# Setup Wizard

The Setup Wizard runs on first boot. It guides you through network setup, Aranet Cloud linking, and sensor pairing.

### Step 1: Name the Gateway Pro

Set a unique device name. This name appears in Aranet Cloud and on the Gateway Pro screen. You can keep the factory name.

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Step 2: Connect to the network

Choose **Wireless** (Wi‑Fi) or **Wired** (Ethernet).

<figure><img src="/files/UD41jqP9y4r5TzfPnwai" alt="" width="375"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

#### Wireless (Wi‑Fi)

Select your Wi‑Fi network. Enter the password. Press **Next**.

If the connection succeeds, the Gateway Pro shows a confirmation screen.

#### Wired (Ethernet)

Connect an Ethernet cable. With **IP Configuration = Auto**, the Gateway Pro uses DHCP. It shows the assigned IP settings on screen.

If you need a static IP, set **IP Configuration** to **Manual**. Enter the required values. Press **Connect**.

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Step 3: Update firmware (optional)

The Gateway Pro checks for a newer firmware version. If one is available, press **Update now** to start the update.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Keep the Gateway Pro powered during the update. Do not disconnect the power.
{% endhint %}

<figure><img src="/files/jE1VDWT7FwN7o3kcRaiO" alt="" width="375"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

During the update, progress details are shown on screen.

<figure><img src="/files/vhWZOkMr0T8YvR1NuiYL" alt="" width="375"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

When the update finishes, the Gateway Pro restarts. Wait for the success message.

If the firmware is already up to date, the Gateway Pro shows a confirmation screen. Press **Continue**.

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Step 4: Set regional settings

Verify the time zone, time format, date format, and measurement units. Adjust values manually if needed.

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Step 5: Link to Aranet Cloud

Scan the QR code with your phone or tablet. Then complete onboarding in Aranet Cloud.

* Existing account: sign in and choose the Workspace.
* New account: create one and the Gateway Pro is added automatically.

If you can’t scan the QR code, open the URL shown below it. Sign in and enter the 6‑digit code displayed on the Gateway Pro.

<figure><img src="/files/WY8A19kmObdsEEhuTTn8" alt="" width="375"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

You can also link the Gateway Pro from Aranet Cloud directly. See [Connecting to Aranet Cloud](/gateway/gateway-pro/gateway-pro-configuration/connecting-to-aranet-cloud.md) or the external guide: [Connect Gateway Pro to Aranet Cloud](https://help.aranet.com/aranet-cloud-page/aranet-cloud-landing-page/gateway-pro-management/connect-gateway-pro).

After linking, the Gateway Pro shows a confirmation screen. Press **Continue** to move on.

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Step 6: Add sensors

Press **Add sensors** to start pairing. You can pair sensors even if they were used with another base station.

<figure><img src="/files/GpjO1ORD7P5AhkgHZpip" alt="" width="375"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Select the sensor measurement interval. This sets how often sensors send data.

<figure><img src="/files/FNT0hPKhB5f5LbgVvBbs" alt="" width="375"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

To pair a sensor:

* Remove and reinsert the batteries, or press **Pair** (if available).
* Wait for the sensor to appear on the Gateway Pro screen.

Paired sensors show a green indicator.

<figure><img src="/files/oBRXULRAIGAARkRJxWT3" alt="" width="375"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

When you’re done, press **Stop pairing** to exit the wizard. You’ll land on the **Home Dashboard**.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.aranet.com/gateway/gateway-pro/gateway-pro-configuration/start-up/setup-wizard.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
