Wi-Fi button
The Wi-Fi button is located on the controller front panel. The button is functional only when the Wi-Fi service is configured to operate in Controlled Access Point mode. When this mode is active, pressing the button toggles the Access Point state between "Access Point Running" and "Stopped". See JACE-9000 Wi-Fi modes for more details about configuring modes.
Wi-Fi LED indicator light
The Wi-Fi LED is located on the controller front panel. The light blink patterns indicate the status of the Wi-Fi service. The following table shows led color and blink pattern for different states.
