Configuring a Wireless Module (Continued)

Verify that SeaMAX software has been installed successfully and that a wireless
SeaI/O module is connected to power and ready to be configured to communicate
with your wireless network. This module will become the “base” module.

NOTE:

To configure a wireless SeaI/O module, you must be using a laptop
or desktop computer with a wireless 802.11b/g compatible adapter.
The security settings on many wireless access points (WAP) prevent
you from seeing Ad Hoc devices by default. Therefore, configuring
a wireless SeaI/O module through a Wireless Access Point (WAP)
is not supported.


Wireless Configuration Overview

1. Using a wireless enabled computer, connect to the Ad Hoc network “SL_Recovery”.
2. Move your wireless adapter to subnet 192.168.0.x.

3. Use the Ethernet Config utility to configure the wireless SeaI/O module to work

with your wireless network (SSID, topology, channel, and security) settings.

4. Using the same wireless enabled computer, connect to your wireless network.

5. Use the Ethernet Config utility to configure the wireless SeaI/O module to use the

same subnet as your wireless network.

6. Move your wireless adapter back to your wireless network subnet.

7. Use MaxSSD to configure the Slave ID of the wireless SeaI/O module and test

settings.

The detailed configuration instructions that follow are for Windows XP. The basic
instructions for Windows 2000 are the same. If you have any questions, please
