Scan
- Tap on the Scan tab once the test set has detected the wireless USB adapter. Press Scan on the bottom to start scanning
the site. When scan is completed, the test set will show the number of SSIDs, Channels, and the number of SSiDs in
Infrastructures mode and Ad-Hoc mode.
SSiD
- Tap on the SSiD tab after the scan is completed. Select one of the SSiDs to start a connection. If the SSiD is locked, a
network key is required to complete the connection. The WiFi function supports WEP encryption. The key can either be 10
characters or 26 characters. Note: If the user entered the wrong network key the test set will still connect to the Access Point,
however, it will not be able to connect to the web or to perform the Ping test.
Note:
Select the manual selection to enter the parameters manually if the SSiD did not detect the AP that the user is searching
for.
