Using the
Configuration
Utility (cont.)
NOTE: If the security option is enabled in the WindConnect II, you may be required to provide a PIN (Personal
Identification Number) before a connection is established. If a passkey is required, a passkey screen will appear,
prompting you to enter the appropriate passkey. After the correct passkey is entered, a connection is established,
and Windows will remember the successful authentication, making it unnecessary to re-enter the passkey for
subsequent connections. If an incorrect passkey is entered, the connection attempt will fail, and the utility will
return to its initial state. If the utility is unable to establish a connection with the print adapter, an error message
will be displayed, and the main window will default to its initial state. If you forgot your passkey, perform a cold
reset to restore the device to factory default conditions (no passkey) by removing power from the device, pressing
and holding the test button while reapplying power to the device.

Unable to connect to the
