7" Modero Widescreen Touch Panels
This series of hex digits (26 hex digits for a 128-bit encryption key) should be
entered as the Current Key into both the WAP and onto other communicating
Modero panels by using the WEP Key dialog (FIG. 60).
13. Write down this Current Key string value for later entry into your WAP’s WEP Key field
(typically entered without colons) and into the communicating panel’s Current Key field
(FIG. 58).
14. If you are entering a Current Key generated either by your target WAP or another
Modero panel, within the WEP Keys section, touch the Key # button to launch the WEP Key #
keyboard (FIG. 60), enter the characters and press Done when finished.
This Key value corresponds to the Default WEP Key number used on the Wireless Access
Point and selected in the Default Key field described in the previous step.
15. Verify the fields within the IP Settings section have been properly configured. Refer to Step 1:
Configure the Panel’s Wireless IP Settings section on page 57 for detailed information.
16. Press the Back button to navigate to the Protected Setup page and press the on-screen Reboot
button to both save any changes and restart the panel. Remember that you will need to
navigate to the System Connection page and configure the connection to a target Master.
17. After the panel restarts, return to the Secondary Connection page to verify the Link Quality
and Signal Strength:
The bargraphs have been replaced with descriptions: None, Poor, Fair, Good, Very
Good, and Excellent.
Refer to the NXA-WAP200G Instruction Manual for more detailed setup and configuration
procedures.

If your target Wireless Access Point does not support passphrase key
generation and has previously been setup with a manually entered WEP KEY,
you must manually enter that same WEP key on your panel.
The signal strength field provides 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.
