Signal is weak.
Incorrect password
Another controller is already communicating.
---
Incorrect security settings
How to resolve
Press the reset switch*) to reset to the factory default settings.
Configure the communication settings again.
Use the instrument in a good signal environment.
Configure the security setting to the same as that of LN-100.
Enter the correct password.
Check whether it is communicating with another controller.
Wait until the authentication completes.
It takes too long for WPA2 authentication.
When the W-LAN mode is set to Mode B
Access point cannot be found.
Wireless connection to the controller is disabled.
Attempting to connect with an access point that cannot be connected unless the MAC address is registered in advance.
The channel of the access point may be set to 12 or greater (out of the search range of LN-100).
Change the channel.
MAC address for LN-100 needs to be registered in advance.
*) How to press the reset switch
Set the W-LAN mode to Mode A, and then turn the power ON.
Before being connected to the wireless (while the W-LAN LED is blinking), hold down the reset switch until it beeps twice.
