APPENDIX A

WLAN Transmission

For a WLAN transmission, set the Sync media to WLAN. It is necessary that the IT Manager of your facility

configure the wireless access point(s) and E-Scribe workstation. It is also required that your IT Manager provide the

device’s WLAN configuration values. The device can be configured for Dynamic Host Communication Protocol

(DHCP) or static IP. Wireless security encryption options include WEP, WPA, WPA2, LEAP, and PEAP.

NOTE: Environmental conditions may affect the reliability of WLAN transmissions.

NOTE: The location for antenna for GPRS and WLAN are interchangeable.

If DHCP is set to NO, your wireless access point will have a static network setting and the following parameters

must be configured in the device:

IP Address

Default Gateway

Sub Net Mask

If DHCP is set to YES, your wireless access point will have an automatic network setting and IP address; default

gateway and sub net mask do not need to be configured. In either DHCP setting, the following wireless network

parameters must be provided by your IT Manager:

Host IP

Port Number

SSID

Channel Number

NOTE: Addresses are always entered as 4 sets of 3 digits; therefore, an address of 192.168.0.7 must be

entered on the device as 192.168.000.007.

NOTE: All parameters related to network connection must be entered under the direction of the IT

Manager of the facility where the device is installed. See also Appendix A for more information on device

connectivity settings.

NOTE: Network settings for LAN (first page of settings) and those for WLAN or GPRS (second page of

settings) are independent from each other.

If WEP security is disabled on your access point, then set security (WEP) to NO. If WEP security is enabled on

your access point, the following wireless network parameters must be configured in the device by the IT Manager:

Security: WEP

WEP Key

WEP Key ID

NOTE: The range for the WEP key is 0-3. If the range on your access point is 1-4, then 0 at the device

maps to 1 on the access point; 1 maps to 2 on the access point, etc.

If your wireless security environment is WPA or WPA2 (Wi-fi Protected Access) then you will need to enter:

Security: WPA-PSK or WPA2-PSK

Passphrase:

NOTE: The passphrase length is limited to 64 characters.
