Setting Up Wireless Communications

The MTS 6513 VCI is capable of communicating on your
workshop network over USB and Wireless. The Net-
work Setup tab in the VCI Manager software provides
a number of functions used to select and configure the
VCI network connection interfaces including wireless
access and security settings.
If you have purchased a WiFi kit, you must insert the
WiFi Adapter dongle into the VCI.
This requires removing the end cabe (two screws) and
inserting the WiFi Dongle (provided in the kit) into the
USB connection slot. See section 4.5 for WiFi Slot loca-
tion. Replace end cap and two screws.
You must be connected to the VCI via USB to access
the settings on the Network Setup tab. If you are not
connected via USB, the controls on the Network Setup
tab are disabled.
The MTS 6513 VCI supports two methods for wirel-
ess communication. With the Access Point Wireless
Communication method the VCI connects to your PC
through an access point in your workshop. With the
Point-to-Point Wireless Communication method the
VCI connects to your PC directly using a USB wireless
adapter. Each of these methods are described in the
following sections.
