WAP200G Instruction Manual for more information.
Wireless Security: Sets the wireless security method to be used by the panel to connect to the net-
work. Selecting any of the connection method buttons invokes the relevant con-
figuration page, with options that allow you to define parameters specific to the
selected method of connection.
Refer to the following Wireless Security Page section on page 91 for further
details on these security options.
Open (Clear Text) This button opens the Open (Clear Text) Settings page (FIG. 69 on page 92).
“Open” security does not utilize any encryption methodology, but requires an
SSID (alpha-numeric) entry. This entry must match the Network Name (SSID)
entry of the target WAP so the panel knows what device it is using to communi-
cate with the network.
Refer to the following Wireless Security Page section on page 91 for further
details on these security options.
Static WEP This button opens the Static WEP Settings page (FIG. 70 on page 93).
“Static WEP” security requires that both a target WAP be identified and an
encryption method be implemented prior to establishing communication.
Refer to the Wireless Security Page section on page 91 for further details on
these security options.
