2. After a few seconds, your device will disconnect from the Heartland RetailTRAC counter, and the unit will now be online on your network.

3. Verify your counter was successfully connected to your network by going to Settings - Network & Internet Settings – Select to view your Available Wi-Fi networks list. – If TrafficCounter is listed as an available network, then the connection was not successful, and the setup process should be repeated

• *NOTE: If TrafficCounter is still listed as an available network after setup, try to rescan the network list before going through setup again – the list often needs to refresh before dropping TrafficCounter from the list
• *NOTE: Ensure password for store Wi-Fi network was entered correctly – most common reason counter does not connect to network is due to incorrect password
