Medium
Quick answer
On Comelit Mini Wi-Fi (6741W), Mini ViP Wi-Fi (6742W), and Maxi ViP Wi-Fi (6842W) video entry monitors, the Access point mode status means the indoor monitor is not yet connected to your home Wi-Fi network and is broadcasting its setup access point for pairing in the Comelit App.
Safety first
Stop and check this first
- Never open the Comelit indoor monitor or entrance panel wiring, and never work on the building bus or power supply unit yourself; all wiring and bus tasks belong to a qualified installer.
- When completing User registration in the Comelit App, remember that selecting the only user option deletes all previously registered users on that monitor.
Safe checks you can perform
- Connect your smartphone to home Wi-Fi and select Door Entry Monitors in the Comelit App
- Use the click here link and tap the Access point icon in the Comelit App
- Match the network name on the monitor and confirm your home Wi-Fi with the screen on
- Complete User registration in the Comelit App without unintentionally wiping existing users
Leave these tasks to a qualified professional
- Do not attempt this professional task: Inspect bus power supply stability and building-mode configuration on the Comelit monitor
- Do not attempt this professional task: Verify home Wi-Fi reception at the monitor mounting point and complete app pairing

What it means
According to the official Comelit Group video entry pairing and Smart Registration guides for the Mini Wi-Fi (6741W), Mini ViP Wi-Fi (6742W), and Maxi ViP Wi-Fi (6842W) monitors, the Access point mode status indicates that the indoor monitor is not yet connected to any home Wi-Fi network, so tapping Search for device in the Comelit App produces no results. On the 6741W monitor in building mode with the screen switched off, functions are restricted until the screen is turned on; other Comelit door entry models may vary, and seeing Access point mode alone never proves any monitor hardware is faulty.
