The OneVue Wired Device Configurator (OWDC) Android™ app provides the experience of adding a new Primex network device to OneVue on a mobile platform. The OWDC app is an alternative to Device Preconfiguration. Compatible devices include OneVue Sense Sensors, OneVue Sync Bridge, PoE Clocks and Timers, and the OneVue Notify Bell Controller.
Once you download the app from the Google Play™ store (it’s free!), you connect the Primex device to your Android device and the app guides you through the entire process.
OWDC app installed on your Android mobile device: download the OWDC app from the Google Play Store. Search for the OneVue Wired Device Configurator.
Android mobile device requirements: Android OS version 4.4 or later. Minimum 25% battery life remaining. Device must support USB Host or USB OTG mode. To verify USB support, check with the Android device manufacturer.

OneVue Network Profile: during configuration, the Primex device is assigned to an existing Network Profile.
From the OWDC app, you cannot create a new Network Profile. Before you begin, from OneVue verify a Network Profile exists or create a new Network Profile. From OneVue, go to Devices > Networks. To create a new network, from the bottom section select +New.
For a Non-DHCP network, during configuration you are required to provide the device's static IP address.
Note
OWDC cannot be used with devices that require EAP-TLS certificates for network authentication or any type of network certificate. Devices requiring this type of authentication must be configured through Device Preconfiguration, and when the devices arrive onsite the certificates are required to be uploaded to the devices using the Primex Device Configuration software. The devices will then be able to successfully authenticate to the facility's network and check-in to OneVue.
Primary device settings: each Primex device has unique primary settings. Refer to OWDC procedure for the device type you are adding to OneVue.
-
Connection cable (not supplied): the type of cable is dependent on the Primex device and your Android device.
The cable connects the Primex device to your Android device and provides power to the Primex device during configuration.
Note
Cables can be purchased from Primex. Contact Primex Technical Support to verify the cable required for your application use. Part No. NTUSBADAPTER Mini-Din, USB-C, USB T-adapter. Part No. Q13797 USB to Mini cable.
