Installation and Setup
2. WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup)
The WPS method, provides a simple method for attaching the XW-111 to a wireless network without
needing to use any setup pages. Although using this method to connect the XW-111 to the network is
simple, you will not be able to access the XW-111 web server unless you know the IP address that was
assigned by the DHCP sever (router) or unless mDNS services are available on your device. For this
reason, it is recommended that you use this method of configuration only when the XW-111 units have
been pre-configured to operate in a non-web-server mode or when you have full access to the DHCP
server so you can obtain the IP address that was assigned.
To begin, press the WPS button on your wireless router or access-point. You will generally have about
two minutes to connect wireless devices to the network with WPS. Now remove the cover of the XW-111
and press the “WPS” push button. After a few seconds, the XW-111 should register itself with the router
or access-point. If WPS fails, the XW-111 will automatically enter the access point mode.
The XW-111 will use DHCP to obtain an IP address after a successful WPS association. Additionally, the
connection information is also broadcast using mDNS. If you need to access the XW-111 using its
internal web server you will need to obtain the IP address that was assigned to the XW-111 through your
DHCP server or router. Alternatively, if using an mDNS capable device, it may be accessed by entering
the appropriate URL into the address bar of your web browser:
