Network 1 (ap0) Link

Description

 

Settings (continued)

 

 

Mode

Select the desired mode for the link connection from the drop-down menu:

 

 

Always Up: when enabled, the SoftAP is always on.

 

 

Triggered: when enabled, the SoftAP operates in Triggered mode.

 

 

Triggered AP mode is a means to enable the xPico Wi-Fi SoftAP via a

 

 

hardware signal. This allows a user to have the SoftAP operating only

 

 

when an external signal/button is activated. This might be useful when

 

 

power consumption is a concern yet the SoftAP is needed. One

 

 

potential use is device provisioning. When triggered, the SoftAP will

 

 

remain active for the configured uptime waiting for a client to connect. If

 

 

no client connects before the uptime expires, the SoftAP goes back

 

 

down. If one or more clients connect, the SoftAP will remain active until

 

 

the last client disconnects, at which point it will go down. Refer to

 

 

Chapter 7: Configurable Pin Manager for details on how to set up the

 

 

xPico Wi-Fi unit for this feature

 

 

 

 

Uptime

Enter the length of uptime for the link connection.
