If an incorrect passphrase or

access key is entered NDX/5XS

will display an alert message.

Note: As a security measure,

a router may also require the

NDX/5XS’s MAC address to be

entered before allowing it to join the wireless network. This

type of security feature is known as ‘MAC address filtering’.

The NDX/5XS MAC address is shown in the ‘Factory settings

> System Status’ page.

Note: The wireless passphrase/access key is created when

the wireless router is first set up and could be a word or a

series of numbers and letters. If the passphrase/access key

is not known, check on the router settings page or with the

person who initially set up the router.

Note: If a router offers multiple security configurations,

NDX/5XS will automatically offer only the most secure one.

Note: If WEP security is used the router should be set to

“auto” or “open” authentication.

If the selected network is insecure

and requires no passphrase or

access key to join, NDX/5XS will

display an alert message. Pressing

the handset ok/list key will

immediately connect NDX/5XS

to the network and display a

confirmation screen.

Note: Wireless connection difficulties can sometimes be

resolved by changing the wireless connection channel in

the router settings.

4.5.2 Non-DHCP (Static) Network

Connection

If DHCP is de-selected in the

Network Settings menu, five

further parameters will be

displayed.

Parameter Options

IP: User definable (numerical entry)

Default: 0.0.0.0

Mask: User definable (numerical entry)

Default: 0.0.0.0

Gateway (Gtwy): User definable (numerical entry)

Default: 0.0.0.0

DNS1: User definable (numerical entry)

Default: 0.0.0.0

DNS2: User definable (numerical entry)

Default: 0.0.0.0

These settings enable NDX/5XS to connect to a network

using a fixed IP address. On selecting each one in turn,

numerical entry screens will be displayed that require

completion with the appropriate network IP address

settings. Consult your network router’s user documentation

for help with specifying fixed IP address settings.

This wireless network is

insecure and requires no

passphrase or access key.

Press OK To Connect

Setup

Note: Devices installed on a network have an IP address

through which they are identified by all the other items

on the network. DHCP is a set of rules that enable the

automatic allocation of addresses as items are connected

(or switched on while connected) to the network. NDX/5XS

is set up by default to use DHCP.

Note: If NDX/5XS is connected to the network both

wirelessly and via Ethernet (wired), the Ethernet connection

will take priority.

4.5.1 Wireless Network

Connection Set Up

If the Wireless parameter is

selected in the Network Settings

menu the Select Network menu

will display a list of the available

networks. An option not to use a wireless connection is

also provided. Use the handset up (5) or down (6) keys

to scroll through the list and the ok/list key to select a

network.

Note: NDX/5XS is compatible with most commonly used

Wi-Fi standards. Routers that support 802.11b and 802.11g

will work, however those with 802.11n compatibility are

recommended for best results.

Note: As with any wireless network hardware, NDX/5XS

connection reliability will be affected by both network

router performance and Wi-Fi signal quality. To minimise

the possibility of poor connection reliability, NDX/5XS should

be connected to network audio sources by no more

than one wireless “leg”. Other “legs” necessary between

NDX/5XS and the network audio sources should be wired.

Note: NDX/5XS cannot connect to a “hidden” wireless

network.

If the selected network is secure

and requires a passphrase or

access key to join, NDX/5XS will

display an alert message. Pressing

the handset ok/list key will then

open a text entry screen for entry

of the passphrase or access key.

Use the handset numeric/text

keys to enter the passphrase or

access key taking care to ensure

that the letter case is correct.

Press the handset ok/list key

when text entry is complete. In

the illustration the passphrase is

“flatfish”.

If the network is successfully

joined NDX/5XS will display a

confirmation screen.
