Checking the Status of Wireless Adapters and
Cradles
After you have added wireless adapters or cradles automatically or
manually, all of the adapters or cradles you added appear in the
TI-Nspire™ Network Manager window. If the wireless adapter or cradle is
charged and attached to a TI-Nspire™ handheld that is powered on,
TI-Nspire™ Network Manager shows the status as connected. It may take
up to 30 seconds to recognize the wireless client and show its status as
connected. The status window also displays the battery status and signal
strength.
If the cradle is not charged, or the adapter or cradle is not connected to a
TI-Nspire™ handheld that is powered on, TI-Nspire™ Network Manager
displays the status as disconnected. TI-Nspire™ Network Manager
remembers the adapter and cradle IDs you added, and the next time you
turn on the TI-Nspire™ handheld that is connected to the adapter or
cradle, TI-Nspire™ Network Manager recognizes it.
Note: To refresh the TI-Nspire™ Network Manager window, click
View > Refresh or click .
Identifying Selected Cradles
At times you may have a problem with one or two TI-Nspire™
Navigator™ Cradles in your network that aren’t responding. When you
look at the list of cradles in the TI-Nspire™ Network Manager window,
you can identify which ones are not responding by the Status message,
and you can see the serial numbers.
You could match the serial numbers in the window with the ones printed
on the back of each wireless cradle. However, TI-Nspire™ Network
Manager gives you an easier way to physically locate them. You can use
the
Identify selected command to quickly tell which cradles are working
properly in your classroom.
