XAP-1500 INSTALLATION
The XAP-1500 high powered access point is designed for optimal performance
as well as for simple and effi cient installation and setup. It designed for mount-
ing on the ceiling, wall or placed on a desktop or other fl at surface. Because the
signal generated by the XAP-1500 is omnidirectional, the unit should be mounted
on a ceiling or wall directly in the center of the desired coverage area. Note that
orientation of the unit is less important than the mounting location.

CONFIGURATION
Default IP Address
The XAP-1500 is not equipped with internal DHCP server. If connected to a Luxul
Router, configuration will be automatic. Otherwise, the IP address of the com-
puter for login and configuration will need to be manually configured. The table
below lists the default parameters of the XAP-1500.

Parameter: Default Value
Default IP address: 192.168.0.16
Default user name: admin
Default password: admin
The Luxul Xen XAP-1500 default IP addresss is 192.168.0.16. If the IP address of your
router is not set to the 192.168.0.X network, a temporary static IP address must be
set on the computer being used for configuration. To do so, set the IP address of
the computer to the 192.168.0.X range and then use the default IP address of your
XAP-1500 as the Gateway/Router. Once configured, set the computer IP configu-
ration back to “Obtain Automatically/DHCP.”
NOTE: Go to http://luxul.com/how-to-videos for videos about
changing the IP address of your Operating System.
Connect a Client Device
Connecting a Wireless Client Device: Connect the client device to one of the
XAP-1500 default wireless networks (LuxulXen1500_24 or LuxulXen1500_5X).
Both Wireless networks will run in Open Security mode. A passphrase is not
required until Wireless Security is configured.
Connecting an Ethernet Device: Use Ethernet cable to connect your com-
puter or device to one of the XAP-1500 LAN ports.
NOTE: Only devices that support 5GHz will see LuxulXen1500_5X
wireless network.
Login
Login to the XAP-1500 with the following steps:
1. Open a Web browser, and enter 192.168.0.16. The access point login screen
will appear.
2. Enter the user name and password (default user name and default password

REGULATORY COMPLIANCE
The device complies with internationally recognized standards covering human exposure to
electromagnetic fields from radio devices. This equipment also complies with FCC radiation
exposure set forth for an uncontrolled environment. In order to avoid the possibility of
exceeding the FCC radio frequency exposure limits, human proximity to the antenna shall
not be less than 20 cm (8 inches) during normal operation.
Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could cause damage and may violate
regulatory approvals. Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the authority to operate the equipment.
The equipment version marketed in the U.S. is restricted to usage of channels 1-11 only.
Health and Safety Recommendations
Warnings for the use of Wireless Devices: Please observe all warning notices with regard
to the usage of wireless devices
Potentially Hazardous Atmospheres: You are reminded of the need to observe restric-
tions on the use of radio devices in fuel depots, chemical plants etc. and areas where the air
contains chemicals or particles (such as grain, dust, or metal powders).
Safety in Hospitals: Wireless devices transmit radio frequency energy and may affect medi-
cal electrical equipment. When installed adjacent to other equipment, it is advised to verify
that the adjacent equipment is not adversely affected.

RF Exposure Guidelines
Safety Information: The device complies with internationally recognized
standards covering human exposure to electromagnetic fields from radio devices.
Warning: Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Radiation:
The radiated output of this device is below the FCC radio frequency exposure limits.
Nevertheless, the device should be used in such a manner that the potential for human
contact during normal operation is minimized.
The end user must avoid any extended human RF exposure directly in front
of the device, up to a distance of 20cm, when unit is on.
When servicing the equipment and selecting a location for the antennas, it is important
to note that a minimum distance of 20cm is required between personnel and the device
or antenna to comply with the radio frequency exposure limit.
The antenna used for this transmitter must be installed to provide a separation distance
of at least 20cm from all persons and must not be co-located
or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
The following safety precautions should be observed:
Do not touch or move the 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 the radio or attempt to transmit data unless the antenna is connected;
this behavior may cause damage to the radio.
