GoFree™ wireless With a WIFI-1 unit connected to a HDS Gen2 unit with 2.0 software, you can use a wireless device to remotely view the HDS display. Displaying HDS data on a wireless device requires a corresponding app. Please check the appropriate Apple or Android store for your device. ¼¼ Note: In this document we have used the term wireless devices. Graphics from iPad and the Apple app Store are used as examples. The wireless functionality, however, is provided for other vendors' tablets or smartphones, and those can be used for viewing the HDS display when the relevant apps are available. ¼¼ Note: Installation and wiring for the WIFI-1 unit are described in the separate WIFI-1 Installation Guide. ¼¼ Note: GoFree wireless is not compatible with HDS Gen1 units. If an HDS Gen1 unit is on the same network as a GoFree module, networking will no longer be functional. Setting HDS device name You will only need to change your unit's name when HDS units on the network have the same default device name. Setting up the WIFI-1 Connect the WIFI-1 unit to the HDS unit with the Ethernet cable supplied with the WIFI-1 unit -- The WIFI-1 access point will now be listed in the HDS menu | 11
