Note: The signal strength bargraph should show a connection to a Wireless Access Point. If there is no signal or IP Address displayed; configuration of your network could be required.

Configuring the MVP-7500 Panel for Unsecured Access

The MVP panel contains an internal 802.11b (Type I) wireless compact flash card that is used for communication with 802.11b Wireless Access Points.

1.Select Protected Setup > Wireless Connection.

2.Locate the Wireless Settings section of the Wireless Connection page. Note: The MVP-7500 wireless communication settings are defaulted to an Open Authentication system. An OPEN system allows the MVP to communicate with the first available Wireless Access Point.

3.Touch the Network Name (SSID) field (FIG. 3).

4.From the Service Set Identifier keyboard, either:

Enter the SSID name assigned to the specific Wireless Access Point (case sensitive) or

Leave this field blank to communicate with the first available Wireless Access Point.

5.Verify the Authentication field reads Open (default).

6.Press the Encryption field until it reads Clear Text (default). The remaining Wireless Settings fields are then greyed-out and read-only.

7.Toggle the DHCP/Static field (within the left IP Settings section) until it reads DHCP.

8.Touch the Protected Setup button to navigate to the Protected Setup page.

9.Press the on-screen Reboot button to both restart the panel and save your changes.

10.Return to the Secondary Connection page to verify that the signal strength quality bargraph is On (indicating a signal).

4.From the Service Set Identifier keyboard, enter the SSID name used on your Wireless Access Point.

5.Press the Encryption field until it reads WEP64 or WEP128. The 64/128 selection reflects the bit-level of encryption security previously configured on your target Access Point.

6.Press the Default Key field until the value matches the identifier value of the key entered into the Wireless Access Point.

The panel’s Default Key value must match the Key value being used on the WAP. For example: Default Key 1 on the panel must match the Key value selected on the Wireless Access Point. You can select from up to four keys.

WEP will not work unless the same default key is set on both the panel and the Wireless Access Point.

7.Under the title WEP Keys section, touch the Key button that corresponds to the Default WEP Key number being used on the Wireless Access Point to launch the WEP Key # keyboard.

8.Using this keyboard, enter the same Current Key value being used on the Wireless Access Point.

9.Click Done when you are finished entering the Current Key for the

selected WEP Key.

Note: If your target Wireless Access Point does not support passphrase key generation, and has previously been setup with a manually entered WEP KEY, you will have to manually enter that same WEP key on your panel.

10.Toggle the DHCP/Static field (within the IP Settings section) until it reads DHCP.

11.Touch the Protected Setup button to navigate to the Protected Setup page.

12.Press the on-screen Reboot button to both restart the panel and save your changes.
