One of the most common problems associated with connection to a WAP arise because the
SSID was not entered properly. You must maintain the same case when entering the SSID
information. ABC is not the same as Abc.

From the Open (Clear Text) Settings page (FIG. 62), press the Save button to incorporate your new
information into the panel and begin the communication process.

Configuring the Modero’s wireless card for secured access to a WAP200G

After logging into the WAP200G, the default Status page appears within the web browser. These
read-only values are "pulled" from some of the other user-configurable Configuration Utility pages. By
default, wireless Modero panels are configured for unsecured communication to a Wireless Access
Point. To properly setup both the WAP200G and panel for secure communication, you must first prepare
the Modero panel and then use the information provided to fill out the fields within the WAP’s
browser-based Basic Wireless Configuration page.

Since the code key generator on Modero panels use the same key generation formula, all panels will
generate identical keys for the same Passphrase. The generators used on WAPs will not produce the same
key as the Modero generator even if you use the same Passphrase. For this reason, we recommend
FIRST creating the Current Key on the Modero and then entering that information into the
appropriate NXA-WAP200G fields
.

1.

Provide power to the panel (this allows it to detect the internal wireless card).

2.

Press the Protected Setup button (located on the lower-left of the panel page) to open the Protected
Setup page and display an on-screen keypad.

3.

Enter 1988 into the Keypad’s password field and press Done when finished.

4.

Press the Wireless Settings button (located on the lower-left) to open the Wireless Settings page.

5.

Locate the Wireless Security section (FIG. 63).

The signal strength field should provide some descriptive text regarding the strength
of the connection to a Wireless Access Point. If there is no signal or no IP Address
displayed; configuration of your network could be required.
