LAN connections

Wireless LAN

The SA-DV6000 supports wireless LAN connections to client computers either locally, through an Intranet or over the Internet. Connecting multiple VTR to a Client PC, or multiple Client PC to a VTR is supported. In addition, it is possible for a client to remotely control the VTR as well.

A list of LAN card currently supported by the SA-DV6000 is shown on Page 4. Any compatible LAN card can be used in the Client PC. For Client PC settings, see the instruction manual of the LAN card or computer.

Wireless Caveats

Low-powered wireless connections are prone to interference from many sources, including, but not limited to, other wireless LANs, cordless telephones, and satellite radio. For further details, see the instruction manual of the used wireless LAN card.

Adverse condition of signals may result in the video being cut-off, noise and in some cases, a disconnection of the network.

In addition, although there are several channels available, as shown below, there is a five channel overlap for each channel, limiting the actual number of channels available in environments where other wireless LANs are present. For example, if a wireless LAN using channel 2 is already in use at near position, the lowest channel you can use for your setup would be channel 7.

Cautionary items concerning Wireless LAN (WLAN)

For the WLAN ESS ID, input the values of ESSID set in: Ad hoc mode: PC of other party

Infrastructure: Access point

WLAN AD HOC MODE

When IBSS is set, the NETWORK MODE setting of the wireless LAN card on the PC side must be set to 802.11 Adhoc. When AHDM is set, the NETWORK MODE setting of the wireless LAN card on the PC side must be set to Adhoc. Depending on the LAN card on the PC side, only 802.11 Adhoc mode may be available.

WLAN CH is the wireless frequency band used for communication. If there is an access point, adapter, etc., using the same band in the proximity, there may be a hindrance in the communication and may reduce throughput or the quality of commu- nication. When setting, check the settings of surrounding access points, etc., to avoid doubling.

N. America

: FCC / 2.412~2.462GHz (11 channels)

Europe

: CE ETSI / 2.412~2.472GHz (13 channels)

Japan

: 2.412~2.4835GHz (14 channels)

France

: 2.457~2.472GHz (4 channels)

Spain

: 2.457~2.462GHz (2 channels)

Since adjacent channels causes signal interference, channels are normally spaced 5 channels apart.

(Set according to operating environment.)
