RF Setup Menu
You cannot change the MAC address on the Dolphin terminal. Each terminal has its
own unique factory-set MAC address. The MAC address is a standardized data link
layer address that is required for every port or device that connects to a LAN. Other
devices in the network use this address to locate specific ports in the network and to
create and update routing tables and data structures.
F1 SET SSID
Press <F1> to set the SSID. This value is case sensitive. Enter a value for the SSID
option and press <ENTER>. Once the SSID is written, the Dolphin 7200 RF
terminal must be reset to activate the new SSID.
The SSID (Service Set Identifier) is a unique, case-sensitive identifier that is attached to
selected packets sent out over the radio network. Nodes associating to the access point
must use the same SSID or their association requests will be ignored. The SSID can
have up to 32 characters.

The SSID and Subnet

settings on the access
point.
