# FlashAir Connection

When you can't connect to FlashAir, check the following one by one.

# The FlashAir™ Wireless LAN access point suddenly disappeared. What happened?

There are most likely 2 reasons for this:

  1. The camera in which the FlashAir™ SD Card is inserted turned off automatically or went into Stand-By mode because it was not used for a certain time. In this case the FlashAir™ SD Card does not get power from the camera anymore and the Wireless LAN turns off. Solution: Check the settings of the camera and extend the time until the camera goes to stand-by or will turn off.

  2. FlashAir™ has a time-out function. If there was no Wireless LAN communication for a certain time, FlashAir™ will automatically turn off the Wireless LAN function to save power. Solution: With the FlashAir™ configuration tool you can set the time until the Wireless LAN is turned off according to your preference.

# Are there any FlashAir™ compatible devices other than digital cameras?

Any device with an SDHC™ slot can potentially be used.

# How far is the wireless communication distance?

It depends on the neighbouring environment. Wireless communication is possible at a distance of just a few centimetres and up to ten meters.
