Wireless Configuration via Serial Mode

You must configure the WLAN card so that it can communicate on your network. WiPort (WLAN) is
configurable using a PC and a terminal program (like Windows XP HyperTerminal) to access the device serial
port locally. To configure the WiPort (WLAN option), connect a serial cable from the J2 connector of the
installed WLAN option card to a PC.

Jumpers

There are two configuration jumpers located on the WLAN option board. See Figure 4-4 below. These jumpers
must be set to the CFG position to configure the WLAN option.

Figure 4-4. Jumpers location

Once the configuration jumpers are in the CFG position, continue with WLAN Card Configuration to make the
necessary settings for the WLAN option.

Not all devices display information in the same manner and depending on your IT department’s software
choice for configuring the WLAN option, the screens displayed may be different.
