Notes About Security Settings

If the camera is installed with the Wi-Fi feature without proper security settings (encryption and
password), unauthorized third parties may access the network and cause harm. We strongly
recommend performing the required security settings before using the Wi-Fi feature.

Use Wi-Fi options of the setup menu (

A105) to perform the security settings.
