Wifi password

Access Point

When configured as a Wi-Fi Access Point (AP), the CANlink® wireless 4000 allows connections from one or more Wi-Fi Clients.
(More than one connection to a Client requires Multipoint/MultiTalk).

In order to prevent an insecure network, the AP must be configured:

  • with WPA2 enabled, and
  • with a 'complex' password

The password requirements mandate all of the following:

  • length between 24 and 63 characters
  • at least 1 lower case
  • at least 1 upper case
  • at least 1 numerical (0 - 9)
  • 1 special character (! # &, etc)

Tip

If the AP does not accept Client connections, check 0x3001:0x0C [Error Code/ WiFi - Bluetooth].

  • If the password is not valid when creating the AP, the error code 0xDEADC0D1 will be present.
  • If the AP was started with Open Authentication selected, the error code 0xDEADC0DE will be present.

Client Configuration

When configured as a Client, any form of connection may be made:

  • 0: Open authentication (None)
  • 7: WPA/WPA2 Mixed with whatever password is configured on the Server.
