WLAN Settings

Before the XPress DR+W can communicate on an 802.11b/g wireless network, the WLAN settings must match the wireless network. By default, the XPress DR+W is set to Ad Hoc network mode, and its wireless Network Name (SSID) is LTRX_IBSS.

You can configure WEP, WPA, or WPA2/802.11i settings:

Note: WPA and WPA2/802.11i security are only available in infrastructure mode.

Installing the XPress DR+W for Initial Configuration

Two settings are required for the XPress DR+W to communicate on a wireless network:

‹The Server (0) settings

‹The WLAN (4) settings

Complete the following steps to connect and initially configure the XPress DR+W required settings. Initial configuration is done using the Setup Mode’s Change Setup menu.

1.Connect one end of the supplied serial cable to the unit’s serial port 1. (See 9-PinRS-232 to Serial RJ45 Cable (P/N 500-103)on page 22.)

2.Connect the other end of the serial cable to a terminal or a PC’s serial COM port.

3.On the PC, open a terminal emulation application (e.g. HyperTerminal). Configure the XPress DR+W serial settings as 9600 baud, 8 bits, not parity, 1 stop bit, and no flow control (9600, 8, N, 1).

4.Enter Setup Mode by simultaneously connecting the power supply and holding down the x key. Upon connection, the following information displays:

5.Press Enter within 5 seconds to display the Change Setup menu.

Server Configuration (Option 0)

You can configure the unit’s basic network parameters when you select Server configuration (option 0).
