Mandatory BSS Use the Mandatory BSS field to enter the IEEE MAC address of the AP where the mobile
computer is required to associate. The mobile computer associates to only this AP when
communicating on the network. Enter an AP MAC address to associate to an AP that has a
compatible ESSID.
Power Mode A Spectrum24 radio has two main power consumption modes, Continuous Aware Mode
(CAM) and Power Save Poll (PSP) mode. Use the Power Mode drop-down list to specify the
power mode to be used by the radio. CAM provides the best performance but uses the most
power. CAM is the preferred mode for devices running on AC power. PSP saves significant
amounts of power over CAM and is the preferred mode for devices running on battery
power.
