WLAN Transmission
For a WLAN transmission, set the Default XMT media to WLAN from Configuration page 6 (see section 3
of this manual). It is necessary that the IT Manager of your facility configure the wireless access point(s) and
E-Scribe workstation. Also, it is required that your IT Manager set the ELI 250 WLAN configuration values.
Refer to section 3 for more information on WLAN configuration setup. The ELI 250 can be configured for
DHCP (Dynamic Host Communication Protocol) and for WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) security.
NOTE: Environmental conditions may affect the reliability of WLAN transmissions.
If DHCP is set to NO, your wireless access point will have a static network setting and the following
parameters must be configured in the ELI 250:
IP Address
Def Gateway
Sub Net Mask
If DHCP is set to YES, your wireless access point will have an automatic network setting and IP Address,
Def Gateway and Sub Net Mask do not need to be configured.
In either DHCP setting, the following wireless network parameters must be configured in the ELI 250 by your
IT Manager:
Host IP
Port Number
SSID
Channel Number
NOTE: Addresses are always entered as 4 sets of 3 digits; therefore, an address of 192.168.0.7
must be entered on the ELI 250 as 192.168.000.007.
If WEP Security is disabled on your access point then set Security (WEP) to NO. If WEP Security is enabled
on your access point then the following wireless network parameters must be configured in the ELI 250 by the
IT Manager:
Security (WEP): YES
WEP Key
WEP Key ID
NOTE: The range for the WEP Key on the ELI 250 is 0-3. If the range on your access
point is 1-4, then 0 at the ELI 250 maps to 1 on the access point; 1 at the ELI 250 maps to 2
on the access point, etc.
