The PacketWave AIM
This chapter provides instructions for using the Aperto Installation Manager (AIM) utility.
The AIM can be used to perform any of the following functions:
• Initially configure the PacketWave 200 and optimize antenna alignment.
• Re-align the antenna of a previously-installed PacketWave 200.
• View wireless link status.
• Perform ping and throughput tests of the wireless link between the PacketWave
200 and the base station.
• Pre-provision (preconfigure) a PacketWave 200 for later installation using the
audio auto-alignment procedure.
Installing the AIM Software on the PC
To load the Aperto Installation Manager (AIM) software onto the computer to be used in
the procedures described in this chapter:
1. Obtain the PacketWave CD distributed with your PacketWave Series 200 equip-
ment, which includes the PacketWave Aperto Installation Manager (AIM) software
plus Java software from SUN Microsystems.
2. If the Java Runtime Environment is not present on the PC, install it from the
PacketWave CD (bsu/Software/Application/Support directory) or the java.sun.com
web site.
3. Install the Aperto Installation Manager (AIM) software by running the file
setup.exe
from the /Software/Application/ApertoInstallationManager/<OS> directory of the
PacketWave CD (where <OS> is the operating system being used, such as win32).
At the end of this installation, an AIM icon will be placed on the Windows desktop.
