Configuration via External Access Point
Learn how to configure your controller to connect to tools wirelessly using an external access point instead of the integrated one. This involves connecting the access point and controller to a wired local network.
The setup procedure includes:
- Enabling the 'External access point' in basic settings.
- Configuring 'SSID', 'Security', and 'Password' in network settings.
Note that only one SSID can be registered per controller.
