Installed WLAN Interface

For use with ABF CLS 420i and Mega 8 indicators only.

The board is mounted to the 420 CPU board in place of the Analog Output module.

The WLAN Port 1 serial connection connects to the Printer port on the 420 CPU board.

The power connections to the to the WLAN board go directly to the Power Supply.

Power for the WLAN option board is controlled by a connection between the +5V digital output
connection on the CPU board tot he REM connection on the WLAN option board.

Note

The WLAN option board power jumper must be in the REM position.

The Wired Ethernet jack on the WLAN board is connected to a jack on the back panel for use with
initial configuration.

Run the Lantronix DeviceInstaller program on the company network.

When a new indicator arrives, it is connected to the Ethernet network and turned on.

The WLAN card recognizes the Ethernet connection and changes automatically to Wired Ethernet
mode.

The board receives a DHCP-assigned IP address, with a DHCP name that is “sclxxxx” where the
“xxxx” is the last four digits of the MAC address of the Matchport module.

When the indicator is made, a small sticker is applied to the back with this DHCP name on it.

Note

The DHCP name can be changed during configuration if desired.

Use DeviceInstaller to configure the module’s WLAN settings (SSID and security) so it will attach to
the wireless network. After configuration, remove the Ethernet connection, then cycle power on the
indicator. The WLAN module should then attach to a wireless network and be available for
communications.
