The CPU Power Save Mode parameter will reduce the amount
of power drawn by the Ethernet Adapter during operation. This
is a useful feature for customer who are powering the Ethernet
Adapter with a battery.
Note:
Enabling the CPU Power Save Mode will reduce the
Ethernet Adapter’s rate of data transfer.
The Ethernet Adapter’s serial port supports three Echo Modes
when configuring the unit through a terminal session: None,
Simple, and Terminal. When set to None, the Ethernet Adapter
will not echo typed characters to the terminal screen. When set
to either Simple or Terminal, all characters typed are echoed to
the screen during a terminal session. The Ethernet Adapter is set
to Terminal mode by default. This parameter will only affect the
appearance of data within the configuration menu; it plays no
role in normal operation.
The Ethernet Adapter configuration menu contains several
parameters that are not needed for normal operation. A pass-
word is needed to enable Technical Support Access to view
these settings.
If you call Proxim Technical Support, they may ask you to
enable the Technical Support parameters, but, in general, you
will not need to access these parameters.
