Van Level 6

The Wi-Fi version of the Van Level Pro 6. It needs power only, so it can go wherever it is easiest to mount, and everything you see is the same as the Pro 6.

Sensa Van Level 6

Sensa Connection Method​

Network: Wi-Fi.

Installation​

Mount it wherever it is easiest, within reach of your van's Wi-Fi, and give it power. It needs nothing else.

Configuration​

The Van Level 6 joins your van's network over Wi-Fi. You put it on your Wi-Fi the first time you power it up.

Steps:

  1. On your phone or another wireless device, join the wireless network named ss-setup-vl6. The password is sensasetup.
  2. Choose your van's network from the list and enter its password.
  3. The unit restarts and joins your network.

On your router it shows as ss-vl6-c008-xxxxxx or ss-vl6-c124-xxxxxx, where xxxxxx is the last 6 characters of the unit's MAC address. Open that address in your browser to reach its web interface, which is useful to check it is running. The user is admin and the password is sensaweb.

Adding to Sensa Nomad​

Your Van Level arrives with its firmware installed. Once it is on your van's network, Sensa finds it on its own. Open Settings, choose the Devices tab, tick it under Discovered and press Add Selected Devices. If it is not there yet, press Scan.

The Devices tab, with devices ticked and ready to add

See Adding devices for more.

What you see​

  • The levelling tabs on the Cab dashboard show how much lift each wheel needs to get the van level.
  • A roll tile on Cab Home and a Roll tab show how far the van is leaning to one side while you drive. See Dashboards.

Good to know​

  • One per system. Sensa takes one Van Level, whichever model.
  • Tell Sensa which way it is mounted. Open the cog on its row in Settings, Devices. Front, Left and Up say which of the unit's axes points to the front of the van, to the left and upwards. The bubble level beside them moves as the van does: lift the front and the bubble should move to Front. If it reads Reads upside down: check Up., change Up.
  • Choose the Pro 6 instead if you can run a network cable to it. A wired link is steadier, and it takes its power from the same cable.
