Performing settings automatically with the WIRELESS button (WPS
indicator)
Use the camera's WIRELESS button to automatically perform wireless settings.
1. Turn on the camera without connecting the LAN cable to enable the wireless settings.
→ After the initial pan/tilt operations are performed, the live indicator stops blinking orange and lights
orange. The live indicator lights orange and the camera starts up in wireless LAN mode about 90
seconds after the camera was turned on.
2. Select ON for the WPS function (Push-button method (PBC)) on the wireless router. (For more information,
refer to the operating instructions included with your wireless router.)
3. Press and hold down the WIRELESS button for a second or more until it blinks orange.
→ The camera and the wireless router automatically start performing wireless settings. Settings may take
up to 2 minutes to be performed.
→ When the automatic wireless settings have been successfully completed, the camera restarts about 5
seconds after the WIRELESS button stops blinking orange and lights green. The WIRELESS button
goes off, and after about 90 seconds lights green again when the wireless connection has been
successfully completed.
→ The wireless settings are updated.
4. After the WIRELESS button lights green, start the “IP Setting Software” on the PC and access the camera.
• See page 222 for information on accessing the camera with the “IP Setting Software”.
• Confirm the status of the wireless connection on the [Status] tab of the “Wireless” page.

Note
• If about 2 minutes pass after the WIRELESS button starts blinking and the wireless connection is not
completed, the WIRELESS button will blink red for about 10 seconds and then go off. If this happens
the wireless settings have failed. Check the wireless router's settings and connection procedures, and
then try performing the settings again.
• If the WPS settings fail to automatically configure, check the settings of the wireless router and the
camera.
• If you want to turn off the WIRELESS button’s and live indicator's green light, change the “Indicator”
settings on the [Basic] tab of the “Basic” page. (®page 55)
• When the WPS settings have successfully been automatically configured, “External registration” is
changed to “Not allow” from “Allow”.

There are 2 methods for performing settings automatically with PIN code settings: using the PIN code preset
to the wireless router or using a selected PIN code set to the camera.

1. Check the preset 8 digit PIN code of the wireless router with a PC.
• For more information on how to check the preset PIN code of the wireless router, refer to the operating
instructions included with your wireless router.
• Depending on the wireless router used, the PIN code (default setting) may be written on a sticker
attached to the wireless router.
