Connecting Your Cutter Via Wifi - PrismCut P20 User Manual

1.4 Connecting your PrismCut cutter via WiFi
WiFi is the recommended connection method for your PrismCut. Other than the
power cord, there is no need for any other wires if using WiFi communications.
When your PrismCut powers on for the first time, you will see a message asking
you to connect it to your home WiFi (same as you would connect your laptop or
wireless printer). Before powering on, make sure you know the name and pass-
word of your home WiFi router and that you are in range of the WiFi signal. If
you connect via WiFi, there is no need to connect any other wires, except power.
Press the SEARCH button and the PrismCut will display the name of nearby WiFi
routers. Select your router from the list and enter your password. (Sometimes
the password is printed on a label that is on your home router). It should be the
same WiFi password you use to connect your laptop to your home WiFi.
Once connected, your PrismCut will display your router name and an IP address
at the top of the cutter's home screen. The IP address on the cutter and the IP
address used by the software program in your computer must be the same in
order for both sides to communicate.
If the top line of your cutter's screen says "HI-LINK_xxxx" you are not yet connected to your
home WiFi router. On your cutter screen look under SETTINGS->WIFI to connect the cutter to
your WiFi using the same WiFi password you use to connect WiFi for other home devices.
For advanced users, it is possible to configure the PrismCut to connect via point-to-point WiFi as might be the
case if you are selling at an outdoor craft fair where there is no internet. This technique is discussed in section 3.9
of this manual and is intended for advanced users.
