Hey, DIYers.
I'm Jorge from Alarm Grid.
Today we're going to be going over how to connect your tuxedo
touch WIFI to WIFI So first thing I want to touch base on
is the tuxedo touch WIFI is the only tuxedo touch that
has the WIFI built in.
The original tuxedo touch only had a port for ethernet.
So if you guys are trying to connect to your WIFI
and you're trying to figure out why your tuxedo touch is now
pulling off WIFI connection or anything like that.
Make sure you guys actually have a tuxedo touch WIFI.
That's a common mistake, common confusion,
and it's just going to save you guys a lot of headache.
One cool thing about the tuxedo touch WIFI
is that it also has an ethernet port on the back.
So if you guys don't want Connected to WIFI
you feel like this cat6 cat5.
Cat5 or cat6 cable is more secure,
you guys can always do that as well.
All right, but again if you guys want to connect to WIFI you
guys do have the option to connect
that on the tuxedo touch WIFI.
Now, the other important thing about the tuxedo touch
WIFI is a lot of people get this keypad control--
this keypad for their business systems
because they think it's a communicator.
This tuxedo touch WIFI will not communicate alarm signals,
it is not used as a communicator to the central station,
it has nothing to do with the way
that your panel sends out the alarm signals.
This is just so that the keypad connects to the WIFI
to pull an accuweather.
So you guys can log into its IP address,
through a web browser and you guys
can actually pull up a web emulator as well.
All right.
So this is not an alarm net communicator,
it is just a keypad that connects to the WIFI
and I just want to make sure I clear that up before we move on
to connect into the WIFI.
So let's go ahead and get started.
So first thing we want to do is on the bottom left hand
corner you should see a little gear wrench icon.
We're going to go ahead and hit.
That that's going to be our settings.
After we're there we're going to go to IP.
Once we're in IP very important you want to make sure bottom
left hand corner.
Make sure lawn is set to off.
All right WIFI is set to on.
Once you're there it should pull up all your WIFI networks,
you're going to want to go ahead and select
the one that you plan to use.
For instance, I'm going to use Alarm Grid.
So I'm going to select like that.
And then let me see here.
So yeah I'm going select--
I'm going to leave it as a dynamic IP.
And usually it asks you to enter in a password,
but I'm already connected to it.
It looks like it had been connected to it before.
So I'm going to actually show you
guys how to connect to a different WIFI.
So this one of our other WIFI is here.
And if you're not already connected to it,
it's actually going to ask you guys for the pass
phrase or shared key.
So if you click on that box.
It'll bring up a keypad so you can
enter in your WIFI password.
So I'm going to enter mine in right now.
[BEEPING]
You enter in your password.
You're going to hit go and then after you
have all that entered in you hit the little floppy disk
icon in the middle.
That's going to hit-- that's going to save it.
That's going to save your information.
And then it'll let you know if it's successfully connected
or not.
If you guys ever need to go back in,
disconnect or reconnect to a different network,
if you guys have multiple WIFI networks
and you need one or the other.
Again just go back to IP.
And it'll show it right there.
All right since I'm connected to AT&T, if I go to it.
It's already going to show connected.
Now, if you guys want to use the hard wired ethernet connection.
So if you guys don't want to use WIFI just turn the WIFI off.
Turn lawn on and then that's going
to look for the-- that's going to get the IP
address from the actual ethernet port on the back of the system.
All right, obviously you want to save your work
whenever you're done.
I'm going to leave my WIFI on for now.
So as you saw here as soon as I switch WIFI it's on.
It says this will switch off the lawn network
and you want to continue just say yes.
So it looks like it automatically
switch the lawn to off and WIFI will stay on
and then you can just hit Save.
About no changes in settings.
And then just back out to the home screen.
