A. RangeLAN2 Utilities
The RangeLAN2 Site Survey & Configuration
Tool and RL2SETUP
There are two different tools provided with the RangeLAN2 7420
PC Card for diagnostics, configuration, and site survey purposes.
The RangeLAN2 Site Survey & Configuration Tool runs in
Windows 95, 98, 2000, and NT, and the RL2SETUP program
runs in DOS.
The RL2SETUP program will only load if other DOS drivers are
NOT already loaded in memory. In Windows 95/98 and 2000,
the RangeLAN2 Site Survey & Configuration Tool requires that
the driver and RangeLAN2 Client protocol (RL2API) already be
installed before it will function. In Windows NT, the tool requires
the driver be installed before it will function.
Other than these requirements, these two tools are nearly identical,
although the Site Survey & Configuration Tool offers some
additional features. Screen shots in this appendix are of the
Windows tool but apply to the DOS tool unless otherwise noted.
Note:
The Windows Site Survey & Configuration Tool does
not run in Windows 3.x.
