In addition, the network view gives two different
approaches to the wireless LAN configuration
as follows:
By tapping on the ‘Add New …’ list item
in the network view
By tapping on the network name shown
in the list
Note
that as you specify wireless networking
parameters such as authentication and
encryption to join your Nordic ID Morphic to the
desired service set (SSID) you make a
‘
preferred network
’ of that SSID.
Other display items and controls on the Wireless Information tab
Status
field tells connection state of the wireless LAN adapter.
Signal
field expresses the signal strength/quality the WLAN adapter sees from the other end of the
established wireless link.
The checked ‘
check box’
enables (unchecked disables) the dialog box to appear on the screen,
for example, after the warm-boot, provided that you have not specified the preferred network.
However, the above-mentioned does not happen when the device awake from a sleep state. In
that case, the stress is placed on the word ‘new’, that is, only if a new SSID is found out by
sweeping from channel to channel the WZC shows up the dialog box as long as there is not the
preferred network(s) assigned to the WLAN interface. Note that the WZC retains the found SSID
information over the sleep/awakening cycle. On the other hand, if the device has a working
wireless link, the appearance of the new SSID does not get the Wireless Information tab to pop up
on the screen.
Despite the fact that assigning preferred network(s) to the WLAN interface has an influence on the
pop-up feature of the Network Status Monitor dialog box, the assigned, preferred network does not
hinder the Wireless Information tab from popping up on the screen. If the check box is checked,
and for some reason the WZC is unable to connect to the preferred SSID(s), the dialog box with
the Wireless Information tab appears on the display after the WZC has made an unsuccessful
attempt to associate with the preferred network(s).
Pressing ‘
Connect’
button forces the attachment to the selected SSID in the network list.
