Data Sheet

Configuration Pages

The Parallax WX Wi-Fi module comes pre-configured as a wireless access point (AP mode). To

join its network, find the access point that starts with wx- followed by 6 alphanumeric characters.

Later, if you have configured your Wi-Fi module to reside on another network, you can make it

reappear as an access point by rapidly grounding and releasing the /PGM pin four times. If your

Wi-Fi module is in an Activity Board WX, this can be done by pressing and releasing the RST

button rapidly, four times. In a breadboard, a pushbutton with one terminal connected to GND

and the other to /PGM is convenient.

After your device (computer, phone, or tablet) has joined the Wi-Fi module’s network, you can

go to its Configuration home page by navigating to http://192.168.4.1.
