MVP-9000i Modero® Wireless Touch Panel with Intercom
WPA-PSK
From the Security Modes options, press the Simple button to open the Wireless Security: Simple Mode page.
Scroll through the Security Type options to select WPA-PSK (FIG. 71).
WPA-PSK security is designed for environments where using WPA or WPA2 is desirable, but an 802.1x
authentication server is not available. PSK connections are more secure than WEP and are simpler to
configure, since they implement dynamic keys but share a key between the AP and the panel (client).
Using WPA-PSK, the encryption on the AP could either be WPA or WPA2. The firmware in the panel will
automatically connect to the AP using the correct encryption. The WPA encryption type is configured on the
AP, not in the firmware.
APs do not display “WPA” or “WPA2” on their configuration screens:
WPA is normally displayed as TKIP.
WPA2 is normally displayed as AES CCMP.
The following fields are required: SSID and Password/Pass Phrase.
Enter the SSID of the AP.
Enter a pass phrase with a minimum of 8 characters and a maximum of 63.
The exact same pass phrase (including capitalization) must be entered in the access point.
Refer to the Configuring Wireless Network Access section on page 28 for details on these security
options.

WPA-PSK Settings
SSID (Service Set Identifier): Opens an on-screen keyboard to enter the SSID name used on the target AP.
The SSID is a unique name used by the AP, and is assigned to all panels on
that network. An SSID is required by the AP before the panel is permitted to
join the network.
• The SSID is case sensitive and must not exceed 32 characters.
• Make sure this setting is the same for all points in your wireless network.
Password: Opens an on-screen keyboard to enter a passphrase (password).
• This alpha-numeric string must use a minimum of 8 characters and a
maximum of 63.
• The exact pass phrase string (including capitalization) must be entered on
the target AP.
Save/Cancel: • Save - store the new security information, apply changes, and return to the
