EtherWave - WMR

6.0 Configuration

6.1.2 Welcome Window

The Welcome window displays the specific EtherWave-WMR’ name
(entered as the Radio Description in the System Configuration
menu). This name quickly confirms the ’identity’ of the unit being
perused and appears in all menu windows.

Image 6C: Welcome Window

Also displayed is various ‘version’ information:

Hardware Version - applicable to the motherboard of
the EtherWave-WMR

Software Version - this software resides on the
motherboard and is also referred to as the unit’s
’firmware’

FPGA Version - Field Programmable Gate Array -
resides on the motherboard and relates to the interface
between the motherboard and radio module
