## QR code generation instructions

To configure the Wi-Fi for your IoTReady device, generate QR codes for both the SSID and Password using the free text option on a QR code generation site.

1. **For SSID**: Generate a QR code with the following text: `-> config:ssid:ENTER_YOUR_SSID`
   - When you scan this code, you will see the SSID appear on the 2nd line of the screen.
2. **For Password**: Generate a QR code with the following text: `-> config:password:ENTER_YOUR_PASSWORD`
   - When you scan this code, you will see the password appear on the 3rd line of the screen.
