if fitted, using the Ethernet interface to transfer data over a local
area or wireless network.
1.1.2 Wireless networking
The CD24 can be fitted with an optional 802.11b (“Wi-Fi”) wireless
interface in addition to the Ethernet port. This option allows data flow
to be established from autonomous installations with a minimum of
setting up.
For temporary deployments, instruments and digitisers can be buried
in shallow pits with only the antenna above ground. You can then
contact to each station from a wireless-enabled PC running Scream!
without disturbing the instrument, including monitoring real-time
data and configuring the digitiser.
More permanent arrays also benefit from wireless technology,
particularly in remote areas or where the terrain makes long cable runs
impractical.
For example, stations might be installed with high-gain antennae
directed towards a visible natural feature which is easier to access.
