  5. You will need to set your wireless mode properly, please check with your admin on how to setup the wifi. The following are specific settings for the wifi:
    1. Profile Name: This can be any descriptive name
    2. ESSID: This must match your wifi name and will match the same name that you would see on a PC or SmartPhone when you scan for wifi networks.
    3. Operating Mode: Infrastructure is the most common. Ad-hoc requires a lot more settings.
    4. Country: USA most likely.
    5. Security Modes: This should match your security setting on the wifi. Below are some descriptions of options:
      1. Legacy(Pre-WPA): This is used for WEP systems
    6. Authentication: None is most common
    7. Encryption (The following settings are if you are WEP or Legacy (Pre-WPA) settings:
      1. Open: If your wifi has no encryption.
      2. WEP-40
      3. WEP-128
    8. Preshared Key: If your security key is 26 numbers, then most likely youare using Hexadecimal Keys rather than Pass-Phrase. Be sure to set the option for Hexadecimal or Pass-Phrase to match your wifi setting.
    9. UNCHECK "For added security- Mask characters entered". This is VERY important because this device is so hard to enter letters and characters, if you can't see the entered data, you will probably make a mistake. This does not affect your security except whil you are entering the password. To uncheck this, tab to that field and then select the 0 key.

  11. Press the blue button and ESC
  12. You should see signal bars in the top right of the screen
  13. Once at the Config screen press 0 to return to the Home screen


It's a good idea to test the wifi to make sure it's working properly as it's possible to see the wireless bars, but not really have proper access.

  1. From the main screen select Configure>Wireless Companion>Wireless Diagnostics>Ping or Traceroute.
  2. Enter a IP address such as 4.2.2.2 which is accessible from anywhere and accepts pings (and is a little easier to enter).
  3. Select Enter
  4. If your wifi is setup properly, you should see a successful Rx or traceroute.
  5. If you are not getting a successful receive on the ping or traceroute, then you will need to reconfigure your wifi settings. You will need to get help from the wifi network admin because there are numerous wifi settings and passwords that High 5 Software would not know.

WebService[edit]

Note: This section is only required if you have not setup webservice for SME yet. The same webservice is used for TechPortal, Android for SME, CustomerPortal, SubcontractorPortal, and incoming Automated email for SME, so if you already have these products, you will not need to re-install the webservice.

If you do not have WebServices, go to this page for installation instructions: SME Web Services Installation Guide or CustomerPortal and TechPortal Install Guide
