Select A Mounting Location General Guidelines • Locate the WAP in a central location. Mounting height or position (ceiling/wall) will not affect performance, but higher mounting will provide better coverage. • Avoid mounting near kitchens or rooms with large appliances that may give off EMI noise, which can reduce connection speed, and in extreme cases, block WiFi connectivity altogether. • As a rule of thumb, each WAP can cover about a 300 ft (100m) circle (actual performance varies based on multiple variables). • Plan multiple WAPs about 600 ft apart. Signal should overlap but only slightly. • Use network site survey tools (not included) to determine mounting locations if possible. This will ensure you get the best coverage and performance from your installation. Kitchen Area (Weak signal due to interference) WAP Router Strong Signal Weak Signal www.snapav.com | Support: 866.838.5052 Araknis Networks Wireless Access Point Quick Start Guide Step 2. Install Wiring Decide how the WAP will be powered, then install the required wiring. Network Cable Requirements • Use a Cat5e/6 straight-through cable. 568B termination is recommended: EIA/TIA 568B Pattern (Gold Pins Facing Up) Pin 1 Pin 2 Pin 3 Pin 4 • White/Orange Orange White/Green Blue Pin 5 Pin 6 Pin 7 Pin 8 White/Blue Green White/Brown Brown Maximum cable length is 328 feet (100m). A repeater device is required for longer runs. PoE Requirements Caution – Use an 802.3af/at compliant PoE injector, switch, or router to power the WAP. Non-compliant devices can harm the WAP and lead to unpredicted results. Power Requirements for Non-PoE Applications • AC Outlet – 100-240V AC, 50/60Hz (AN-100: 0.3A; AN-300: 0.6A) • DC Input – 12V DC 1A (AN-100); 2A (AN-300) Wiring Instructions Warning – Do not connect any equipment to the wiring until everything has been terminated and testing is complete. A. For PoE installations, run a network cable from the PoE device to the WAP and terminate both ends to the same pattern. The DC power supply is not needed. B. For non-PoE installations, locate an outlet for the power supply. Pro Tip – If needed, extend a 2-conductor power wire from the power supply to the WAP. © 2014 Araknis Networks® Araknis Networks Wireless Access Point Quick Start Guide Wiring Diagram Mobile Apps Web Browser Access Router 1 Gbps 11 13 15 10 12 14 16 Link/Act 17 18 SFP AN-300-SW-R-16 PoE Switch WAP with Power Supply PoE Powered WAP www.snapav.com | Support: 866.838.5052 Araknis Networks Wireless Access Point Quick Start Guide Step 3. Mount the Access Point Table Top/Shelf The WAP comes with rubber feet installed for placement on flat surfaces. The mounting bracket is not required for this application. Junction Box Mounting The mounting bracket is compatible with most common junction box and plaster ring dimensions, including common ceiling box sizes: • Single/Double Gang • 3” Octagonal Box • 4” Square Box • 4” Octagonal Box A. Place the mounting bracket over the junction box and attach it loosely with 2 screws. (6-32 x 1” screws included) B. Level or align the bracket with nearby object and tighten the screws enough to secure it. Avoid over-tightening and warping the bracket. C. Connect the wiring to the WAP and push any extra wiring back into the opening. D. Snap the WAP onto the bracket. 10 © 2014 Araknis Networks® Araknis Networks Wireless Access Point Quick Start Guide Wall or Ceiling Mounting A. Place the bracket over the desired mounting location. B. Level the bracket or align it with nearby objects for uniformity. Point the arrow on the bracket up for wall mounting. C. Mark the “C” or “D” slots on the mounting surface. D. Thread one of the included drywall anchors into the center of each mark using a Phillips screwdriver. E. Level or align the bracket with nearby object and tighten the screws enough to secure it. Avoid over-tightening and warping the bracket. F. Connect the wiring to the WAP and push any extra wiring back into the opening. G. Snap the WAP onto the bracket. 11 www.snapav.com | Support: 866.838.5052 Araknis Networks Wireless Access Point Quick Start Guide Ceiling Tile Mounting A. Place the bracket over the desired mounting location and align it with nearby objects for uniformity. B. Mark the “C” or “D” slots on the ceiling tile (and the center hole if needed for wiring). C. Cut the opening with a keyhole saw. Use a drill to make clean holes for the mounting screws. D. Place the ceiling backing plate and nuts on top of the tile as shown and fasten the mounting bracket to the tile using the included screws. E. Connect the wiring to the WAP and push any extra wiring back into the opening. F. Snap the WAP onto the bracket. 12 © 2014 Araknis Networks® Araknis Networks Wireless Access Point Quick Start Guide Step 4. Check Operation of the WAP Once the WAP is powered, the status LED can be used to determine proper operation. You may check the Wireless Network Connections in your PC to see if the default SSID “araknis_initial” is being broadcast. If the SSID is being broadcast, continue to the next page to begin setup. Status LED Operation After installing the WAP, connect the network and power cables and check the status LED. Once the LED remains illuminated (no more flashes), then the device is ready to be accessed for setup. Status LED AN-100-AP-I-N Blue LED • Blinking: Device is not working correctly. Refer to the full manual or contact SnapAV technical support. • Solid: WAP is operating correctly. AN-300-AP-I-N Blue/green LED • Solid Blue, no change to green after 2 minutes: Boot-up or network connection issue. • Solid Green: WAP is operating correctly. • Blinking Green: Device is not working correctly. Refer to the full manual or contact SnapAV technical support. 13 www.snapav.com | Support: 866.838.5052 Araknis Networks Wireless Access Point Quick Start Guide Step 5. Access the WAP over WiFi Warning – If multiple WAPs are to be installed in the same network, power on and complete network setup for one device at a time to avoid confusion about which WAP you are connected to. Araknis EZ Setup Method (with DHCP Address/Router) Note – Araknis WAPs use a unique setup method that relies on receiving a DHCP IP address. If setup cannot be initiated using this method, see below for instructions to access the WAP at its default IP address. A. Using a PC with a WiFi antenna, connect to the WAP by accessing the SSID, “araknis_initial”. If the SSID does not appear and the WAP LED is flashing, see the “Status LED Operation” on page 13 to troubleshoot the issue, then continue. If the LED is solid (blue for AN-100 and green for AN-300 devices), then check the settings in the PC. Setup Method without DHCP Address/Router A. On a PC with a WiFi antenna, open the TCP/IP settings. B. Change the IP address to “192.168.20.2” and set the subnet mask to “255.255.255.0”. C. Click Okay and open the wireless settings menu. D. Connect to the WAP by accessing the SSID, “araknis_initial”. If the SSID does not appear and the WAN status LED is flashing, see the “Status LED Operation” on page 13 to troubleshoot the issue, then continue. If the LED is solid (blue for AN-100 and green for AN-300 devices), then check the settings in the PC. 14 © 2014 Araknis Networks® Araknis Networks Wireless Access Point Quick Start Guide Step 6. Log In and Complete Setup A. After connecting to the WAP over WiFi, open a web browser and enter the configuration address for your device: • AN-100-AP-I-N use: http://config.an100.wap/ • AN-300-AP-I-N use: http://config.an300.wap/ Note – You can also identify your WAP’s network IP address by using the DHCP table on your router (for DHCP mode), or by using IP scanner software. Free IP scanners available online. B. C. Log into the device using the default login credentials: • Username: araknis • Password: araknis Change the default SSID to the preferred SSID. Pro Tip – It is recommended to assign static IP addresses outside the DHCP range to your network devices. Document the IP information for all devices in a spreadsheet for easier future service. Pro Tip – The Device Name can be used to login to that device in the future. For example, you log in to a WAP for the first time using “http:// config.an100.wap”. Then, you change the Device Name from “an100” to “bedroom”. The next time you want to access the WAP, you can type “http://config.bedroom.wap” instead of the IP address. Pro Tip – The Araknis Networks WAP comes defaulted with an open SSID called “araknis_initial”. This SSID is only for initial setup purposes. It is highly recommended to change the network name and apply better security measures for your wireless network. Note – For additional setup, see the full manual at www.SnapAV.com. 15 www.snapav.com | Support: 866.838.5052 2-Year Limited Warranty Araknis Networks® products have a 2-Year Limited Warranty.
