Setup the security and communication parameters between the wireless card and the target WAP by
configuring the Wireless Settings section on this page. Refer to the following section for detailed
procedures to setup either a secure or insecure connection.

Step 2: Configuring the Card’s Wireless Security Settings

The second step to successfully setting up your wireless card is to configure the Wireless Settings section of
the Wireless Settings page. The section configures both the communication and security parameters from the
internal wireless card to the WAP. The procedures outlined within the following sections use an NXA-
WAP200G and the target WAP.

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

1.

Power-down the Modero unit and follow the wireless card installation procedures outlined in Step 2:
Install the 802.11g mini-PCI Wireless Card
section on page 16.

2.

Power-up the panel (this allows it to detect the card).

3.

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.

4.

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

5.

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

6.

From within the Wireless Settings section of the Wireless Settings page, touch the Network Name (SSID)
field (FIG. 60).

7.

From the Service Set Identifier keyboard, enter the SSID name used by your target Wireless Access Point
(case sensitive).



The card should be given the SSID used by the target WAP. If this field is left blank, the unit will
attempt to connect to the first available WAP. By default, all WAP200Gs use AMX as their assigned
SSID value.



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.

8.

Toggle the Authentication field to an Open System (default).



Open System Authentication allows any device to join the network if the panel’s SSID matches
the WAP’s SSID.

9.

Toggle the Encryption field until it reads Clear Text (default).

Once you have completed setting up the wireless card parameters, you must then
navigate to the System Settings page and configure the communication parameters
for the target Master. Until those parameters are configured, your Connection Status
icon will remain red (indicating that there is no current connection to a Master).
