You can set up your Z-Box Hub using an Internet browser or the mobile app on your smart phone or tablet. In all cases, the device will need to be connected to your local Wi-Fi network.
We recommend performing the first the first configuration of your hub on your computer since the WEB UI (computer browser view) serves as the primary programming interface of your system. It's where you can add, remove, organize, and edit devices, as well as where you create all of your automations. Learn more about the Z-Box Hub ecosystem here.
Here's what you'll need to set up your hub:
- Physical access to your Z-Box hub to access the serial number and other important information on the back label
- Working Internet router with a local Wi-Fi network set-up
- Computer or a smartphone connected to your local W-Fi network
- Password to your Wi-Fi network
- Optional: Z-Box Ethernet Adapter (not included) to set up a LAN connection in place of Wi-Fi
