Open security does not utilize any encryption methodology, but requires an SSID (alpha-numeric) entry.
This entry must match the Network Name (SSID) entry of the target WAP so the panel knows what
device it is using to communicate with the network.
Refer to the
Configuring a Wireless Network Access
section on page 33 for further details on
these security options.
Refer to the
Using the Site Survey tool
section on page 34.

SSID (Service Set Identifier):
Opens an on-screen keyboard to enter the SSID name used on the target
WAP.
The SSID is a unique name used by the WAP, and is assigned to all panels
on that network. An SSID is required by the WAP before the panel is permit-
ted to join the network.
• The SSID is case sensitive and must not exceed 32 characters.
• Make sure this setting is the same for all points in your wireless network.
• NXA-WAP200Gs use
AMX
as their default SSID.
• If this field is left blank, the panel will attempt to connect to the first available
WAP.
