# Quick Start: Wi-Fi Omnitrack Buoy

### Requirements:

{% hint style="info" %}
This guide is written assuming that the Omnitrack system is outfitted with the MKIII ROVL. If using a different ROVL, the term "Transponder" instead refers to the "Transmitter," and the term "Transceiver" instead refers to the "Receiver."
{% endhint %}

#### Hardware:

* Wi-Fi Omnitrack Buoy
* BaseStation Plus

#### Software:

* [Cerulean SonarView](broken://pages/DSXdqeSVCqvrt6FDOK7Y)
* Any Web Browser

### Setting up the Omnitrack Buoy

1. Do not forget the included accessory package and ROVL Transponder in the packaging.
2. Assemble the Omnitrack. See [here](/c/omnitrack/quick-start-guides/assembly.md).

### **BlueROV Transponder Installation and Setup**

Refer to installation instructions [here](https://docs.ceruleansonar.com/c/ethernet-rov-locator/bluerov-transmitter-transponder-installation-and-setup).

### Connecting the Omnitrack to a Network

1. Connect the BaseStation Plus to your PC and follow the PC setup directions [here](broken://pages/5X98DNSzuj7NCfVbIev0). Be sure you attach the antenna before powering on the BaseStation Plus.
2. Install the antenna on the Omnitrack Wi-Fi module. Insert a charged battery into the Wi-Fi module and power it on using the screw-in power switch next to the antenna jack on the Wi-Fi module.
3. If you are using a BaseStation Plus: Turn on the BaseStation Plus. Wait at least 60 seconds for the Wi-Fi to boot, and wait another 60 seconds for the Wi-Fi on the Omnitrack to boot and connect. Your PC should be able to talk to the Omnitrack at this point (try browsing to **<http://192.168.2.9>** from your PC, assuming you have not changed the default addresses).
4. Power the ROV and wait 3 minutes for it to boot. Verify you can browse to the ROV at **<http://192.168.2.2>** (assuming you have not changed the ROV from its default IP address, and that you have set a compatible IP address \[by default 192.168.2.1] for the PC's Ethernet interface you are using to test).&#x20;
5. Power up the Omnitrack and verify you can browse to it at **<http://192.168.2.9>**.
6. If not in the United States, [check your Wi-Fi country settings](/c/omnitrack/omnitrack-wi-fi-module-system/configuring-country-and-antenna-gain-settings.md).&#x20;
7. At this point, you should [check the configuration](/c/ethernet-rov-locator/configuring-the-rovle.md) of the ROVL topside transmitter or transceiver, and you should be ready to operate.
8. If you are testing indoors you may want to look [here](/c/omnitrack/bench-testing-and-simulation.md).

### Deploying the Omnitrack
