Setup

Set + Reset

Configuring FT Device:

Your FT device temporarily (when in ‘factory’ state) broadcasts its own wireless network, allowing user connection for entering configuration information.

  • Using a computer/phone/tablet with wi-fi, look for the wireless network named ‘FERRY TEMPO ...’ . Join it.
  • After a few moments, the configuration page should automatically open. If it does not open after 10-15s, enter setup.ferrytempo.com into your web browser. (If that doesn't work, try entering 192.168.4.1)
  • Follow the on-screen dialogue to set up your FT device.
  • Allow up to 30 seconds for connection to the FT cloud server.
  • Your FT device should now be working. If curious, confirm vessel positions via comparison at WSF's VesselWatch.

Resetting FT Device:

  • Triple-click the RESET button on the back of your FT (while the clock is connected to power, of course). The microcontroller can be sensitive to the spacing of clicks, so a nice ‘Wenatchee’ count is advised.
  • The device should then initiate a short startup ‘Shakedown Sequence’ (hands move west, then east with lamps activating, then center themselves whilst all lamps pulse).
  • Your FT device is now in ’Setup Mode’ (only in this state will it broadcast a wi-fi signal that your devices can connect to, allowing configuration).
  • Follow the instructions above for 'Configuring FT Device'.

Troubleshoot

The wireless network 'FERRY TEMPO ...' is not found.

Your FT will only broadcast a visible wi-fi network when it has no stored information aboard (aka 'factory' state). If you need to make changes to it, follow the instructions above for 'Resetting FT Device'.

The webpage 'setup.ferrytempo.com' is not loading when entered into a browser.

The configuration page is not a webpage that can be found on the internet, but is served directly from your FT. Therefore, it must be powered on, in 'factory' state (if your FT device is not brand new, see 'Resetting FT Device' above), and you must be connected to its wirelss network 'FERRY TEMPO ...' with the wi-fi device you are using for configuration.

How do I change/update FT device settings?

If you've changed your wireless internet password, or moved your FT (or yourself) to a new home port, follow the instructions above for 'Resetting FT Device'.
