WI-FI SETUP

WARNING

WiFi (802.11g) operates in the

S-Band 2.4 GHz.

If your MiniBox-4 is equipped

with both WiFi and an S, S2,

S3 Band transmitter, the

transmitter will cause the WiFi

system to be intermittent or

inoperable. Use either WiFi or S,

S2, S3 Band transmitter, but not

both at the same time.

WiFi may also suffer from

interference if used in close

proximity to microwave ovens

and cordless phones.

To setup your Wi-Fi option, complete the following steps:

1. Remove the plastic door from the front of the camera to expose the

PCMCIA slot.

2. The 802.11 Wi-Fi card is shipped in the Accessory Bag--attached

with Kapton tape to the PCMCIA Adapter. Push this assembly gently

but ﬁrmly into the slot on the front of the camera as shown. The gold

connector must be on the left.

3. Access the Wi-Fi signal with a Wi-Fi-equipped computer via a web

browser (see page 20).

4. To remove the card and adapter assembly, press the eject button to

the right of the PCMCIA slot.

Camera Latency: In applications where continuous or frequent camera

control commands are sent or if controlling the camera using two sources

(RF TX & WiFi) at the same time, latency may build due to the buffering and

processing of these commands. This latency will be observed as the camera

being slow or non-responsive to commands. To minimize this effect, DTC

recommends controlling the camera with one source at a time and lowering

the frame-rate to 5 fps for optimum viewing and operation.
