Overview
WAPN001Mini-PCI Module is designed to provide wireless communication for all wireless device based
systems. It communicates via the standard 802.11a/b/g/n protocols. The WAPN001 uses the AR9220 wireless
chipset from Atheros. This module is connected to the PCI bus through a Mini-PCI connector and special
circuitry to allow for compatibility with either 3.3V or 5V PCI signaling.
.

Hardware Installation
The WAPN001 can be installed into all Moxa wireless system board series. It can be located
below the CPU.
Step for Installation
1. Attach the WLAN antenna to connector J1.
2. If using 2nd WLAN antenna, attach it to connector J2.
3. Install the WAPN001 miniPCI card on the system board. Apply pressure to both bus
connectors and gently press the board onto the stack. The board should slide into the matching
bus connectors. Do not attempt to force the board, as this can lead to bent/broken pins.
4. Screw on the WAPN001 miniPCI card.
5. If any power boards are to be stacked above the WAPN001, install them.
6. Screw on the all the necessary chassis.
Software Installation
After physically installing the WAPN001, your operating system must be configured to recognize
the new system board.
Step for Installation
1. Apply power to the system board.
2. Connect system board and PC with Ethernet cable.
3. Open a browser and type: 192.168.127.253 to open the system login webpage.
4. Login the webpage with default password: root in order to verify that all of the hardware is
install properly.

Federal Communication Commission Interference
Statement
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part
15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a
residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does
cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment
off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one of the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
FCC Caution:
To assure continued compliance, (example - use only shielded interface cables when connecting to computer or
peripheral devices) any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance
could void the user's authority to operate this equipment.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
This module is restricted to mobile configuration. To comply with FCC RF exposure compliance requirements,
the antenna used for this transmitter must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20 cm from all
persons and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. This
transmitter module must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter
CAUTION:
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the grantee of this device could void the user's
authority to operate the equipment.
This device is operation in 5.15 – 5.25GHz frequency range, then restricted in indoor use only.
End Product Labeling
This transmitter module is authorized only for use in device where the antenna may be installed such that 20cm
may be maintained between the antenna and users. The final end product must be labeled in a visible area with
the following: "Contains FCC ID: SLE-WAPN001 ”
