devolo Magic 1 WiFi 2-1 15 Introduction Expanding an existing devolo Magic PLC network by adding another devolo Magic adapter In order to use a new devolo Magic 1 WiFi 2-1 in your devolo Magic- network, first you have to connect it to your existing devolo Magic adapters devices as a network. This is accomplished by using a shared PLC password, which can be assigned in various ways: b Using devolo Cockpit or the devolo Home Network App (see Chapter 3.4 Fig. 3 Network connectors Installation of devolo software) b Using the web interface (see Chapter 4.5 Powerline) 2.3 Pairing – Establishing a PLC b connection Using the PLC button as described below. 1 To do so, plug the new devolo Magic adapter devolo Magic adapters that are in the factory de- into an available power socket and, for appro- fault condition, i.e. have been recently purchased ximately 1 second, press the PLC button on a or successfully reset (see Chapter 3.5 Removing devolo Magic adapter in your existing the devolo Magic adapter from a PLC network), devolo Magic network.

After plugging the devolo Magic adapters into available power sockets, a new devolo Magic network is established automatically within 3 minutes. devolo Magic 1 WiFi 2-1 Introduction 16 After a short time, the flashing LED becomes a steady white light. The devolo Magic adapter has been successfully integrated into your existing devolo Magic network. For each pairing operation, only one additional devolo Magic adapter can be added at a time.

You can find detailed information about installing devolo Magic adapters in Chapter 3.3 Connecting the devolo Magic 1 WiFi 2-1.

In this mode, the devolo Magic adapter cannot be accessed over the electrical wiring. As soon as the network device (e.g. computer) connected to the network interface is switched on again, your devolo Magic adapter can also be accessed over the electrical wiring again. Check whether the adapter is connected to the mains supply correctly and whether the pairing operation has been carried out successfully.
