xPico™ Wi-Fi® Embedded Device Server Evaluation Kit Quick Start Guide 7
Wireless Connection Using Internal Soft AP
Select your antenna of choice. If ducktail, this can be screwed directly into the SMA
socket located on the Eval Board. If the PCB antenna is to be used, the wire between the
xPico Wi-Fi module u.FL connector and the on-board SMA connector has to be carefully
disconnected and the plug on the PCB strip antenna should be inserted.
1. Once power and antenna is connected, turn on the board by moving switch SW3 in to
the marked ON position.
By default the SoftAP mode is enabled with a default SSID of XpicoWiFi_xxxxxx.
Where xxxxxx are the last six characters of the unique xPico Wi-Fi serial number.
This number is available on the module label. For example if the serial number on
label were 0080A398010E then the SSID would be XpicoWiFi_98010E.
2. Using the Wi-Fi Connection Manager of your connecting device the above SSID
should be presented as an available connection choice. Select the SSID and follow
the device connection manager instructions to continue to connect.
The default security for xPico Wi-Fi SoftAP is WPA2 and the passphrase is
XPICOWIFI. These defaults can be changed through the configuration web manager
after the initial connection has been established.

authentication process.
With a Wi-Fi client set to the above parameters, your device can connect directly to
the xPico Wi-Fi Soft AP.
