Connecting your PETLIBRO Automatic Cat Feeder to Wi-Fi allows you to manage feeding schedules and portions through the app. Here's a step-by-step guide:
Before you begin, ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your mobile device.
Wi-Fi Connection Requirements:
- The feeder operates best indoors, away from direct sunlight.
- It connects to 2.4GHz Wi-Fi networks; ensure your network is compatible. If your router broadcasts only a 5GHz signal, you'll need to enable 2.4GHz compatibility.
- Your Wi-Fi password should be no more than 12 characters and contain only letters and numbers; special characters are not supported.
- Keep the feeder close to your router, ideally within 6 meters without obstructions.
To Connect via the PETLIBRO App:
- Open the PETLIBRO app and go to the Home page.
- Tap "Add Device" or the "+" icon.
- Select "PLAF101 Wi-Fi Feeder" from the device options.
- Follow the on-screen prompts, confirming the Wi-Fi indicator on the feeder is flashing.
- Choose "Bluetooth" at the top right of the app screen.
- Enable Bluetooth on your phone.
- Verify the indicator on the feeder flashes once every 0.5 seconds.
- Tap "Next" after confirming the indicator flash. If the indicator doesn't flash, use the "Reset Device Step by Step" option in the app to troubleshoot.
- Enter your Wi-Fi credentials (remember to select your 2.4GHz network) to add the device "PLAF101".
If the configuration fails, reset the feeder by pressing and holding the reset button for 6 seconds, then wait two minutes before attempting to connect again. Once connected, you can fully control the PETLIBRO feeder via the app.
