Onboarding and network connection
Twinkly Plus has an automatic identification system of the device connected to the controller and a Bluetooth connection system.
Unlike Twinkly PRO Wi-Fi controllers and Retails devices, it also has Ethernet, so it can be connected with a network cable to a wired network.
The setup process in Wi-Fi mode is the same as Generation II devices, using Bluetooth feature, whereas if you choose Ethernet connection mode you just need to connect it to your router with a network cable or a network switch, and the App will find it as already connected when you add a device.
Please keep in mind that if you have already connected Twinkly Plus in Wi-FI mode, to switch to Ethernet just plug the network cable into the router and automatically the device will connect in Ethernet mode, without having to take any action on the App.
Vice versa, if you have already connected Twinkly Plus in Wi-Fi mode, you have switched to Ethernet and now you want to switch back to Wi-Fi again, simply disconnect the network cable.
However, if you have never connected the device in Wi-Fi mode, after removing the network cable, you will need to proceed with the App onboarding procedure.
