 ** Instructions for flashing the OS can be found [[en:hw:02-neuron:image|on this link]].**
-After startup, the controller processes the uploaded program and the Mervis HMI website and other Mervis services communicating with the controller are also available. The device will startup fully a few seconds after the power supply is plugged in, it may take even longer for the first startup. The mode is physically indicated by PWR LED continuous emitting and RUN LED emitting with short flashes ([[en:hw:02-neuron:led-indication#pwr_is_on_and_run_blink_slowly|ukázka zde]] / [[en:hw:02-neuron:led-indication#controller_startup_simulator|simulace spuštění zde]]).

-===== mDNS record =====
-For newer versions of the flashed OS, after connecting the controller in the network, an **mDNS** (multicast DNS) record is published, which is used to assign the device name to the IP address.
-We can simply say that you do not need to know its IP address to connect to the required device, but you only need to know its name. In the case of Unipi Neuron, it is a combination of model marking and serial number separated by a dash in the form: **model-serialNumber**. You can find both information on the product label of the device.

+===== First connection of the unit =====
+Unipi Neuron unit size **S** must be powered by [[https://www.unipi.technology/power-supply-for-din-rail-24v-dc-0-63a-p18| 24 V⎓ power supply; 0.63 A]], sizes **M** and **L** must be powered by [[https://www.unipi.technology/power-supply-for-din-rail-24v-dc-1-5a-p19|24 V⎓ power supply; 1,5 A]]. To access the introductory HMI web page, it is necessary to connect to the unit from a computer or tablet, with any modern web browser.
-In order to connect to the Mervis web interface (so-called Mervis HMI) through a web browser, you need to complement this mDNS format by adding the **http:⁄⁄** prefix, i.e.:
-<code>http://s103-sn1</code>
-Alternatively, in some browsers, add **.local** to the end of the string:
-<code>http://s103-sn1.local</code>

 ==== Connection via local network with DHCP server ====
-Despite its somewhat complex name, this approach is a simple and most commonly used variant. All you have to do is connect the controller to a computer network using an Ethernet cable and connect a computer or tablet (either via an Ethernet cable or Wi-Fi) to the same network. Your DHCP server (router or Wi-Fi router) on this network will automatically assign an IP address to both of them from the available range.

 ==== Direct connection ====
-A direct connection requires the physical connection of the computer and controller with an Ethernet cable. Because this solution does not include a DHCP server, both the computer and the controller automatically assign itself a random IP address from the range 169.254.XXX.XXX.
