# Wireless LAN settings

This is the setting to connect with the iPhone/iPad or the Android terminal directly or to connect to the wireless access point via wireless LAN.

## Direct connection ([DIRECT])

This is the setting to connect the camera to the iPhone/iPad or Android terminal directly.

The camera may restart if necessary when the setting is changed.

Select the [NETWORK] menu → [DEVICE SEL] → [WLAN].

Select the [NETWORK] menu → [WLAN PROPERTY] → [TYPE] → [DIRECT].

In the [NETWORK] menu → [WLAN PROPERTY], set each item as necessary.

- For details about the settings, refer to “Setting items in [WLAN PROPERTY] when set to [DIRECT]”.

Select the SSID of the camera from the SSID list in the iPhone/iPad or Android terminal, and enter the password (encryption key).

Display the wireless access point list screen in wireless LAN setting, and select SSID of the camera.

(Factory setting: [AJ-CX4000])

When the password confirmation screen appears, enter the password (encryption key).

For details, refer to the operating instruction of the iPhone/iPad or Android terminal.

(Factory setting: [01234567890123456789abcdef])

Close the menu or return to the level of the [NETWORK] menu.

Check the network connection.

Once connected, is displayed on the screen of the camera.

#### Setting items in [WLAN PROPERTY] when set to [DIRECT]

[SSID] | Network name of the camera (SSID) (Factory setting: [AJ-CX4000])
[BAND] | Setting to switch between two communication method ([2.4GHz] or [5GHz]) (Factory setting: [2.4GHz])
[CHANNEL(2.4GHz)] | Channel to be used when [BAND] is set to [2.4GHz] (Factory setting: [AUTO])
[CHANNEL(5GHz)] | Channel to be used when [BAND] is set to [5GHz] (Factory setting: [AUTO])
[ENCRYPTION] | Setting the encryption method (Factory setting: [WPA2-AES])
[ENCRYPT KEY] | WPA2 encryption key (Factory setting: [01234567890123456789abcdef])
[IPv4 SETTING] | [DHCP] | Setting the DHCP function [OFF]: Does not use DHCP. [CLIENT]: Automatically acquired with the DHCP when connected by setting [TYPE] to [INFRA(SELECT)] or [INFRA(MANUAL)]. (Cannot be selected.) [SERVER]: Enables the DHCP server function of the camera when connecting with [TYPE] set to [DIRECT]. (Factory setting: [OFF])
| [IP ADDRESS] | IP address of the camera (Factory setting: [192.168.0.1])
| [SUBNET MASK] | Subnet mask (Factory setting: [255.255.255.0])

NOTE

- The startup time after turning on the power may be longer due to starting of the network.

- When changing the settings of [DEVICE SEL], the changes will not be reflected until the camera is restarted. Setting screen termination may take some time due to the restart of the network service after the setting is changed.

- Some of the items not included in the table cannot be set.

- [ENCRYPTION] will be fixed to [WPA2-AES].

- Depending on the used wireless module, some of the items in [BAND], [CHANNEL(2.4GHz)], and [CHANNEL(5GHz)] may not be able to select.

## Connecting to the wireless access point ([INFRA(SELECT)]/[INFRA(MANUAL)])

This is the setting to connect the camera to a wireless access point.

### When connecting by searching the wireless access point (SSID)

Select the [NETWORK] menu → [DEVICE SEL] → [WLAN].

Select the [NETWORK] menu → [WLAN PROPERTY] → [TYPE] → [INFRA(SELECT)].

In the [NETWORK] menu → [WLAN PROPERTY], set each item as necessary.

- For details about the setting items, refer to “[WLAN PROPERTY] setting items when set to [INFRA(SELECT)] or [INFRA(MANUAL)]”.

Select the SSID of the searched wireless access point.

Skip to step 6 if [ENCRYPT KEY] (encryption key, password) is not set.

If the [ENCRYPT KEY] is set, enter the password, and select [Enter].

Close the menu or return to the level of the [NETWORK] menu.

Check the network connection.

Once connected, is displayed on the screen of the camera.

### When entering the wireless access point (SSID) manually

Select the [NETWORK] menu → [DEVICE SEL] → [WLAN].

Select the [NETWORK] menu → [WLAN PROPERTY] → [TYPE] → [INFRA(MANUAL)].

In the [NETWORK] menu → [WLAN PROPERTY], set each item as necessary.

- For details about the setting items, refer to “[WLAN PROPERTY] setting items when set to [INFRA(SELECT)] or [INFRA(MANUAL)]”.

In the [NETWORK] menu → [WLAN PROPERTY] → [SSID], enter the SSID of the wireless access point to connect.

Skip to step 6 if [ENCRYPT KEY] (encryption key, password) is not set.

If the [ENCRYPT KEY] is set, enter the password, and select [Enter].

Close the menu or return to the level of the [NETWORK] menu.

Check the network connection.

Once connected, is displayed on the screen of the camera.

#### [WLAN PROPERTY] setting items when set to [INFRA(SELECT)] or [INFRA(MANUAL)]

[ENCRYPT KEY] | WPA/WPA2 encryption key (Factory setting: [01234567890123456789abcdef])
[IPv4 SETTING] | [DHCP] | Setting the DHCP function [OFF]: Does not use DHCP. [CLIENT]: Automatically acquired with the DHCP when connected by setting [TYPE] to [INFRA(SELECT)] or [INFRA(MANUAL)]. [SERVER]: When connecting by setting [TYPE] to [DIRECT], enable the DHCP server function of the camera. (Cannot be selected.) (Factory setting: [OFF])
[IP ADDRESS] | IP address of the camera (Factory setting: [192.168.0.1])
[SUBNET MASK] | Subnet mask (Factory setting: [255.255.255.0])
| [DEFAULT GATEWAY] | Default gateway (Factory setting: [192.168.0.254])

NOTE

- The startup time after turning on the power may be longer due to starting of the network.

- When changing the settings of [DEVICE SEL], the changes will not be reflected until the camera is restarted. Also, the setting screen termination may take some time due to the restart of the network service after the setting is changed.

- ENCRYPTION in WEP is not supported.

- Some items cannot be set depending on the settings such as [DHCP].

- When [DHCP] is set to [CLIENT], some of the information acquired automatically with DHCP is displayed in the menu.

  For details of the network status, confirm by selecting the [NETWORK] menu → [INFORMATION] → [STATUS].

- All of the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway must be correctly set.

  For details, contact the network administrator.
