Adding devices

You can add devices automatically or manually.

The Firmware Updater automatically discovers devices in your network when you open the application.

To a add new device with Automatic Device Discovery:
  1. All discoverable devices are listed within 10 seconds of scanning.
  2. Devices show name, type, and IP address.
  3. The list updates automatically when devices join or leave the network.
  4. A manual refresh option is available if needed.

    If no devices are found:
    • A message will indicate no devices were found.
    • Check that devices are powered on and connected to the same network.
    • Try adding devices manually using their IP address.
To add a new device manually:
If devices don't appear automatically, you can add them manually.
  1. Click on Add by IP.
  2. Enter the device's IP address (e.g., 192.168.1.100).
  3. Click on Add Device.

    What the system checks:
    • Valid IP address format
    • No duplicate IP addresses already in your list
    • Device is reachable on the network
    Error messages you might see:
    • Device with this IP already exists
    • Invalid IP format
    • Device not reachable
    • Connection timed out – please check the device or network
