MCLWIE01 -- WLAN Connector
Product Description
The device enables control of Aqua-Scope KFR motors (KFRLWE02) via WLAN. The component is screwed into the waterproof power supply coupling of the motor and offers two communication methods:
- IoT Protocol MQTT: Requires an external MQTT broker (details in the developer manual)
- Smart Home Integration: Direct connection via JSON webhooks (details in the developer manual)
Power is supplied through the power supply cable into which the module is installed.
Connection and Communication
The WLAN setup is performed via the device's configuration page (SSID "Scope"). A detailed step-by-step guide can be found at WLAN Connection.
