¶ Magneto X Wifi Settings
Connecting your Magneto X to WiFi enhances its functionality, allowing for remote monitoring and operation. This section will guide you through the process of setting up WiFi using the Klipperscreen interface. Before you begin, note that the Magneto X supports WiFi standards 802.11 N/AC, ensuring a stable and fast connection. The WiFi antenna is pre-installed on your device; please locate it and inspect for any damages or misalignment before proceeding.
¶ 1 Locate the WiFi Antenna
Identify the Antenna: Check the documentation or look around the printer to locate the pre-installed WiFi antenna.
Inspect for Damage: Ensure the antenna is intact, properly attached, and not obstructed or damaged. If you notice any issues, address these before attempting to connect to WiFi.
¶ 2 Accessing WiFi Settings
Navigate to System Settings: On your Klipperscreen, go to the main menu and tap on 'Settings' to find network options.
Select WiFi Network: Look for a 'WiFi' submenu where you can access the WiFi settings.
Subsequently, a character prompt will pop up, indicating that the wifi is being connected. When "Connected" appears, the wifi connection is successful.
If you have tried many times but still unable to obtain wifi, please refer to these two methods to connect Magneto X to the network:
¶ 3 Verifying Connection
Once WiFi is connected, the WiFi network list will show much more info for the connected network, such as IP address and frequency.
Write down the ip number as you would need it later.
Troubleshoot If Needed:
If the connection fails, double-check your password and network name. Ensure your network is within range and operating on a compatible frequency for the 802.11 N/AC standards.
If the wifi connection is successful, but you cannot see your IP address, we recommend that you power off the printer and then restart it, then you can see the IP display.
