side of the dongle).
4. Select the Com Port (typically COM1).
5. Select the Dongle (accessory) Type.
6. Enter the SSID (4.x only) if the entry field is not grayed out and accessible. Otherwise the SSID is
already loaded.

configuration could not be completed.
8. If the configuration could not be completed, then check the following:
• Cable connection

• Check batteries for the WiFi Accessory
9. After the configuration is complete remove the serial cable and cycle power to the dongle.
10. Connect the accessory to the aircraft wiring harness connecting to the Lynx NGT-9000s.
11. Verify that the SSID name can be seen with a WI-FI device such as laptop or PED.
Note - The SSID may show the default SSID being used, which is typically Wifly-Serial-nn, where
nn is variable per dongle.
