If the network name or password changes, the module may no longer be able to connect.

In brief: Check the LED; if the module cannot be reconfigured from the previous network, reset it and add it as a new device.

Before resetting

  • Make sure the new 2.4 GHz network is active.
  • Check that it is not an isolated guest network.
  • Restart the router and the module.
  • If you can still access the module, note the name, room and settings.
  • Remove outdated associations where possible.

Reconfiguration procedure

  1. Physically access the Setup button.
  2. Reset the module to factory settings.
  3. Wait for the flashing blue LED.
  4. Open Freedompro Home.
  5. Choose Add module > Smart Modules > No, it's new.
  6. Scan the QR code and complete the setup again.

The documented reset procedure requires physical access to the Setup button. Consider module accessibility already during installation.
