Connecting the Terminal to a Wireless Network

You connect the terminal to a wireless network through the on-board radio (802.11a/b/g/n, Bluetooth,
and/or GSM/CDMA). Each radio has its own configuration utility and requires specific information about
the wireless network to connect. Successful connection depends on your network infrastructure about
which you will need specific information from your network administrator.

WLAN (802.11a/b/g/n)

The 99EX has a 2.4 GHz 802.11b/g/n - 5.0 GHz 802.11a/n WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) radio.
The radio is interoperable with other 802.11a/b/g/n, Wi-Fi compliant products including access points
(APs), workstations via PC card adapters, and other wireless portable devices. By default, the 802.11a/
b/g/n radio is disabled after each factory reset. The next step is to configure the connection parameters
of the radio to connect to a wireless network.

WLAN Radio

The WLAN radio is configured in the Honeywell WLAN Security Supplicant, which you access by tapping
the program icon in the task tray near the bottom of the touch screen. For complete configuration instruc-
tions, download the

Honeywell Secure Wireless (SWC) Client User’s Guide from

www.honeywellaidc.com

. A link to this guide appears on the Dolphin 99EX product page.
