4.1.5 Brightness
Scroll bar for adjusting the brightness of the screen. Note that increasing the brightness
consumes more battery power. This can also be changed by using the Swipe Down menu
(
Section 3.4) anytime the system is not collecting data.
4.1.6 Wi-Fi Network
Connecting to a wireless network allows you to send a mini-report to someone by email.
This connection can be through a standard Wi-Fi network or through a hotspot on your mobile
device while in the field.
Note that LMX100 CANNOT connect to Public Hotspots (typically restaurants, hotels and
airports) that require a web-based login and acceptance of their Terms & Conditions. It
also CANNOT connect to unsecured networks (networks that do not require a password).
If you are already connected to a Wi-Fi network, the name of the network is listed beside the Wi-
Fi Network field. Selecting
Wi-Fi Settings takes you to a sub-menu (Figure 4-4) for connecting
and configuring Wi-Fi settings.

connected and entered a password.
•
White = Not connected
