WiFi Direct Connection
The WiFi connection uses WPA2-PSK (pre-shared key)
with AES encryption. The passphrase shown on the
screen is required to establish a connection from a client to
the device.
1. On the client, go to the list of available WiFi networks
and look for a network with the name:
“Fluke173x<serial-no>”
for example: “Fluke1736<123456789>”.
2. Enter the passphrase provided on the WiFi
Configuration screen when you are asked. Depending
on the operating system of the client, the passphrase
is also called Security Key, Password, or similar.
After a few seconds the connection is established.
Note
On Windows, the WiFi icon in the notification area
of the task bar is shown with an exclamation mark
. The exclamation mark indicates that this WiFi
interface does not provide an Internet access. This
is normal since the Logger is not a gateway to the
Internet.
WiFi-Infrastructure
The WiFi connection requires the WiFi-Infrastructure
license and supports WPA2-PSK. This connection requires
a DHCP service running in the access point to assign IP
addresses automatically.
To establish a connection with a WiFi-access point:
1. In WiFi Configuration screen, push  to highlight
Name (SSID) and push .
A list of access points within range shows. Icons show
the field strength. Avoid access points with no or only
one green bar since they are too far away for a reliable
connection.
2. Push  to highlight an access point and push  to
confirm.
3. In WiFi Configuration screen, push  to highlight
Passphrase and push .
4. Enter the passphrase (also called Security Key or
Password) and push . The passphrase has 8 to 63
characters and is configured in the access point.
The assigned IP address shows when the connection
is successful.
