1.2.6 Button Definition
There is one multi-function push button “WEC/Reset”in this device. According to different
button pressed duration, the device will take specific reaction. For ease of interacting with the
device, you can also check the Status and WiFi LED to determine when to release the button. The

WEC/Reset
(Press 3 sec)
There are two alternative AP modes defined for the
device to operate with WEC (Wireless Easy
Connection) feature. One is Master Mode (by default),
and the other is Slave Mode.
Please manually configure the Wireless Setting for the
Master AP through web UI first, and also prepare a
Slave AP that already been set to Slave Mode.
Press the WEC/Reset button of the Master AP for 1~3
seconds, release it to trigger the WEC process. Then,
WiFi Green LED flashes fast.
Press the WEC/Reset button of the Slave AP for 1~3
seconds, release it to trigger the WEC process. Then,
WiFi Amber LED flashes fast.
Note: The Slave AP must be an un-configured one, if it
has already been paired and configured before, please
reset its Slave configuration first.
After a few seconds (normally about 30~60 seconds).
The Master and Slave APs can be paired automatically,
and auto-duplicates the VAP1 wireless setting of the
Master AP as that of the Slave AP.
(If there is something wrong during paring the two
devices, the process will be finished in 2 minutes.)
Once the easy configuration process completed, the
Status LED will be recovered to its original behavior
(prior to you triggered it). And the WiFi LED will be
Solid when Slave AP is connected to the network.
