WLAN Installation Instructions
Option PN 112986
Note
Before installing this option, contact the IT administrator to obtain network communication information, such
as SSID and security parameters, and have an RS-232 communications cable to run between the PC and the
WLAN option card during initial wireless network setup of the option card.
The 420 WLAN option card offers a way to communicate with one or both of the serial ports in a 420 indicator
(including the CLS-420 Cargo Lift Scale) through a Wireless Local Area Network, or WLAN.
The option uses a Lantronix ®1 MatchPort ®2 WLAN device server to handle all of the serial to WLAN protocol
requirements. The MatchPort module can be configured using a terminal program, such as Hyperterminal ®3 , via an
RS-232 connection. Additionally, once connected to the network, its configuration can be accessed and modified
through a web browser, such as Internet Explorer
®4 , or through the Lantronix provided DeviceInstaller ™ 5 PC
program.
In addition to providing a WLAN interface, this card is also capable of providing a wired Ethernet interface via an
RJ-45 connection found on the board.
