This article walks you through connecting your Roca Sifter to the internet and registering it to your account.

You can connect your Roca Sifter using either Wi-Fi or a wired Ethernet connection. Ethernet is recommended when available for the most reliable connection.

Before You Begin

Make sure you have:

• Power brick and power cord
• Access to a power outlet
• Ethernet cable, if connecting by Ethernet
• Wi-Fi network name and password, if connecting by Wi-Fi

Place the Roca Sifter near an Ethernet jack or in an area with a strong Wi-Fi signal before starting setup.

Step 1: Unbox the Roca Sifter

Remove the Roca Sifter from the box by gripping the protective bag and lifting the device out.

Place the Sifter on a stable, flat surface with enough room to open the lid and access the back of the device.

Step 2: Remove the Included Components

Open the lid by pressing the button on the right side of the Roca Sifter.

Remove the following items from inside the device:

Set these aside while you complete setup.

Step 3: Connect Power

1. Connect the power cord to the power brick.
2. Plug the barrel jack into the back of the Roca Sifter.

The light on the front of the Roca Sifter should begin flashing blue and then turn solid blue.

If the light does not turn on automatically, press the power button on the top of the Roca Sifter.

1. Plug an Ethernet cable into the Ethernet port on the back of the Roca Sifter.
2. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to your router, switch, or wall Ethernet jack.

When the device is successfully connected, the front light will turn green and the Sifter will play a chime.
