Wireless Settings Page Elements (Cont.)
IP Settings: Sets the IP communication values for the touch panel and contains:
DHCP/STATIC Sets the panel to either DHCP or Static communication modes.
• DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) assigns IP Addresses to client
stations logging onto a TCP/IP network from a DHCP server.
• Static IP is a permanent IP Address that is assigned to a node in a TCP/IP
network.
Note: If DHCP is selected, the following fields become read-only: IP Address,
Subnet Mask, Gateway, Primary DNS, Secondary DNS, and Domain.
IP Address Sets the secondary IP Address assigned to the panel.
Subnet Mask Sets a subnetwork address to the panel.
• Subnetwork mask is the technique used by the IP protocol to filter messages
into a particular network segment (subnet).
Gateway Sets a gateway value to the panel.
• Gateway is a computer that either performs protocol conversion between
different types of networks/applications or acts as a go-between for two or
more networks that use the same protocols.
Host Name Sets the host name of the panel.
• PRIMARY DNS sets the address of the primary DNS server being used by the
Modero panel for host name lookups.
- DNS (Domain Name System) is software that lets users locate computers
on a local network or the Internet (TCP/IP network) by host and domain. The
DNS server maintains a database of host names for its’ domain and their
corresponding IP Addresses.
• SECONDARY DNS sets the secondary DNS value to the panel.
Primary DNS Sets the address of the primary DNS server used by the panel for host name
lookups.
Secondary DNS Sets the secondary DNS value to the Modero panel.
Domain Sets the unique name on the Internet to the panel for DNS look-up.
MAC Address This value is factory set by the manufacturer of the wireless Ethernet card.
Access Point MAC
Address: This value is factory set by the manufacturer of the Wireless Access Point
(WAP).
• Site Survey button: Clicking this button launches a page which allows a user
to "sniff-out" all transmitting Wireless Access Points within the detection
range of the internal NXA-WC80211GCF (this feature is not available with the
802.11b Wi-Fi card). The Site Survey page contains categories such as:
- Network Name (SSID) - Wireless Access Point names
- Channel (RF) - Channel currently being used by the WAP
(Wireless Access Point)
- Security Type - security protocol enabled on the WAP
(if detectable - such as WEP, OPEN and UNKNOWN)
- Signal Strength - None, Poor, Fair, Good, Very Good, and Excellent
- MAC Address - Unique identification of the transmitting Access Point
• Refer to the Using the Site Survey tool section on page 59 for more detailed
information on the SIte Survey page.
• When communicating with a WAP200G enter the MAC Address (BSSID) of
the target WAP as the Access Point MAC Address. Refer to the WAP200G
Instruction Manual for more detailed information on the interaction between
these two product lines.
