      Setup/activate my light(s) WIFI-function

      Pre-steps
       
      First make sure that your light can support the WIFI upgrade. To do this look at the first 6 serial numbers on your light. If the light has a serial number starting with 002.005, then the light will support the WIFI upgrade. If the light has a serial number starting with 002.004. and below, then the light does not have the correct hardware to support the WIFI connection feature. 
       
      To setup/activate your WIFI-lights working wireless, please follow this procedure:
      1. Setup your router so that it is compatible with your WIFI lights [click here for description to do so].
      2. Download helioCONNECT and firmware for WIFI lights from their respective locations
      3. Launch helioCONNECT 
      4. Highlight your light(s) in helioCONNECT, and click "launch".
      5. In the light(s) Web User Interface set the same SSID(name) and password as your router has. (SSID "HelioConfig", and password "Conf5600K"). 
      6. Now your lights are ready to communicate wireless automatically. Test it by pulling out the ethernet cable of your light(s), re-open helioCONNECT, and click "Scan".
