Tip

The LocationFreeTV uses the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz
channels. If you select [Automatic: 2.4 GHz only] or
[Automatic: 5 GHz only], the base station
automatically selects the optimum wireless signal for
the specified band.

Using another wireless device
nearby

If you are using two or more base stations within
close range, or using your base station in range of
a 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz wireless access point that
conforms to IEEE 802.11a, b, or g standards, the
wireless signal from the base station to the
monitor may be disrupted. In this case, set your
base station to [Automatic: 2.4 GHz only] or
[Automatic: 5 GHz only] in the [Wireless
Channel] window, and then set the wireless
access point to a fixed channel. If images still do
not display properly on the monitor, select
[Manual] in the [Wireless Channel] window and
manually change to a different channel than that
set for the wireless access point.

Note

The term “wireless access point” above does not refer
to the wireless transmission function of the base
station, but to a separate wireless transmission device.

Stopping radio wave emission from
the monitor

When using the monitor in a place where radio
wave emissions are prohibited, switch the
monitor settings to wired LAN.

Note

The base station always emits radio waves when its
power is on.

A wireless LAN is a network (LAN) over which
data is sent and received via wireless
transmission. A wireless access point forms the
center of a wireless network. You can use the base
station to construct a wireless network for
computers equipped with an integrated wireless
LAN function or a wireless LAN card.
Here are two examples of what you can do with a
wireless network:
• Computers in various rooms of your home,

such as a living room and a child’s room, can
connect to the Internet wirelessly via the base
station.

Tips

• The wireless LAN described here is composed of the

base station and a computer equipped with an
integrated wireless LAN function or a wireless LAN
card. If you are not going to construct a wireless
network, you do not need to make the wireless LAN
settings described in the following section.

• When using the base station as a wireless access

point for a computer, the computer must be equipped
with an integrated wireless LAN function or
wireless LAN card that conforms to IEEE 802.11a,
b, or g standards.
