Federal Communications Commission Radio Frequency Interference
Statement
Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B
digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equip-
ment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If
this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver
is connected.
Consult the Panasonic Service Center or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Safety Notice
Do not touch or move antenna while the unit is transmitting or receiving.
Do not hold any component containing the radio such that the antenna is very close or
touching any exposed parts of the body, especially the face or eyes, while transmitting.
Do not operate a portable transmitter near unshielded blasting caps or in an explosive
environment unless it is type especially qualified for such use.
Warning
To assure continued compliance, use only shielded interface cables when connecting to a
computer or peripheral. Also, any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the
party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate this equipment.
FCC RF Exposure Warning:
•This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled
environment.
•This equipment must be installed and operated in accordance with provided instructions
and minimum 1.5 cm spacing must be provided between antenna and all person’s body
(excluding extremities of hands, wrist and feet) during wireless modes of operation.
•This equipment may use multiple installed transmitters, which may be capable of simulta-
neous transmission.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following
two conditions:
(1)This device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2)This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause

After finishing the first-time operation, make a connection setting for Wireless LAN
using the following procedure.
Connecting to Wireless LAN
Automatic network detection
A connection manager periodically scans wireless networks for available connections. If
any networks are detected and no networks are connected yet, the connection manager
will try to connect with a more favorable network first. If such a network cannot be used
or the connection manager cannot connect with any suitable network due to an invalid
WEP key, the connectivity bubble (A) is displayed for manual network connection. (
below)
If you don’t see the suitable network, tap [Settings] ( page 5, step (3)) to display the
detailed configuration window.
If the connection manager is able to connect to a network automatically, the connec-
tivity bubble ( below) will not appear, and you can follow the steps described in
page 5 step (3) to access the connection manager.
NOTE
Connect to a wireless LAN
(1) Select a network to connect to and what the network
will connect to, then tap [Connect] from the connec-
tivity bubble.
(2) If the connectivity bubble pops up as shown at right,
enter the WEP key, then tap [Connect].
(A)

(3) Tap to display the connectivity bubble.
(4) Tap [Settings] to display [Connections] screen*1.
*1You can also tap - [Settings] - [Connections]
tab - [Connections].
(5) Tap [Advanced] tab - [Network Card].
(6) Tap [Wireless] tab.
(7) At [Networks to access], select [AllAvailable] or [Only
access points].
(8) Tap on the access point you want to connect to from
the list.
[Configure Wireless Network] screen will appear.

(12) If the CF-P1 is not connected with a host computer
via a sync cable, then on the navigation bar nor-
mally indicates the Wireless LAN connection is prop-
erly established.
You can also check on [Network Adapters] tab to
check if the IP address obtained from DHCP is cor-
rect.
(13) Tap [Panasonic Pegasus WLAN CF Module] to see
the IP address information.

Connecting to Wireless LAN
Peer to peer mode
The Peer-to-peer mode is also known as the “Ad-Hoc” mode. There are two ways to con-
nect CF-P1 with other devices in the peer-to-peer mode. The first way is to create an Ad-
Hoc network on CF-P1, then allow other devices to connect to CF-P1 by joining the net-
work. The second way is simply by connecting CF-P1 to an existing ad-hoc network if the
peer device has already created such a network.
(1) Display [Configure Wireless Networks] screen (
page 5 step (6)).At [Networks to access], select [Only
computer-to-computer].
(2) Select [Add New… ] from the list.

(5) Tap and hold the network name and tap [connect].
(6) Now the new ad-hoc network has been created, and it
is visible to other WLAN devices.
CF-P1 is connected to the ad-hoc network.
Remove Settings
Connect
(3) Type in the network name in [Network name]
(CFP1test, for example). Then add a checkmark for
[This is a device-to-device (ad-hoc) connection].
Ad-hoc channel is assigned automatically.
(4) Tap [ok] to return to the previous screen.
