Connect a MicroUSB cable to the NUT board and turn on the power. At beginning,the RGB status LED shows light blue,then the LED turns flashing red, this means your NUT enters into Configuration Mode and you can use your iOS or Android APP to add the NUT into your IntoRobot cloud. see following picture:
If the RGB LED does not show flashing red, you need reset NUT and force it enter configuration mode. Please push the Mode button on the side for about 3 seconds until the RGB LED becomes flashing red, then release the button. Your NUT is in Configuration Mode now. See following video:

4) Click “配置”(Config) button and wait the system to config your device. It will take a while ( the screen will show some waiting icon during the time).
Once the configuration is done successfully, NUT RGB LED will show flashing white, your NUT has been bound to your IntoRobot Account. See following video:
If configuration failed, RGB LED will keep flashing red, APP will show 配置失败( configuration failure), in this case, please back to Step 1) and try again.
Step 4) Test NUT
If your NUT is configured successfully, your IntoRobot APP (or web control panel) will show a new device. Click that device , you will see a light bulb with a switch button on the right. Click that switch button, you can turn on/off the User LED in your NUT
