• AP10 requires a network connection to your viewLinc Enterprise Server and a
Network Time Protocol (NTP) server. AP10 can also use its default NTP servers
if Internet is accessible from the network.
• It is usually easiest to configure the access point before mounting it.
1. Connect the Ethernet cable to Ethernet port of AP10. If possible, connect to the same
network where the viewLinc Enterprise Server is, so that you can verify the connection
when doing the setup.
2. If the Ethernet cable does not provide power, connect the DC power supply:
a. Connect the plug to the power supply connector of AP10. Make sure the plug is
oriented correctly and goes in all the way. Rotate the plug to lock it in, otherwise it
will not stay reliably connected.
b. The power supply comes with multiple adapters for wall sockets. Connect the adapter
you need, and plug in the power supply to a wall socket.

ENGLISH
3. A setup wizard starts when AP10 is first powered up. Use the touch interface to complete
the wizard:
a. Select a language for the touchscreen display.
b. Configure the network settings so that AP10 can join the network:
• Select Dynamic IP address (DHCP) if you are connecting the access point to a
network that assigns network configuration settings automatically.
• Select Static IP address to configure network settings manually. Using the
information supplied by your IT administrator, enter the IP address, Subnet mask,
and Default gateway.
DHCP is the most common way to assign network settings. Do not use a
static address unless your IT administrator has instructed you to do so.
c. Configure the Network Time Protocol (NTP) servers that the access point will attempt
to synchronize with. If you have a local NTP server in the network, replace one of the
default NTP server hostnames with its IP address or hostname.
d. Select a VaiNet channel (1 ... 8). Each access point in range of each other must have a
unique channel assigned to it.
e. Enter the IP address or hostname of the viewLinc Enterprise Server. Leave the TCP
port at default 12600 unless you know it has been changed.
f. Enable Installation Mode to start connecting data loggers to your system.
g. Wait for the display to change to the home screen.
4. If the setup wizard has already been completed previously, press the symbol to open
the Settings screen and check all of the settings listed in step 3. There are also some
optional settings for display and LED, and for locking the touchscreen using a password.
The default password is ap123456.
6 M211821EN-E
5. After configuring all of the settings, verify the status of the access point from the home
screen. The access point should be connected to the network and the viewLinc Enterprise
Server, and the Installation Mode should be enabled so that new data loggers can be
connected.
The access point will not turn on its radio if it does not have
accurate time. This means that data loggers cannot connect to the access
point until it has synchronized its time with a Network Time Protocol (NTP)
server. To accomplish this, the access point must have a network
connection to one of the configured NTP servers. Connecting to the default
NTP servers requires Internet access, and network firewall must allow the
access point to connect to UDP port 123.
An NTP connection error continues to be shown while AP10 is
synchronizing time with the listed NTP servers. It may take up to 15 minutes
for it to disappear even when the NTP servers are reachable. Wait patiently.
CAUTION!

1. Attach AP10 to its mounting location using the most suitable mounting option. Ensure the
unit is securely fixed if you are mounting it higher than 2 m (approx. 6 ft) or in a location
where it would pose a hazard if dropped.

2. Point the antenna up or down for best wireless performance.
3. Connect the Ethernet cable.
4. If the Ethernet cable does not provide power, connect the DC power supply:
a. Connect the plug to the power supply connector of AP10. Make sure the plug is
oriented correctly and goes in all the way.
b. Rotate the power plug slightly to lock it to the connector.
c. Connect the power supply to the wall socket.
5. Secure the power supply so it does not fall or hang on its cable.
6. Wait for the access point to start up. Verify from the touchscreen that the access point has
an IP address, and is connected to viewLinc. Make sure installation mode is still enabled if
you want to connect new data loggers.
For troubleshooting instructions, see AP10 User Guide (M211860EN) available
at www.vaisala.com/ap10.
Accessing the web interface
Touchscreen interface may be hard to access after AP10 has been installed. AP10 also has a
web interface that you can use to remotely view access point status and configure its settings.
1. Verify the IP address of the access point from the touchscreen interface.
2. Open a web browser.
3. In the address field of the web browser, enter https:// and the IP address of AP10. For
example: https://192.168.10.47
4. The default user interface language is English. If you want to use another language for this
session, select it from the drop-down menu.
5. Enter the login information:
•User name: apadmin
•Password: ap123456 (default)
6. Select Log in to access the interface.

Overview of AP10 Access Point
Vaisala VaiNet Access Point AP10 is a wireless access point that collects data from VaiNet
wireless data loggers and transfers it to the viewLinc Enterprise Server using a wired Ethernet
connection. AP10 implements Vaisala's proprietary VaiNet protocol. It can connect up to 32
RFL100 Data Loggers to the Vaisala viewLinc Monitoring System. The wireless connection
operates on 868 MHz, 915 MHz, or 920 MHz frequency band depending on the model. For
more information on viewLinc system installation, see the viewLinc Setup Guide and viewLinc
User Guide for your viewLinc Enterprise Server version.

AP10 can be powered from the Ethernet connector using Power over Ethernet (PoE) or from
the power supply connector using the included AC/DC adapter. If both power sources are
connected, the AC/DC adapter is utilized to power the device. AP10 is IP22 rated, and is
suitable for indoor industrial applications.
AP10 has two user interfaces:
• Touch interface on the front panel. Use this interface to set up the device during
installation and to locally check the connection status.
• Web interface via the Ethernet connection. This interface provides advanced
configuration features and can be accessed remotely.
AP10 installation location and range
In a typical indoor space, the wireless range of AP10 is at least 100 m (328 ft). In an open space
with line-of-sight and no interfering structures, the range can be over 500 m (1640 ft). Up to 8
access points can be placed within range of each other, even side-by-side, as long as they each
have their own VaiNet channel.
Walls and ceilings are good locations for AP10. Line of sight is not required. If possible, place
AP10 in the same floor as the data loggers. Point the antenna up or down for best wireless
performance.
Avoid placing AP10 close to large metal surfaces, as they may reduce the range of the radio
signal.
