always use an ethernet connection.

Reset devices via app

This feature allows you to reset mesh devices directly from the app without physical access. This is useful for:

  • Troubleshooting: Reset devices that are not responding
  • Network reconfiguration: Remove devices from the network
  • Factory reset: Return devices to their original state
danger

Resetting a device will remove it from the network and delete all its configuration. The device will need to be re-added to the network.

Update mode via app

Update mode allows you to control how firmware updates are applied to devices in your network. Options include:

  • Automatic: Updates are applied automatically when available
  • Manual: Updates require manual approval before installation
  • Scheduled: Updates are applied at specific times
  • Disabled: No automatic updates
tip

Automatic updates ensure your devices always have the latest features and security patches.

Manually update devices

This section allows you to manually trigger firmware updates for specific devices or the entire network. You can:

  • Check for updates: Scan for available firmware updates
  • Update individual devices: Update specific devices
  • Update all devices: Update the entire network at once
  • View update history: See which devices have been updated
note

Manual updates may take several minutes and should be performed when the network is not in active use.

Current provisioner address

The provisioner address is a unique identifier for your app instance in the mesh network. This address is used for:

  • Network identification: Distinguishes your app from other provisioners
  • Message routing: Ensures messages are sent to the correct destination
  • Security: Part of the network's security framework
info

The provisioner address is automatically assigned and should not be changed unless you're experiencing network conflicts.

Reset the app

The app reset function allows you to completely reset the Connect Mesh app to its factory settings. This will:

  • Clear all networks: Remove all configured networks
  • Delete device data: Remove all device configurations
  • Reset preferences: Return to default app settings
  • Clear cache: Remove all cached data

This action cannot be undone. All your network configurations and device settings will be permanently lost. Make sure to create backups before proceeding.
