Socket Mobile 11Mbps manual Power Saving Mode, TX Rate

Power Saving Mode

The Power Saving Mode option is designed to conserve battery life of you computer. When the Power Saving Mode is activated by selecting the Enable button, your 11Mbps Wireless LAN CF Card will go into sleep mode to minimize power consumption.

Note: When power saving mode is enabled, the Access Points you use need to support power saving as well so that the communication can be established.

TX Rate

The 11Mbps Wireless LAN CF Card provides various data rate options for you to select. Data rates options include Auto, 1Mbps, 2Mbps, 1M/2Mbps, 5.5Mbps, and 11Mbps. In most networking scenarios, you will see that the factory-set default “Auto” will prove the most efficient. This setting will allow your 11Mbps Wireless LAN CF Card to operate at the maximum data rate. When the communications quality drops below a certain level, the Wireless LAN CF Card will automatically switch to a lower data rate. Transmission at lower data speed is usually more reliable. However, when the communications quality improves again, the Wireless LAN CF Card will gradually increase the data rate again, until it has reached the highest available transmit rate.

Link

Similar to Ping Command, this tool allows you to point-to-point data transmission quality between two stations. By entering IP address of another station and set the timeout and packet size, you may check whether the communication has been made successfully or not.
