IRTrans Manual Hardware/Setup WiFi Version 1.01

Initial Configuration
For the initial configuration the IRTrans WiFi has to be connected via USB. The
configuration can be done using the IRTrans GUI Client or the IRConfig Tool. The IRConfig
Tool is available for Windows, LINUX and the Mac (OS/X).
Please note:
The IPAssign Tool for the IRTrans Ethernet devices cannot be used for the
WiFi devices. The initial configuration can only be done via USB as described here.
1.
Installation Windows:
Install the Windows SW package that can be found on the
IRTrans CD or on our Website (Setup.exe). The setup package also includes the
USB Driver. During the installation select “IRTrans WiFi“ as the installed device.
2.
Installation Mac:
Install the IRConfig Tool and the USB driver. Both can be found
in the “Mac” folder of the CD or on our website. The IRConfig tool needs JRE
(Java Runtime environment) version >= 1.6.
3.
Installation LINUX:
The LINUX SW can also be found on the IRTrans CD and on
our website. It needs a JRE version >= 1.6.
4. Connect the IRTrans WiFi to a suitable power supply (8-16V DC / >= 300mA) and
with the supplied USB Cable to the computer. Now the USB Driver will be loaded
automatically.
Important
: The IRTrans WiFi needs a power supply – it is not powered via USB.
5. Now the IRConfig program can be started via the Windows Menu. On the Mac it
will be installed under “Programs”. On LINUX start irconfig.sh.
6.
Important: During the configuration on other SW shall connect to the
IRTrans device via USB as the USB port can only be opened by one program
at a time.
7. On Windows the configuration can also be done by starting “IRTransServer USB“.
The configuration can then be started using “Device Status” via Right click from
the IR Menu (next to the clock). Both configuration methods have the same result.
8. In the configuration dialog (WLAN Tab) the WLAN parameters can now be
entered. In any case the SSID and WLAN Preshared key are needed. All other
settings can usually be left on their default values.
9. Due to security reasons we strongly suggest to use
only
WPA2 encryption on the
access point.
10. There are some minor restrictions regarding the WLAN parameters:
- WLAN Channel 14 is currently not supported
- The max. length for the WLAN Preshared key is 31 characters. That has no
implication on security – every key with a length of at least 15 characters assures
the full WPA2 security.
