5. Select the appropriate wireless encryption mode and enter the required settings (check with your network administrator for the proper settings if you do not know them). Appendix A lists the possible encryption settings.

Click the Submit button at the bottom of the window (you may need to scroll) to save your changes.

Now click I/O Port on the left side of the screen to configure the serial ports, and then click either S1 to configure Serial Port 1 or S2 to configure Serial Port 2.

6. Configure the serial port settings so that they match the settings on your device. For example, if your device is set for 9600bps, odd parity, and XON/XOFF flow control, you must change the settings on the SX-560 to these settings.

Click the Submit button at the bottom of the window (you may need to scroll) to save your changes.

When you have finished with all your configuration changes, you must restart the SX-560 for these changes to take effect.

Using the Internal Command Console to Configure the SX-560

You may skip this section if you have completely configured the SX-560 using ExtendView or the SX-560 Internal Web Pages. However, if you are using the bridge mode, you MUST use the Internal Command Console (see Chapter 4 for information on configuring bridge mode.

The Internal Command Console is a command line oriented method for configuring the SX-560. It provides more comprehensive capabilities than either ExtendView or the Internal Web Pages, but is not as easy to use. Advanced users may prefer to use this method because it is concise, fast, and powerful.

To use the Internal Command Console:

1.The simplest way to access the Internal Command Console is via a terminal (for example, a Windows PC running the HyperTerminal Accessory program) connected to serial port 2 or 3. If you are using the SX-560-6900 Evaluation Daughtercard, the included serial cable can be used for this purpose. If you are not using the Evaluation Daughtercard, then you must provide the appropriate cable to connect pins 21, 22, and one of the ground pins on the OEM header to the terminal (transmit data on the SX-560 must connect to receive data on the terminal, and vice- versa). The terminal must be set for 115.2Kbps, 8-bit characters, no parity, and no flow control.
