Network features

You may connect your multifunction terminal to a wireless network.

However, practical knowledge of your computer configuration is required to set up a network.

You can connect your machine to a PC using a USB cable or make a wireless connection (via radio) with a PC or network.

 

If you have a WLAN adaptor, you

 

can incorporate your machine as a

 

network printer into a radio network.

Important

This works only with an approved

adaptor that you can obtain from our

 

 

ordering department. For further

 

information, contact

 

www.sagem-communications.com.

 

 

Type of radio network

A radio network or WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) is created when at least two computers, printers or other peripheral devices communicate with each other in a network via radio waves (high frequency waves). The transmission of data in the radio network is based on the standards 802.11b and 802.11g. According to how the network is set up, it may be described as an infrastructure network or an ad-hoc network.

 

Beware, when you are using a

 

wireless connection, that certain

 

items of medical equipment,

CAUTION

sensitive or security systems may

be affected by the radio

 

 

transmissions of your device; in all

 

cases, please follow safety

 

guidelines closely.

 

 

Radio infrastructure network

In an infrastructure network, several devices communicate via a central access point (a gateway or router). All data is sent to the access point (gateway or router) from where it is re-distributed.

Radio ad-hoc network

In an ad-hoc network, the devices communicate directly with each other without passing through an access point. The speed of communication across the whole radio network is as fast as the weakest connection in the network. The speed of communication is also dependent on spatial distance between transmitter and receiver, as well as the number of barriers, such as walls or ceilings.

Please note that in ad-hoc mode, Important the WPA/WPA2 encryption method

is not available.

Radio networks (WLAN)

Three steps are necessary to incorporate your machine into a radio network (WLAN):

1Configure the network to your PC.

2Set up the parameters for your machine so that it can function in a network.

3Having set up the parameters for your device, install the Companion Suite Pro software onto your PC with the necessary printer drivers.

Once the machine is incorporated into a WLAN network, you can from your PC:

•print documents on the multifunction machine from your usual applications,

•scan colour, grey scale or black and white documents on your PC.

 

The PC and all other devices must

 

have their parameters set up to the

 

same network as the multifunction

 

machine. All the details needed for

 

setting up the device, such as the

 

network names (SSID), type of radio

 

network, encryption key, IP address

 

or subnetwork mask, must match

Important

the specifications of the network.

You will find these details on your

 

 

PC or on the Access Point.

 

To find out how to set up the

 

parameters for your PC, please

 

consult the users’ manual for your

 

WLAN adaptor. For large networks,

 

please seek the advice of your

 

network administrator.
