Panasonic BL-WV10A Setting Description Channel, Encryption, Key, MAC Address, Filtering

6 Setup Menu

Setting	Description
Channel	The communications channel to be used can be chosen from
	either AUTO or a number between 1 and 11.
	Choosing AUTO will allow the BL-WV10A to automatically
	detect an available channel at launch. If the quality of the
	connection is not, you can manually choose another channel
	as well.
Encryption	Choose to turn encryption either on or off.
	Sets an encryption key when encryption is turned on.
Encryption	Sets an encryption key when encryption is turned on.
Key	Up to 4 encryption keys can be set in advance.
	Allowable keys:
	Choose from encryption keys 1 through 4 to use with
	encryption.
	Key types:
	The types of encryption keys are 64 bit (10 hexadecimal digits
	or 5 letters), 128 bit (26 hexadecimal digits or 13 letters), or 152
	bit (32 hexadecimal digits or 16 letters). The level of security
	increases with the number of bits, but there may be a slight
	decrease in network speed as a result.
	Keys 1 through 4:
	Enter an encryption key that corresponds in length to the type
	selected.
MAC Address	Choose to either turn MAC address filtering (to specify the
Filtering	addresses of connected devices) on or off. Turning it on will
	allow you to specify the MAC addresses of the devices which
	are allowed to connect. Up to 16 address can be specified.

Note

•Use the same encryption key number and type for any wireless terminal to be connected.

Note

•To register a BL-C30A, you will need to specify 2 MAC addresses. Choose the MAC address indicated on the base of the BL-C30A and one from the following table based on the last digit in the BL-C30A's MAC address.

0 —> 1

2 —> 3

4 —> 5

6 —> 7

8 —> 9

A —> B

C —> D

E —> F

For example, if the MAC address for the BL-C30A is 00:80:F0:54:C0:C4, you should specify 00:80:F0:54:C0:C4 and 00:80:F0:54:C0:C5.

Certain changes may require the BL-WV10A to restart.
