Saving Radio Settings
The radio settings in the Client update the registry. Those settings will be erased during each cold boot (or power cycle) unless
you save a REG file containing the Client’s radio settings in the \IPSM\Autoinstall folder of the device.
Using the Registry
Each device contains a RegEdit Power Tool that can export specific registry entries into a single REG file that contains only the
selected registry keys. Use RegEdit to create a REG file that contains the 802.11b radio settings and save the REG file to the
\IPSM\Autoinstall folder. Then, the REG file will be installed and the radio settings applied when the device boots up.
Do NOT place two REG files that contain overlapping registry data into \IPSM\AutoInstall at the same time.
Saving Radio Settings on One Device
1. Configure the radio and save settings in the Client.
2. Verify that the radio works that way you want it to.
3. Perform a warm boot; tap Start > Power Tools > Reboot > Warm Boot . Wait as the device boots up.
4. When the Desktop appears, tap Start > Programs > Power Tools > RegEdit .
5. Navigate to the key \HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\MDC\802.1x .
6. Leave the key highlighted and tap File > Export .
7. Save the REG file with a name of your choice to the \IPSM\AutoInstall folder. (Use the SIP to enter the name.)
8. Tap OK . This REG file will load during the next cold boot.
Saving Radio Settings on Multiple Devices
After you have configured the radio on one device and exported those settings into a REG file—see Saving Radio Settings on
One Device on page 5-15 —copy that REG file and paste a copy of it on your hard drive. Then, save that same REG file to the
\IPSM\Autoinstall folder of the devices that you want to have the same radio configuration.
During each hard reset, Autoinstall calls that REG file, which loads the radio settings and configures the Client.
