Client Manager. This Wizard automates many of the steps required to configure your
network topology and Ethernet port settings.
Serial Configuration Wizard – Although there is a Wizard for Serial configuration, the
EtherAnt does not use a serial interface. All screens for Serial settings should be ignored
since they are not applicable. The Client Manager grays this option out.

detail in Section 4.1 - Using Wireless Link Wizard.

NOTE: Any updated configuration settings will be retained even when the EtherAnt II is
powered off. You can then attach the EtherAnt II unit to another device using the parameters
you have already set. That device will not need to have the Client Manager installed because the
settings are stored in non-volatile memory of the EtherAnt II.
