7" Modero Widescreen Touch Panels
Static WEP security requires that both a target WAP be identified and an encryption method be
implemented prior to establishing communication. In addition to providing both Open and Shared
Authentication capabilities, this page also supports Hexadecimal and ASCII keys.
Static WEP Settings
SSID (Service Set Identifier): Opens an on-screen keyboard to enter the SSID name used on the target
WAP.
The SSID is a unique name used by the WAP, and is assigned to all panels
on that network. An SSID is required by the WAP before the panel is permit-
ted to join the network.
• The SSID is case sensitive and must not exceed 32 characters.
• Make sure this setting is the same for all points in your wireless network.
• NXA-WAP200Gs use AMX as their default SSID.
• If this field is left blank, the panel will attempt to connect to the first available
WAP.
WEP 64 / WEP 128: Cycles through the available encryption options: 64 or 128 Bit Key Size.
“WEP” (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is an 802.11 security protocol designed to
provide wireless security equivalent to wired networks.
• WEP64 enables WEP encryption using a 64 Bit Key Size. All packets are
transmitted with their contents encrypted using the Default WEP Key.
• WEP128 enables WEP encryption using a 128 Bit Key Size. All packets are
transmitted with their contents encrypted using the Default WEP Key.
• If the key is not the correct size, the system will resize it to match the
number of bits required for the WEP encryption mode selected.
Generate (Passphrase): This button displays an on-screen keyboard which allows you to enter a pass-
phrase. The panel then automatically generates four WEP keys (compatible
only with Modero panels). Enter these WEP keys into the target WAP.
When working with multiple panels, WEP Keys must be entered into the WAP
for each panel.
• All Modero panels use the same code key generator. Therefore, this
Passphrase generates identical keys on any Modero panel.
• The Passphrase generator is case sensitive.
Note: This Key generator is unique to Modero panels and does not generate
the same keys as non-AMX wireless devices. For example, a Current Key
string generated anywhere else will not match those created on Modero pan-
els.
Default Key: Cycles through the four available WEP key identifiers to select a WEP key to
use. As the Default Key value is altered (through selection) the corresponding
“Current Key” is displayed. Each Current Key corresponds to a WEP key.
This feature is useful for accessing different networks without having to re-
enter that networks’ WEP key. It is also sometimes used to set up a rotating
key schedule to provide an extra layer of security.
WEP Keys: This feature provides another level of security by selecting up to four WEP
Keys.
Push any of the four buttons to open an on-screen keyboard. Both ASCII and
HEX keys are supported. Up to four keys can be configured for both.
• An ASCII key utilizes either 5 or 13 ASCII characters
• A HEX key utilizes either 10 or 26 Hexidecimal characters
Press Done to accept any changes and save the new value.
Note: A 64-bit key will be 10 characters in length while a 128-bit key will be
26 characters in length. The length of the key entered determines the level of
WEP encryption employed (64 or 128-bit). 128-bit keys may be used if sup-
ported by the internal wireless card.
