Mount the AP-3 in the ceiling or the upper wall. Power the AP-3 by the PoE, The Wi-Fi phone will connect with
the AP-3 automatically and obtain IP address from your local DHCP server. If there are several AP-3s, suggest installing
them accordance with 15m * 15m position evenly distributed (Specifically to be adjusted according to the actual
situation of the site). The IP Phone working well if it auto connects the Wi-Fi network and signal strength is greater
than level 2.
PS: If your local network has no DHCP, the AP-3 will use 192.168.0.254/24 as his local IP address, please pay attention,
maybe it will IP conflict with your other local machine.
Change the default setting so that it will different with our factory settings.
Usually, there is a default password setting in the AP, the user no need to change anything, just installing the IP
Phone, it will auto obtain password from the AP, for detail please see the Step3.1. If you want to change the default,
follow the below step:

3. Long pressing “OK” key in the IP Phone, it’ll ask password input, do that(the password length should be 4-8,
including digits, letters and symbols---this is not the real password for the AP-3, just a PIN code), submit the
setting, set a static IP for the phone, the network segment must be 192.168.0.x, Net Mask 255.255.255.0(such as
192.168.0.100, 255.255.255.0), it will ask reboot, press ok button, and then execute the 4th step.
4. Long pressing the “OK” button 3 seconds, the LCD will display “EWA Initial successful！ Do not power off！”, It
means the AP-3 configure succeed, the Wi-Fi phone will auto connect to the AP-3. If the LCD display “EWA Initial
Fail！Do not power off！”, It means configure error, please check the network cable, the static IP in the IP
Phone is correct or not, and if the AP-3 reset or not. When install multi AP-3s, you may use the same IP Phone
(which configured in the step 3rd) to reset password for them. PS: This step just resetting the password for the
AP-3.
5. Wi-Fi Phone installation: When installing other Wi-Fi phones, just pressing the OK button, and then input the
