WEP keys are 10 or 26 characters long (using 0 - 9, and A - F). Some wireless

routers can also use pass-phrases for WEP but these are not supported. WPA

keys are usually set up using a pass-phrase of between 8 and 63 characters.

Your radio accepts pass-phrases for WPA keys.

16. To enter the WEP or WPA key, characters are selected and entered using the

Tuning/Select control. As you rotate the control, the highlight scrolls through

the available characters as well as the three controls on the right. The character

currently highlighted will be entered when you press the Tuning/Select control.

Do this as needed until the complete key has been entered. Remember, WEP

keys only use the numbers 0-9 and letters A-F. WPA keys are sensitive to upper

and lower case characters. You must enter the key

exactly or the radio will not

connect to the network.

The three controls on the right-hand side of the screen have special functions. You

can quickly access these by pressing the Info button and then use the Tuning/

Select control as needed. See also 'Text Entry' on page 9.

If a WEP or WPA key has previously been entered for the selected SSID then the

display will show 'Key: [Set]'. If you have previously entered a different key, you must

clear this by selecting the '

' symbol. This will remove the '[Set]' indication.

After the final character of the WEP or WPA key has been entered, highlight the '

symbol and press the Tuning/Select control. The screen will show 'Connecting...'

and then 'Setup wizard completed'. Press the Tuning/Select control to the exit

setup wizard. The radio should now be able to connect to the network.

17. Once connected to the network your radio will display the main menu. Press

and hold the On/Off button to put the radio into Stand-by mode. It should then

display the time as obtained from the Internet. If the time displayed is not correct

for any reason, it can easily be adjusted later, see page 74, 'Manually setting the

clock'. The clock display will switch off after 30 seconds if the radio is running on

batteries.
