Wi-Fi Access Point (WiFi-AP) mode allows the emulator to create its own network (like a router) and have other devices (e.g., a laptop) connect to it. Use this mode to access the emulator and target via a PC within the range of the Wi-Fi signal.
MPLAB ICE 4 comes up with a preset fixed SSID and Password:
- SSID: "ICE4_MTIxxxxxxxxx" (where xxxxxxxxx is your tool unique serial number)
- password: "microchip"
Note: When MPLAB ICE 4 is connected in Wifi-AP mode, computers with Windows OS may
disconnect from other Wi-Fi connections.
