Wireless (WLAN Interface):
Wireless parameters
Wireless Mode
: To establish a
WLAN connection with ac
-
cess points,
Infrastructure
is
always set here.
SSID-Profiles
: Number of dif
-
ferent WLAN networks that
should be configurable.
Phy Mode
: Here you define in
which frequency band (2.4 or
5 GHz) the access points to
which the radio modem
wants to connect operate.
You can also use both fre
-
quency band at the same
time.
Country selection
: Setting
the country in which the
HG G
76343/4/5 is to be
used. This is important so
that the country-specific
rules for the use of the fre
-
quency bands are observed.
Usually, the access points
communicate this parame
-
ter. In this case, the radio mo
-
dem takes this parameter from the AP.
Enable sleep mode
: This allows the energy consumption of the HG G
76343/4/5 to
be reduced to a limited extent. Activating this function only makes sense for appli
-
cations that have to work as energy-efficiently as possible.
802.11bg bitrate setting:
This can be used to control the use of the possible transmit
bit rates in the 2.4GHz band.
802.11
b
only -> 1 + 2 + 5.5 + 11 MBit
802.11
g
only -> 6 + 9 + 12 + 18 + 24 + 36 + 48 +54 MBit
The other settings specify the minimum bit rates.
802.11a bitrate setting:
This controls the use of the minimum transmission bit rates
in the 5 GHz band.
Power selection
: With this parameter the transmitting power of the radio card in the
radio modem can be reduced if necessary. This can be useful if only short distances
to the APs have to be bridged and many other participants work in the frequency
band.
Antenna selection
: If only one antenna connection of the HG G
76343/4/5 is
equipped with an antenna, this can be set here. However, you can leave the Ant 1 +
Ant 2 setting as it is, even if only one antenna is connected.
If this function is active, the data exchange via WLAN may be temporarily delayed.
