Meshlium
1. Introduction
The aim of this manual is to introduce the user to Meshlium in a practical way.
This document applies to the following Meshlium model, approved for FCC and IC:
Model FCC ID IC
Meshlium 4G 802.15.4 AP 900 US XKM-MESHLIUM-V1 8472A-MESHLIUMV1
2. Meshlium general and safety information
The following list shows just some of the actions that produce the most common failures and warranty-voiding cases.
Failure to comply with the recommendations of use will entail the guarantee cancellation.
Software:
1. Use the Meshlium Manager web application in order to congure and setup Meshlium.
2. If you use the Manager System, you can always go to the default conguration by clicking the “Presets” button.
3. Do not interrupt the power supply before shutting down Meshlium properly through the “Shutdown” or “Restart” buttons
in the Manager System. If you do not do so you may take the system corrupted.
Hardware:
1. Do not open the Meshlium enclosure in any case. This will automatically make the warranty void.
2. Do not handle the numbered metallic seals in the screws of Meshlium: their integrity is the proof that the Meshlium
enclosure has not been opened. If they have been handled, opened or broken, the warranty is void.
3. Do not submerge Meshlium in liquids.
4. Do not place Meshlium on places or equipment where the device could be exposed to shocks and/or vibrations.
5. Do not expose Meshlium to temperatures below -20 ºC or above 50ºC.
6. Meshlium’s microprocessor must not overpass 70 ºC. The user must make sure that this temperature is never reached.
7. Do not power Meshlium with other power sources than the original provided by Libelium.

3. Meshlium’s Hardware Setup
This is the easiest hardware setup for Meshlium. Make sure you know how to do this setup.
1. Take the Meshlium casing and unscrew the Ethernet connector cap shown in the drawing.
2. Join the end that has the IP65 protection of the IP65 Ethernet cable to said connector and screw the cap on to x it.
* In the case you want to use the 4G radio, unscrew the other connector cap, and insert your micro-SIM card in the External SIM socket with care.
3. Connect the other end of the cable to the PoE input marked “PoE”. Make sure that the PoE is indoors.
4. Take the supplied PoE power adapter and plug it into the corresponding PoE connector.
5. Plug the other end of the adapter into the 220V socket and your Meshlium is now ready to operate.

At Libelium we oer equipment for operating at 12V, do not use other power supplies.

4. Turning on Meshlium
Meshlium includes an internal speaker which will emit “beep!” sounds when initializing, rebooting and shutting down in order
to inform about the state of the process.
Initialization beeps:
• 1 short beep when Meshlium is powered
• 2 long beeps when Meshlium has nished starting and it is ready to be used
Reboot and Shutting down beeps:
• 1 long beep when the reboot order is executed
• 2 long beeps when the system has been completely closed and Meshlium can be powered o.
Note: The “beep!” sound is not really loud so you will have to take attention and be close to the Meshlium box in order to hear them
clearly.
Note: It is highly important to wait for the 2 long beeps to power Meshlium o (do not remove the power cable from Meshlium until
you heard the 2 beeps). Otherwise, the system could be corrupted. Warranty does not consider this kind of failures.

5. Accessing Meshlium
5.1. Manager System
Meshlium comes with all the radios ready to be used. Just “plug & mesh!”. All the Meshlium nodes come with the WiFi AP ready
so that users can connect using their WiFi devices. Connect the Ethernet cable to your network hub, restart Meshlium and it will
automatically get an IP address from your network using DHCP *.
Then access Meshlium through the WiFi connection. First of all, look in your PC for the available access points and connect to
the one called “meshlium”.
Figure : Access Meshlium through the WiFi connection
No password is needed as the network is public (you can change it later in the WiFi AP Interface options). When you select it,
Meshlium will give an IP address from the range 10.10.10.10 to 10.10.10.250.
Now you can open your browser and access to the Meshlium Manager System:
• URL: http://10.10.10.1/ManagerSystem
• user: root
• password: libelium

You are now inside the Manager System, the tool for controlling all the features of Meshlium in an easy way. You can just browse
the tabs to explore the possibilities of Meshlium.
Further step for you could be to congure Ethernet or WiFi in a dierent way, if you have solid knowledge about computer
networks. Please be careful since you could leave Meshlium inaccessible.
