Enabling Wi-Fi Device Servers
Quatech’s Wi-Fi Device Servers need to have a wireless network
connection established before they can be configured for use. To
enable the wireless connection, you need to obtain the SDS’ IP
address as outlined below. Once you have the IP address, you can
configure the SDS for wireless communications via the Web interface.
Note: In Ad hoc mode, the Link
LED on the Ethernet port will
g
low green when your wireless
SDS finds and communicates
with another device.
Note: Wi-Fi Device Servers link
via an AP in Infrastructure
mode; they connect directly to
another device in Ad hoc mode.
In Infrastructure mode, you can use your wireless SDS just as you
would a wired SDS, but it will communicate via an access point on
the 801.11b network rather than through an Ethernet cable. The SDS
will scan all channels until it finds an AP, at which time the Link
LED on the Ethernet port will glow green.
The following briefly describes how to obtain the IP address of the SDS
and to enable wireless communications. For greater detail, see
Installing
the device drivers
on page 16 and Setting network parameters on page 47.
