Making AP Mode Settings
This method allows you to connect the scanner directly to devices without an access point. The scanner acts as an
access point.
c
Important:
When you connect from a smart device to the scanner using the AP mode connection, the scanner is connected to
the same Wi-Fi network (SSID) as the smart device and communication is established between them. Since the
smart device is automatically connected to other connectable Wi-Fi networks if the scanner is turned off, it is not
connected to the previous Wi-Fi network again if the scanner is turned on. Connect to the scanner’s SSID in AP
mode from the smart device again. If you do not want to connect every time you turn the scanner on or off, we
recommend using a Wi-Fi network by connecting the scanner to an access point.
