SITE PLANNING AND INSTALLATION
2.9 ORIENTING THE HUB ANTENNA
The ideal location for the transmitting antenna is from four feet
above the ßoor to one foot below the ceiling. The antenna should
be located so that all transceivers are within the maximum
80 meter radius service area.
To service more than one ßoor will require either a second wireless
hub, or extending the Ethernet cables through the ßoor to the
individual workstations.
2.10 CONFIGURING THE WIRELESS HUB SOFTWARE
See Chapter 3 for conÞguration information. After conÞguration,
align the components as described in Section 2.11.
2.11 ALIGNING FreeLINK COMPONENTS
You can orient the FreeLINK components prior to loading network
software, as the wireless hub transmitter and transceivers establish
a wireless communications protocol that is independent of data
from the Ethernet network.
To orient the transceiver antenna, follow this procedure:
¥ Locate the transmitting antenna and transceivers as described
in the preceding sections of this chapter. Then, with both the
transmitter and transceiver(s) powered on, check the LEDs on
top of each transceiver unit. See Figure 2-9 on page -9.
¥ The green Link Status LED may be ßashing, indicating that a
link with the transmitter is not yet established. One or more of
the yellow Signal Level LEDs may be ßashing at this time also.
¥ Rotate the antenna 360 degrees slowly as you observe the
yellow Signal Level LEDs. Note the direction in which the
maximum number of Signal Level LEDs are illuminated. All
Signal Level LEDs need not be lit to establish a link.
