Configuration Mode #4
Description
Overview
The TI Wi-Fi booster pack has capabilities to become an access point and host a website that is accessible when connected to the access point. Users will be able to use any Wi-Fi enabled device with a web browser to connect to the AP and access the website where they will be able to edit information stored on the chess board micro. Information they will be able to edit includes the SSID of the network they want the chess board to connect to, the security type of that network, the password for the network (if applicable), and the user's display name. Once changing the information, users should save their changes before selecting the option to close the access point and restart the chess board as normal.
Users will be able to activate this configuration mode by holding down the left and right buttons and then powering on the chess board. The LCD should display that the chessboard is in configuration mode and show the SSID of the AP the user needs to connect to.
