OTC Wireless TRIMAR Network Card User Manual


 
5. Basic Wireless Tab
(See Figure 19)
Wireless On/Off: This control allows a TRIMAR AP to be
switched On or Off. This is not the same as an
on/off switch. It simply allows the wireless
functions of the radio to be switched off for
maintenance or other contingencies.
Visible SSID: The TRIMAR AP can support up to eight SSIDs
simultaneously. Only one can be visible. This
control is used to specify which SSID is to be
made visible. Alternatively, the same control is
used to make all the SSIDs invisible (choose
“None”).
Transmission Rate: This control allows users to specify a data
transmission rate. It is recommended that this
should be left at the factory preset - Best
(automatic). When turbo modes are enabled,
transmission rates are doubled.
The following controls are inter-related:
802.11 Mode: This control sets the TRIMAR AP’s 802.11
operation mode. Note that if 802.11a is
selected, an antenna in the 5 GHz range is
required. All other modes require that the
TRIMAR AP be equipped with a 2.4 Ghz
antenna.
Adaptive Radio Selection: This box is checked by default and this
enables the TRIMAR AP’s Adaptive Radio
feature. This control enables the use of the
TRIMAR’s Super A/G with Dynamic Turbo
mode. It needs to be unchecked if the turbo
mode is disabled or if other turbo modes are
selected.
Super mode: This control determines which type of turbo
mode the TRIMAR AP will use. See Table 2 for
a full explanation of the choices. Turbo modes
always use preset default channels.
