Total 5 steps to find out IP address.
Step-1: chose your computer network adapter when you are using.
Step-2: chose your computer IP address item.
Step-3: click “StartMonitorPort” button.
Step-4: click “SCAN” button.
Step-5: board’s ethernet or WiFi IP address , ID and type name will be listed.
If you first time power on , you board will be found by ethernet IP address. Because your WiFi is work as “AP” mode as default. After you config your WiFi as “STA” mode, you will find out the WiFi IP address by KinCony scan device tool.
You can use ethernet IP address login by web browser to config board setting.
Note: if you want config only by WiFi, when power on, your computer will find the “AP” hotspot, WiFi signal named “board name” + “ID”.
Let your computer connect to the “AP”, it’s without password, after you connected, just use http://192.168.4.1 to login by webpage.
If you can’t see the “AP”, you can “hold on” board’s function button (ESP32 GPIO0) >10 seconds, then board will be set to factory, default state is “AP”.
