RF Link Info (Cont.):

 

Link Quality

Displays the quality of the link from the wireless NIC to the Wireless Access

 

Point (direct sequence spread spectrum) in real time (None, Poor, Fair, Good,

 

Very Good, and Excellent).

 

• Even when link quality is at its lowest you still have a connection, and the

 

ability to transmit and receive data, even if at lower speeds.

 

Note: “Link Quality” and “Signal Strength” are applicable to RF connections

 

only. It is possible to have an RF signal to a WAP, but be unable to communi-

 

cate with it because of either incorrect IP or encryption settings.

 

 

Signal Strength

This indicator displays a description of the signal strength from the Wireless

 

Access Point connection in real time (None, Poor, Fair, Good, Very Good, and

 

Excellent).

 

SNR (Signal Noise Ratio) is a measure of the relative strength of a wireless RF

 

connection. Given this value and the link quality above, you can determine the

 

noise level component of the SNR. For example, if signal strength is high but

 

the link quality is low, then the cause of the link degradation is noise. However,

 

if signal strength is low and link quality is low the cause would simply be signal

 

strength.

 

 

Data Rate

The data rate (in Mbps) at which the panel is currently communicating with the

 

target WAP.

 

Note: Data rates for 802.11b communication are: 1, 2, 5.5, and 11 Mbps.

 

 

Secondary Connection Page

The Secondary Connection page sets the communication information for an installed wireless interface card. The NXD-CV5 Touch panel is not enabled for wireless communication and therefore, this page is not user-editable.

Wireless Security Page

The options on the Wireless Security page allow you to select from the wireless security methods supported by the NXA-WC80211GCF Wi-Fi card. These security methods incorporate WPA, WPA2, and EAP technology (some of which require the upload of unique certificate files to a target panel).

Refer to the Appendix B - Wireless Technology section on page 191 for more further information.

Some encryption and security features may/may not be supported depending on the type of wireless card being used:
