Installing the HomeStation Wi-fi Configurator Software on Apple computer

During the registration process you will be asked to download the Wi-fi Configurator Software. Alternatively you can download it here.

You will also follow these steps to connect to your phone's hotspot if you need to use a mobile HomeStation.

Here is a video of the installation:


Step by Step explanation:

Ensure the HomeStation is NOT plugged in when you start software

STEP 1:

Please wait up to 5 min. after plugging the HomeStation to your computer as it might need to download the right driver in the background. If it doesn't change, press here. 

This is what you should see after you connect HomeStation:


STEP 2:

Choose your Network on the left side and once it is added you will see it under the Known Networks column on the right. You can then press on Finish Setup. We advice that you add your mobile hotspot as the 1st Wi-fi as this will help if you need to make a mobile HomeStation. More on this here

WHAT TO DO NEXT

The next steps are:
  1. Connect the HomeStation to the mains. Please place it near a window and on your house's top floor or as high as possible.
  2. Place the collar on your HomeStation, LEDs on the collar will flash.
  3. Check your portal, it should show as charging and the Radio icon will be Full.
  4. Activate the search mode (magnifying glass) 
  5. Put your collar outside (under open sky)
  6. Once valid GPS positions are found your collar is ready for use. Ensure the collar is fully charged before placing it on your cat.

We suggest using the collar in Fast mode for a couple of weeks. This way you will get to know your cats natural territory very quickly.

Please also note that our apps are now available for download in the AppStore and GooglePlayStore.
