NOTE: For the ACS6000, to allow Wi-Fi functionality, Switch 7-8 MUST be in the Enabled position on the ACS6000
control panel. Please refer to the ACS6000 (A/E) Installation Manual (available at www.brivo.com) for instructions on

The ACS6000 and ACS300 have an internal Wi-Fi interface for communicating with either the Brivo Onair Cloud
Server or Brivo Onsite Server depending upon the panel type. Wi-Fi works in parallel with, or in replacement of,
Ethernet functionality on the ACS6000 and ACS300 control panels. Wi-Fi can also function as a failover for Ethernet.
If both Wi-Fi and Ethernet are enabled, the ACS6000 and ACS300 control panels will default to using the Ethernet
connection.

returned to the WiFi page.
