Connect to a Wi-Fi Client (DHCP)

Figure 59 

shows the configuration window on a Scanner 3100 which has been configured as a Wi-Fi Client 

(DHCP).

1. 

Configure your personal Wi-Fi enabled device as a Wi-Fi DHCP 

client for a dynamic IP address assignment.

2. 

Connect your personal Wi-Fi enabled device to the same 

network the Scanner 3100 is connected to.  The SSID and 
password of that network will have to be provided to you by the 
network administrator.

3. 

Allow time for your personal Wi-Fi enabled device to connect.  

The network DHCP server will  grant your personal Wi-Fi en

-

abled device an IP address.

4.  Enter the Scanner 3100 IP address found on the window into the address line of a web browser.  The 

Scanner 3100 IP address will be listed on the window after the 

Wifi Client (DHCP)

 label.  As shown in 

the example on 

Figure 59

, the Scanner 3100 Wi-Fi Client (DHCP) IP address is 

192.008.100.004

.  

Connect to a Wi-Fi Client (Stat)

Figure 60 

shows the configuration window on a Scanner 3100 which has been configured as a Wi-Fi Client 

(Stat).

1. 

Configure your personal Wi-Fi enabled device with a static IP 

address, which you know to not be used on the network but is 
on the same subnet as the Scanner 3100

.  A subnet is defined 

by the first three numbers of an IP address delimited by periods.

2. 

Connect your personal Wi-Fi enabled device to the same net

-

work the Scanner 3100 is connected to.

3. 

Confirm that the address is on the same subnet of the Scanner 

3100 but is not the same IP address.

4.  Enter the Scanner 3100 address found on the window into the 

address line of a web browser.  The Scanner 3100 IP address 
will be listed on the window after the 

Wifi Client (STAT)

 label.  As shown in the example on 

Figure 

60

, the Scanner 3100 Wi-Fi Client (Stat) IP address is 

192.008.100.004
