H ardware Installation
The device can be fixed to a pole or the wall using the supplied mounting kits.
Beforeinstalling the device, make sure you have all of the package contents available and a
PC with Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 or later, for using web-based system management
tools.
When installed outdoors, make sure the LAN ports are covered by RJ-45 rubber
seals provided with the package.
Do not remove the water-proof casing, and avoid touching or moving the device
when the antennas are transmitting or receiving.
When installing the device, make sure to keep the radiating at a minimum
distance of 20 cm (7.9 inches) from all personsto minimize the potential for
human contact during normal operation.
Do not operate the device near unshielded blasting caps or in an otherwise
explosiveenvironment unless the device has been modified for such use by
qualified personnel.

3.1 Wall Mounting
IAP-W420 Wall-mounting Measurements (Unit = mm)
IAP-W422 Wall-mounting Measurements (Unit = mm)
To mount the device to the wall, simply insert a screw through the screw hole on the edge of

IAP-W420/W422 UserManual
ORingIndustrial Networking Corp 10
the unit and tighten the screw for added stability.
Instead of screwing the screws in all the way, it is advised to leave a space of about 2mm to
allow room for sliding the device between the wall and the screws.
3.2 Pole Mounting
You can mount the device to a pole using adjustable steel band straps included in the
package.
Thread the two supplied metalmounting straps through the screw holes on the edge of the
unit and then put the straps around the pole, as shown below. Put the washers and nuts
through the straps and tighten the strap.

3.3 Wiring
For pin assignments of the power connector, please refer to the following tables.
3.3.1 Power Supply
The device is powered by an Ethernet cable via the PoE port, which is on the right hand side.
Make sure the PoE port is connected with an RJ-45 cable and check if the power LED lights
up after connection.
3.3.2 Reset
For protection, the reset button is placed in the case covered by a screw head. If you need to
reset the device, remove the screw and use a very small point object like a needle or a
toothpick to poke the reset button. To reboot the device, press the Reset button for 5
seconds.To restore the device configurations back to the factory defaults, press the Reset
button for 3 seconds.

5.1 Network Connection
Before installing the device, you need to be able to access the devicevia a computer
equipped with an Ethernet card or wireless LAN interface. To simplify the connection, it is
recommended to use an Ethernet card to connect to a LAN.
Follow the steps below to install and connect the deviceto PCs:
Connect a computer to the device.Use either a straight-through Ethernet cable or cross-over
cable to connect the LAN port of thedeviceto a computer. Once the LED of the LAN port
lights up, which indicates the connection is established, the computer will initiate a DHCP
request to retrieve an IP address from the AP.
5.2 Web Browser Management
An embedded HTML web site resides in the flash memory of the device. It contains
advanced management features which you can managefrom anywhere on the network
through a standard web browser such as Microsoft Internet Explorer (Internet Explorer 5.0 or
later versions). It is based on Java Applets which can reduce network bandwidth
consumption, enhance access speed, and provideuser-friendly viewing windows.
Note: By default, IE5.0 or later version does not allow Java Applets to open sockets. You
need to explicitly modify browser settings in order to enable Java Applets to use network
ports.
Open a web browser on your computer and type http://192.168.10.2(default gateway IP of the
