Installation Guide

Step-by-step instructions to set up your SmartOutlet device

Get MAC Address from ESP32 Device

Power on your ESP32 device (plug it in or connect power)
Look at the OLED display (small screen on the device)
The MAC address will be shown on the OLED screen when the device starts
Copy the MAC address from the display (format: XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX)

                    ════════════════════════════════════

                    📱 Device MAC Address: XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX

                    ════════════════════════════════════

Example of what you’ll see on the OLED screen.

Register Device in Dashboard

Log in to your Landlord dashboard
Go to "Device Installation" page
Fill in the Outlet Name (e.g., "Room 101 Outlet 1")
Paste the MAC Address you copied from the OLED display
Optionally add Location and Room Number
Click "Install Device" button
A unique Device Token will be generated automatically

Update Device Token via WiFi Manager

After device registration, copy the Device Token from the dashboard
When the ESP32 has no token (or you need to change it), it creates a WiFi access point: "SmartOutlet-AP"
Connect your phone or computer to the "SmartOutlet-AP" WiFi network
Open a browser and go to: http://192.168.4.1
Enter your WiFi credentials (SSID and Password)
In the Device Token field, paste the token you copied from the dashboard
Click "Save" — the token is saved on the device (no code upload needed)

Note: The device token is saved permanently in the ESP32's memory via the WiFi Manager. No code rebuild needed!

Wait for Connection

After saving in the WiFi Manager, the device will connect to your WiFi
It will start sending telemetry data to the server
Check the OLED display for "WiFi connected" and telemetry sending messages

Verify Installation

Wait a few minutes for the device to send its first telemetry data
Go to "Outlets Management" page in your dashboard
The device Status should change from "OFFLINE" to "ONLINE"
Once ONLINE, the device is successfully connected and sending data
You can now assign the outlet to a tenant from the "Outlets" page

Pro Tips:

The MAC address is automatically detected by the ESP32 code
Device token must match exactly - any extra spaces will cause authentication failure
If device shows "Token Invalid!" on OLED, reconnect to "SmartOutlet-AP" and double-check the token in the WiFi Manager portal
Devices send telemetry data every 10 seconds when online
You can view real-time data and control outlets from the "Outlets" management page
To reset WiFi configuration, hold the BOOT button for 5 seconds
