This chapter describes how to use the Airborne Control Center (ACC) to configure the
AirborneDirect™ Ethernet Bridge. The ACC is a user-friendly graphical-user interface (GUI)
menu and data display. The interface is intuitive, allowing tasks to be performed simply by
pointing and clicking your mouse.
LAUNCHING THE ACC
On the Windows XP Start menu, navigate to the Quatech submenu and click on Airborne
Control Center. The ACC scans the local subnet for Airborne devices and displays a list like the
one shown in

Note:
The MAC address for the device you wish to connect to can be found on the
label located on the back of the enclosure.
Note:
The 802.11b Bridge (ABDB or WLNB models) has a web interface available
if the firmware does not contain the optional LEAP feature. The web
interface is virtually identical to the ACC interface, so all of the information in
this chapter applies to the web interface also. To access the web interface,
enter the IP address of the Bridge in the address bar of the browser. The
web interface requires Microsoft Internet Explorer 5 or later.
Note:
The 802.11b/g Bridge (ABDG or WLNG models) have no web interface.
