Using the Radio Manager
5000 Mobile Terminal Product Guide (5000-REV2.21)
Chapter 5-35
Bit Rate
One of three possible rates: 14.4 Kbps, 9600 bps, or 7200 bps. Only one can be
selected.
The first four parameters are each entered via a numeric keyboard which pops up when the
corresponding menu item is selected. The fifth parameter is one item selected from the three
corresponding menu items.
These parameters are only slightly different for the
WaveNet Wireless LAN 900 MHz Spread
Spectrum
systems:
Channel
The first radio channel number used when the 5000 initializates (default = 1).
ChanSelect
The channels and which the 5000 can search when in cellular operation (default =
1, non-cellular mode). Since any channel number is a single digit, the channel
numbers can be entered with no spaces or commas. For example, 234
represents channel numbers 2, 3, and 4. The order of entry is the search order used
by the 3000 when a cellular search is performed.
NodeAddress
A unique network node address number (1 - 65555) for the 5000.
In the WaveNet Wireless LAN Spread Spectrum systems, the Header and Bit Rate parameters are not
used, as these configurations are pre-set.
There are few parameters necessary for
WaveNet Wireless LAN
2.4 GHz (Aironet) Spread
Spectrum
systems. These parameters are available only on the Command Line Interface, accessible on
the Console Port of the terminal:
Command *

Value
Power Save Mode
> air CP <value>
0 = CAM (default)
1 = PSP
2 = Fast PSP
Radio SSID
> air CS <value>
Text Name (default = tsunami)
Identification Name
> air CN <value>
Text Name (default = none)

?
“> air P” is used to save any changed parameter settings.
?
The SSID in the Aironet Access Point configuration must match the SSID configured in
the WaveNet Terminal. If this condition is not met, then the WaveNet terminal will not
“associate” with the Aironet Access Point and no radio data communications will result.
?
If no SSID (SSID of “”) is set in the WaveNet Terminal, then it will freely associate with
any Aironet Access Point. However, this may not be desirable in all installations.
