Accessing the Reset Button
The Reset button is located on the right side panel. To access it, remove the screw that covers the button.
Use a paper clip or similar tool to push the button in between 1 and 5 seconds to reboot the device, or for 5
seconds or more to return the device to the factory default settings. When you are done, replace the cover
screw firmly to cover the access point and restore the device to its weatherproof state.
Using the Antenna Alignment Buzzer
The AP1130 has an audible buzzer signal to help you align antennas for the best coverage. By default, the
buzzer is enabled and will beep with changing frequency based on the signal strengths that are determined
during the alignment process. The better the signal strength, the more frequent the beeps.
You can enable, configure, and disable the buzzer using the following CLI command through a Console
connection to the device.
CLI Syntax: exec antenna-alignment interface <wifix> peer <mac_addr> [count [numbers]]
[interval [numbers]] [text-size [numbers]] [beep [static]|[adaptive]|[disable]]
• beep: Set the antenna buzzer mode, which the device uses to indicate the quality of antenna alignment
by increasing the frequency of audible beeps as the signal strength improves. The default is adaptive.
• static: Set the antenna buzzer to beep when the signal strength falls between 0 and 80 dB.
• adaptive: Set the antenna buzzer to beep based on the signal strengths that are determined during the
alignment process.
• disable: Disable the antenna buzzer.
AP1130 LEDs
The AP1130 has a Status LED on the bottom of the unit, and a Signal Strength LED and three connectivity LEDs
on the right panel. The LED colors and what they indicate are described below.
Status LED
• Dark: no power to the device.
• Amber (steady): the device has not made a CAPWAP connection.
• Amber (flashing): the device is undergoing a firmware upgrade.
• White: the device is operating properly.
Signal Strength LED:
• Dark: no signal or not in use.
• Amber: the signal is weak (no neighbor has been found with a signal strength greater than -60 dBm).
