Icon Operating System Instruction
Windows® 7 Professional
Windows® Embedded Standard
Windows® XP Professional
For Microsoft Windows 7 and Windows Embedded Standard 7:
It is necessary to run Laird Connection Manager (LCM) as an administrator because LCM must be able to access
and make changes to the Windows registry.
Rather than selecting to run as an administrator each time, right click on the Laird Connection Manager icon and
select
Properties . Tap the Compatibility tab and check Run this program as an administrator . This modification
only affects the current user unless Change settings for all users is tapped before changing the privilege level.
It is important that all dates are correct on the Marathon and host computers when using any type of certificate. Cer-
tificates are date sensitive and if the date is not correct authentication will fail.
When using the 802.11a radio, the U-NII 1 band is the preferred band for indoor operation. For regulatory domains
in which the U-NII 3 band is allowed, the following channels are supported: 149, 153, 157 and 161. The AP must be
configured accordingly.
