Before Use
Network authentication / data encryption (encryption method /
encryption mode)
The method for encrypting data during wireless transmission. Check
which security setting is used: WPA2-PSK (AES), WPA2-PSK
(TKIP), WPA-PSK (AES), WPA-PSK (TKIP), WEP (open system
authentication), or no security.
Password (encryption key / network key)
The key used when encrypting data during wireless transmission. Also
called the “encryption key” or “network key”.
Key index (transmit key)
The key set when WEP is used for network authentication / data
encryption. Use “1” as the setting.
If system administrator status is needed to adjust network
settings, contact the system administrator for details.
These settings are very important for network security. Exercise
adequate caution when changing these settings.
For information on WPS compatibility and for instructions on
checking settings, refer to the access point user manual.
A router is a device that creates a network (LAN) structure for
connecting multiple computers. A router that contains an internal
Wi-Fi function is called a “Wi-Fi router”.
This guide refers to all Wi-Fi routers and base stations as “access
points”.
If you use MAC address ltering on your Wi-Fi network, be sure
to add the camera’s MAC address to your access point. You can
check your camera’s MAC address by choosing MENU (=
33)
> [
4] tab > [Wireless settings] > [Wi-Fi Settings] > [Check MAC
Address].
Connections require that a memory card be in the camera.
You can also change the camera nickname on the screen in step
2 (=
150).
You can also access the screen in step 3 by choosing MENU
(=
33) > [ 4] tab > [Wi-Fi connect’n].
To connect without entering a password in step 5, choose MENU
(=
33) > [ 4] tab > [Wireless settings] > [Wi-Fi Settings] >
[Password] > [Off]. [Password] is no longer displayed on the SSID
screen (in step 4).
Once you have connected to devices, recent destinations will
be listed rst when you access the Wi-Fi menu. You can easily
connect again by pressing the [
][ ] buttons to choose the
device and then pressing the [
] button. To add a new device,
display the device selection screen by pressing the [
][ ]
buttons, and then congure the setting.
If you prefer not to display recent target devices, choose MENU
(=
33) > [ 4] tab > [Wireless settings] > [Wi-Fi Settings] >
[Target History] > [Off].
Using Another Access Point
When connecting the camera to a smartphone through the Wi-Fi menu,
you can also use an existing access point.
Also refer to the access point user manual.
Conrming Access Point Compatibility
Conrm that the Wi-Fi router or base station conforms to the Wi-Fi
standards in “Interface” (=
215).
Connection methods vary depending on whether the access point
supports Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS, =
132) or not (=
133). For
non-WPS access points, check the following information.
Network name (SSID/ESSID)
The SSID or ESSID for the access point you use. Also called the
“access point name” or “network name”.
