Week 12 - Done on setting up the wifi shield !

Tuesday, 23 October 2012

As salam..

Regarding on the post last week, I had decided went
to Shah Alam to meet En.Azmi regarding on the
problem of wifi shield V2.2. I met En.Azmi and Nik,
one of person that had experienced in Arduino.

Nik helped me to set up the wifi.
At first, it still give no result.
I'm worried it might be hardware problem as
what Sir Zul said.
Nik keep tried. Alhamdulillah..
the wifi shield V2.2 is gave a response.
That means the wifi is well-functioned.

The way he sets up, he used a Putty configuration.
Which Putty also the software that functioned
same like WizSmartScript. The software is looks
like as shown below :

First step :
1)   Set the Putty Configuration with serial line
      which is the COM port and also the speed
      as a baud that fixed in 115200.

2)   Clicked "Open".
       It will show as below:


By display this, you can send AT commands to Wifi
module through your serial terminal according the
command. As you see [OK] that display in the Putty,
it's a response from the wifi. When the response is
received, means the wifi is in a good condition.

At the same time, I had be informed by Nik,
before I send the AT commands, I should find
out the IP address, gateway and also the subnet
of the wireless router.

To find it, clicked "Start", type "run" and
type cmd, and OK.
It will display the IP address, gateway and
the subnet.

When in AT commands, the end number
of IP address should change with the other
number. Like an example, IP address for
the wireless router: 192.168.10.101,
so, it need to change to 192.168.10.105
The number can be change with any
numbers.
The reason you change this IP address is
to make this wifi shield as a server.

When it is done, you put the IP address
and port in Putty configuration like below :

The port is 4000 is fixed.
As Nik mentioned, this is common port
in networking line. The, clicked OPEN.
It will display like below :

You can see the configuration is already
display the IP address that we set in AT command.
So means the wifi is already acted as a server. Then,
by opening the serial monitor, it will display
"Connect..."
when the "Welcome to dfrobot" is typed in putty,
the serial monitor will receive the "Welcome to dfrobot".

So, means the wifi is successful.
All this really helpful for me to proceed my part
by follow the instruction as Nik already mentioned
to me.
Thank you to Nik and also En.Azmi. :)
