Link Password
This field is used to specify the WiFi link password, which is stored on the
CODEGRIP device. CODEGRIP Suite will have to provide this password in
order to access the WiFi link to this specific CODEGRIP device. Next to this
field, there is a checkbox used to enable or disable this option.
Filter MAC Address
The CODEGRIP device allows the connection to be established only with
the host PC whose MAC address corresponds to the MAC address entered
in this field.
The MAC filtering option can be completely disabled by unchecking the
checkbox next to the Filter MAC Address field.
Signal Level (dBm)
This field displays the strength of the WiFi network signal in dBm. Values
around -60dBm are considered as good and reliable signal reception, while
values less than -80dBm will probably result in lost packets.
WiFi and SSL licenses are bought separately, from the Mikroe online
store.
Once entered, the password for the specific CODEGRIP device is
stored by the CODEGRIP Suite, so that the user does not have to
enter the password each time the CODEGRIP device is used.
