At the time of this document, a JACE 7 series controller (JACE-700), running AX-3.6 or later is required, with a Tridium JACE 7 WiFi adapter card option (T7-WIFI) installed in that controller’s MiniPCI slot.

The “platWifi” software module must be installed in the JACE. Note you can do this either before or after physically installing the WiFi adapter card option.

To configure the JACE for WiFi access, you must know the SSID of your site’s local 802.11b/g WiFi router (or access point), as well as its network key, that is its security password.

If the router or access point is configured to use MAC address filtering, note you can find the WiFi adapter’s MAC address (physical address) in the platform TCP/IP Configuration view, under the “Interface 3” area. You will need to enter that MAC address into your router’s MAC address filter table.
