In this case you can regain access to the device by activating the network configuration mode. The device then behaves with regard to the network configuration as in the delivery state. It either receives an IP address from the DHCP server or assigns one to itself (Link Local).\n\n## 1. Activating network configuration mode\n\nTo start the network configuration mode, simply press the configuration button three times during operation. You will find it on the bottom left on the back of the electronics box, next to the status LED:\n\n![Configuration button](uploads/5167750e35c41fd9c544ee2af7ac2286/System_Netzwerk-Konfigurationsmodus_E_01.png)<br><img src=\"uploads/fc6b88550d454e2d939bba8d2c0e37db/System_Netzwerk-Konfigurationsmodus_E_Stern.png\">Konfigurationstaste\n\nYou will then hear a voice prompt. Then simply wait for the Behnke Station to announce the IP address. You can also output the IP address at any time during operation by pressing the configuration button twice.\n\n## 2. Configuration Wifi\n\nIn the network configuration mode, a configuration WLAN is provided in the immediate\nvicinity of the device (only for devices with WLAN antenna). If you are in the immediate vicinity of the device, you can then use a computer, tablet or mobile phone to connect to the configuration WLAN to configure the device.\n\nThe name and password of the WLAN are: `behnke-station`\n\nWhen you are connected to the WLAN, open your browser and enter `http://behnke-station` or, alternatively, the IP address `10.10.10.10` in the address line.\n\nThen the login to the web interface can take place.\n\n## 3.
