3. Getting to know your WS-01

LED Indicators: Lights indicate activity in four areas: Battery/Power, LAN, SD Card, and Wi-Fi.

USB Port: Connect your Ziggi or P2V for live streaming, or connect a USB drive for file sharing.

LAN Port: Plug in an Ethernet cable (not included) to connect to your existing internet network. (Note: when connecting in this manner, please set the WS-01's wireless connection to "Off (Ethernet Cable)" in the "Internet Connection" setting. See Page 20 for instructions.)

USB Charging Connector : This built-in cord can be used in two ways:

• Plug in to the included AC adapter to charge WS-01's battery
• Plug in to a computer's USB port to use WS-01 as an SD card reader

Reset Button: Press the button with a pin or paper clip to reset the device. After pressing the reset button, WS-01 will reboot in 3-5 seconds. The Wi-Fi LED indicator will start blinking red and blue, and will take about 100 seconds for WS-01 to complete the booting process.

13. FAQ

- I forgot my network name (SSID) or Admin password.

Use a pin or paper clip to press the Reset button on WS-01 to reset the device. WS-01 will reboot after 3-5 seconds. It takes about 100 seconds for WS-01 to complete the booting process.

- Can I stream video from WS-01 on multiple devices simultaneously?

Yes. But due to bandwidth limitations, it is not recommended to have more than 3 devices streaming video from WS-01 simultaneously. Connecting to WS-01 with multiple devices may cause Live View to lag.
