Tapping on the gear/arrow brings you to the
configuration interface for the
dLAN 500 WiFi. For more detailed informa-
tion on the interface refer to Chapter 6 Net-
work configuration.
Tapping on the recycle bin removes the con-
nected adapters.
5.2.2 Settings menu
Tapping on the two gears brings you to the set-
tings menu for the respective adapter.
Here you have the option of assigning a unique new
name for yourself and to reset the respective device to
the factory default settings. In addition, you can
learn about device information such as the firmware
version in use and the individual MAC address.
5.2.3 Menu on the bottom edge of the
screen
The functions of the menu on the bottom edge of the
screen are self-explanatory and can be operated intui-
tively. Depending on which submenu you are in, the
following functions appear:
b Start: dLAN Cockpit start menu
b You can always use the Refresh option to display
the current status of devices that have been found
(if this hasn't happened automatically).
b During the initial installation of the adapter, select
the Add adapter option.
b The Troubleshooting guide contains additional
installation aids.
b Security: Tapping on the key icon allows you to
change the dLAN password for either the entire
dLAN network or just for the respective adapter or
to reset it to the factory defaults.
The factory default password is
HomePlugAV. For security reasons,
we recommend setting an
individualised dLAN password.
5.3 dLAN Cockpit
dLAN Cockpit is a monitoring and encryption
program that detects all reachable dLAN devices in
your home network and combines them in a secure
network. Due to its logical graphic design, the
dLAN Cockpit is easy and intuitive to operate. After
installing the devolo software, it can be found in the
Start
ı Programs ı devolo program group.
