Spectrum24 Network Configuration 6-3
Introduction
Wireless LANs allow the mobile computers to communicate wirelessly and to send captured data
“real time” to a host device. Before a mobile computer can be used on a Spectrum24 LAN the facility
must be set up with the equipment required to run the wireless LAN and the mobile computer must
be properly configured. Refer to the documentation that came with the Access Points (APs) for
instructions on setting up the required hardware.
The MC9000-K and MC9000-S Network Adapter settings and Spectrum24 settings configure and
monitor the wireless connection. The Mobile Companion icon appears in the task tray and indicates
mobile computer signal strength as follows:
Icon Status
