Not a complicate process. The problem sometimes is when you need to download the required software and have no permission on cisco web page.

 First you need to console into the AP. Then, run the command show version and see if your AP is Mobility Express. 

AP Image type : MOBILITY EXPRESS IMAGE
AP Configuration : MOBILITY EXPRESS CAPABLE

If so, then, you must be able to see a SSID CiscoAirProvision.

If you AP is capwap AP then you need to convert if to Mobility Express.

On this case, follow the link below:
