Configuring the 950AP
950APs are configured and managed via a web browser. Up to 32
users and 32 devices can be configured to connect securely to the
950AP, with up to seven devices connecting simultaneously.
Once you have installed the 950AP, you can begin the short
configuration process. You can complete the setup over Bluetooth
or using an Ethernet connection.
To configure the 950AP using Bluetooth:
1. Make a note of the 950AP’s Bluetooth address, which is displayed
on a label underneath the unit.
2. Perform a device discovery on your Bluetooth-enabled PDA or
laptop. Refer to your device’s documentation for more
information.
3. Look for the 950AP’s Bluetooth address and connect to it.
4. Launch your web browser and enter the 950AP’s default IP
address ‘http://192.168.1.1’. The Initial Configuration screen
appears.
To configure a 950AP using an Ethernet connection:
1. Visit www.red-m.com and to download the Red-M Setup
application from the support area.
2. Install and run Red-M Setup. This finds the 950AP’s IP address
and provides a link to it.

3. Look for your 950AP’s Bluetooth address in the list of access
points displayed by Red-M Setup. A new 950AP has a red tick by
its name while previously configured 950APs have a green tick.
An 950AP’s name will be in the format: 950AP-xxxxxxxxx.
4. Click on the 950AP’s address. Your web browser window opens
and displays the 950AP management interface.
5. Complete the Initial Configuration process (see below).
Note: Your 950AP is supplied to you in initial configuration
mode. This means you can only initially connect a Bluetooth
device to complete the Initial Configuration. Once this is
completed, you can set up Bluetooth connectivity for other
devices.
Hint: The 950AP’s Bluetooth address is displayed on a label
underneath the unit.
Note: By default, the 950AP uses a DHCP server to obtain an IP
address. If there is no DHCP server on your LAN or the 950AP
cannot find one, you must configure the 950AP using Bluetooth
and the default IP address, 192.168.1.1.
