The network function of the AW-UE160 will not function without setting up the initial account.
Even when connecting to a remote controller (AW-RP150 or AW-RP60) or external control devices over the network, the initial account setup is necessary.
A computer is required to set up the initial account.
For the initial account setup method, please refer to the "Setting the Initial Account" section in the AW-UE160 Operating Instructions .
If the initial account is not set up, the AW-RP150 or AW-RP60 can recognize the AW-UE160 but cannot control it.
