The Light-O-Rama PixieLink controller is configured using a web page. The tricky thing about that is knowing the IP address of the controller so you can open the web page in a browser. This tool will take care of finding the IP address for you.
1.When you open the tool, it will display a list of network adapters attached to your computer. If your computer has WIFI only, you will probably only see 1 network listed. In the picture below, there are 3 networks. You need to select the network that will be scanned. In our example, we have selected the first network listed.
2.Click the Scan button. Depending on the number of devices on the network, it can take anywhere from 1 to 30 seconds to complete the scan.
3.After the scan is finished, the list of devices with web-based setup pages will be listed. You can click the IP address of the device you want to configure and this will open the web page in your default web browser.
4.After you are done with the scan page, click the Cancel button to return to the main Controller Setup view.
5.If you plug in a USB-to-Ethernet adapter after the Control Panel has started, you might need to click the "Refresh list of networks" button to see the new adapter in the list.
