Configuring Communications
25
MVP-8400i 8.4" Modero® ViewPoint® Touch Panel with Intercom
The card should be given the SSID used by the target WAP. If this field is left blank, the unit
will attempt to connect to the first available WAP. By default, all WAP200Gs use
AMX
as
their assigned SSID value.
One of the most common problems associated with connection to a WAP arise because the
SSID was not entered properly. You must maintain the same case when entering this
information.
ABC is not the same as Abc
.
The alpha-numeric string is by default
AMX
but can later be changed to any 32-character
entry.
This string must be duplicated within the Network Name (SSID) field on the WAP.
As an example, if you use
TECHPUBS
as your SSID, you must
match this word and the
case
within both the
Network Name (SSID)
field on the touch panel’s
Network Name SSID
field and on the WAP’s
Basic Wireless Configuration
page.
5.
Toggle the
Encryption
button (FIG. 22) until it reads either:
64
or
128
for Bit Key Size.
The 64/128 selection reflects the bit-level of encryption security. This WEP encryption level must
match the encryption level being used on the WAP.
6.
Toggle the
Default
Key
field until the you’ve chosen a WEP Key value (
from 1- 4
) that matches
what you’ll be using on your target WAP200G.
This value MUST MATCH on both devices
.
These WEP Key identifier values must match for both devices.
This series of hex digits (26 hex digits for a 128-bit encryption key) should be entered as
the
Current Key
into both the WAP and onto other communicating Modero panels by
using the WEP Key dialog (FIG. 23).
7.
Write down this Current Key string value for later entry into your WAP’s
WEP Key
field (
typically
entered without colons
) and into other communicating panel’s
Current Key
field (FIG. 23).
8.
If you are entering a Current Key generated either by your target WAP or another Modero
panel
, within the
WEP Keys
section, touch the
Key #
button to launch the
WEP Key #
keyboard
(FIG. 23), enter the characters and press
Don
e when finished.
This Key value corresponds to the Default WEP Key number used on the Wireless Access
Point and selected in the Default Key field described in the previous step.
WEP will not work unless the same Default Key is set on both the panel and the
Wireless Access Point.
For example: if you have your Wireless Access Point set to default key 4 (which
was 01:02:03:04:05), you must set the panel’s key 4 to 01:02:03:04:05.
