VCM3 is capable of communicating on your
workshop network over Wireless. The "Network
Setup" tab in the "VCI Manager" software
provides a number of functions used to select
and configure VCM3 network connection
interfaces, including wireless access and
security settings.
i You must be connected to the VCM3 via
USB to access the settings on the "Network
Setup" tab. If you are not connected via USB,
the controls on the "Network Setup" tab are
disabled.
The VCM3 can be configured to connect via an
access point. The following must be prepared
before configuring:
• An IP address and subnet mask that can be
assigned to the VCM3 (if the existing LAN
does not assign IP addresses automatically)
• A wireless network access point SSID
(network name)
• Network security standard WPA2 enabled
• Data encryption via TKIP or WEP (64-bit or
128-bit)
• WLAN password
