Step 1 – Logging In to the Network

Select a language

The initial setup screen is used to select the device's interface language. The user must tap the tile with the flag corresponding to the language in which they want to operate the device (e.g., the Polish flag for the Polish language). The selected language is highlighted in green.

Step 2 – Configuration

After startup, the control panel enters network login mode. Depending on network availability, this process may take up to 20 minutes. Once successfully logged into the network, the control panel will provide instructions on the next steps. To continue, tap anywhere on the screen.

If you are unable to connect to the Internet, check your cellular network coverage; if you are using an ETH control panel, make sure you have a proper Internet connection.

The diagnostic screen of the physical device labeled "Register FarmWatch Pro on farm." This is a loading screen that displays the progress of connecting to the cellular network and the cloud. The user does not need to enter anything or click anything here; simply wait until all items on the list (such as modem, SIM card, and signal strength) are marked as successfully completed.

Step 3 – Assigning a Device to a Farm

For each device to function properly, it must be assigned to a farm. To do this, scan the QR code displayed on the screen. You will be redirected to the FeturaCloud system, where you can register the device. You can also manually enter the activation address in your browser and register the control panel at fetura.com.pl/activate.

The screen displayed on the physical device labeled "Assign device to farm." It displays a QR code and an alphanumeric string labeled "Device code." The user must read this text-based device code from the screen and enter it exactly as shown in the corresponding field on the online activation form.

After scanning the QR code, you will be redirected to a page where you need to assign the control unit to the farm. To do this, click the “Activate” button . You can also enter the device’s serial number manually.
