Step 2B: Enter network settings.

After the camera has connected to the appropriate wireless network, the next step is to specify the TCP/IP properties. If the fields aren’t already set, use the values specified in the green section of the Control Centre.

Press the Enter button on the camera to commit the settings. If you receive a TCP/IP Error message from the camera, go back and verify that the values have been entered correctly.

Step 2C: Specify the server address (your computer).

The next step in the wizard prompts you to specify the server that you would like the images transmitted to. The IP Address value in the red section of the Control Centre should be entered at this stage. Press the enter button to

commit the selection and move on.

If the camera generates an Unable to Locate Server error, then verify that you have entered the value correctly. If that fails, go to the end of the address and press the trashcan button several times to clear out any extra whitespace characters (as the WT-2 is sensitive to this).

If the problem persists, verify that the correct adapter is selected in the red section and try the other values available in the IP Address dropdown.

Step 2D: Provide login credentials.

Once the camera has successfully connected to ITP, it needs a username and password for authentication purposes. If you have created a user account, enter the username and password here. If you have enabled

anonymous logins, simply check the appropriate box. Press enter to test your settings and move on.
