  • iOS 13 or newer / Android 10 or newer: You will automatically be prompted to connect to the 'P1meterSetup' network. Press Connect.

  • Android 9 or older:

    1. Go to the Wi-Fi settings on your phone and connect to the Wi-Fi network 'P1meterSetup'.

    2. Enter the password:SetupPass.

    3. Go back to the HomeWizard app. You might see 'No internet connection available'. This message can be ignored, as your phone is now connected to the Wi-Fi network of the P1 Meter, which currently has no internet connection.

  • Select your Wi-Fi network from the list and enter your Wi-Fi password. Press Continue. The P1 Meter will now connect to your Wi-Fi network.
