Step-by-step guide

The suggested way for iOS is to make the WLAN dongle known to the Project Assistant App 1 time, then connect to it from within the app when needed.

1. User should note down the SSID of the dongle as seen in iOS WLAN settings - but do NOT

connect to it!

        

2     Open Project Assistant, choose either Project Assistant or Single Camera Assistant mode.

        

3     Tap on the 3 dots in the upper area and select "installation tools".

        

4      Add WLAN dongle and enter the SSID noted before in Step 1.

        

5      After that a small view will be present on the bottom area that allows to directly connect to the            dongle from within the app.

• The "Scan QR code" only works for CPP7.3 cameras e.g. Flexidome 8000i
• Not needed for CPP14 cameras e.g. FLEXIDOME indoor 5100i

        

6    Then connect to the camera using the "Connect via WLAN" option and choose "Select Camera" the dialog should correctly show the detected camera.
