WiFi Direct Connection
The WiFi direct 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: "Fluke1732<12345678>".
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.
Some Windows versions show the WiFi icon
notification area of the task bar 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.
Note
