Switching Connection Modes#

If you’ve already configured your robot to connect using either Access Point or Station mode, you can freely switch between the two.

Regardless of which mode you want to switch to, begin by opening the robot’s settings:

A circular screen showing the VEX AIM interface with the Settings tile highlighted in the center. The tile has a white wrench icon on an orange diamond with the label Settings below it, surrounded by other icons on a dark blue background.

Then press the Radio icon.

Switch to Access Point Mode#

Press the Access Point icon to enable Access Point mode. The icon will turn green when enabled.
