10.3. Channel
Set a channel Wavit11 uses.
Channel setting will be required in case of the following
operational mode.
Ad-Hoc mode
Both mode
AP mode
Wireless Bridge mode
To configure several wireless LAN groups within a same area, a
unique channel should be set per each group, and it is necessary
to set each channel at the place 5 channels apart in order to avoid
the interference between the wireless LANs. In the case 3 groups
of the wireless LAN are configured in the close
area, it will be
necessary to make the setting at 1CH, 6CH and 11CH to the
respective group.

CONFIDENTIAL
10.4. Data Rate
There are 5 choices: 1Mbps, 2Mbps, 5.5Mbps, 11Mbps and the automatic
setting.
When the automatic setting is selected, Wavit11
makes communication in the fastest possible rate, and
this depends on the equipment at the other end. If the
comm
unication environment is degraded and making
communication in the present data rate becomes
impractical, the data rate will be lowered and the
wireless LAN communication will continue.
Mitsumi Electric Co., Ltd. Wavit11 User's Manual
88/108
CONFIDENTIAL
10.5. Roaming
This is a way to set whether the Wavit11does a roaming or not.
What is Roaming?
This function can be activated in an environment
where
multiple Access Points exist. If the
wireless LAN under
communication with a certain Access Point moves and
fails
in receiving the radio wave, the roaming function will enable
Wavit11 to change the destination to the ot
her nearby Access
Point. If Wavit11 switches the Access Point successfully, it
can send and receive
the wireless LAN data without
interruption, and that it can access the network without any
interruption.
Setting up of Roaming function will be possible only if the
operational mode is as follows:
Infrastructure mode
AP mode

CONFIDENTIAL
10.6. Hidden Node Compensation
Depended on the placement of multiple wireless LANs, there is a case that the
wireless LAN communication disturbance caused by other wireless LANs takes
place and the data rate may be fallen off. If the Hidden Node Compensation is
set to Enable, the Wavit11 seizes the wireless LAN communication line prior to
the actual data transmission, so it can mitigate the mutual disturbance of
wireless LAN communication and the degradation of data rate.
What is Hidden Node?
In the wireless LAN system, many wireless LAN
s
communicate each other on the same frequency.
Normally every
wireless LAN senses whether
or not another wireless LAN has
already started the wireless LAN communication so as
not to
disturb the already started wireless LAN communication.
However, some wireless LANs disturb
the already started
wireless LAN communication transmitting the data without
sensing the existence of another wireless LAN communication.
Such a kind of wi
reless LAN that may disturb the other wireless
LAN communication is called Hidden Node.

10.7. Details
Click the “Details” button to enable the Wavit11 detailed setting.
Normally you do not need to change these items.
Check each item of this manual, when the setting
should be
modified.
Mitsumi Electric Co., Ltd. Wavit11 User's Manual
91/108
CONFIDENTIAL
10.8. RTS Threshold
In the case that the Hidden node compensation is set to Enable, setup of RTS
threshold will be possible.
The Wavit11 seizes the wireless LAN communication line prior to actual data
transmission if the data length is greater than RTS Threshold. When the Hidden
node compensation is set to Enable, the initial value is 0, therefore, the Wavit11
seizes the wireless LAN communication line prior to every length of actual data
transmission.
The wireless LAN performance will
improve when this
RTS Threshold is enlarged, in the case that
Hidden node
disturbance is not so violent.
Check the performance by
modifying the RTS threshold, when
you modify the value
from the initial value, because the optimal RTS
threshold
depends on the placement and application of wireless LAN.
Mitsumi Electric Co., Ltd. Wavit11 User's Manual
92/108
CONFIDENTIAL
10.9. Fragmentation Threshold
In the case that the transmitted data do not correctly reach the wireless LAN
on the partner side, the Wavit11 will retransmit the data predefined times. This
retransmission occurs frequently by a communication error under poor
communication condition and the performance of the wireless LAN network
sometimes deteriorates.
There is a way to mitigate the performance deterioration, that is the
retransmission of divided frame. Thus, the wireless LAN frame should be
divided into small pieces, and here is a way to set the size of divided frame.
All fra
mes are sent without any data frame division in
default setting.
Mitsumi Electric Co., Ltd. Wavit11 User's Manual
93/108
CONFIDENTIAL
10.10. Short Retry Limit
In the case that the transmitted data do not correctly reach the wireless LAN
on the partner side, the Wavit11 will retransmit the data predefined times and the
number of retransmission times is set here. In Short Retry Limit, the number of
retransmission is set, for the data frame whose length is below RTS threshold.
If a big value is set needlessly, the Wavit11 may
try to
retransmit
data many times to the wireless LAN at which the
radio wave cannot get, so t
he performance of the whole
wireless LAN can be deteriorated. Closely examine the
degree
of performance required by the application,
if you modify the
setting.

10.11. Long Retry Limit
In the case that the transmitted data do not correctly reach the wireless LAN
on the partner side, the Wavit11 will retransmit the data predefined times and the
number of retransmission times is set here. In Long Retry Limit, the number of
retransmission is set, for the data frame whose length is above RTS threshold.
If a big value is set needlessly, the Wavit11 may
try to
retransmit
data many times to the wireless LAN at which the

degree of performance required by the application,
if you
modify the setting.

10.12. Beacon Interval
The Wavit11 in AP mode periodically transmits special frame called Beacon
to information about current setting to another Wavit11 that tries to join the
wireless LAN network. Here, is a way to set the Beacon interval.
This item can be set
only if the operational mode is AP
mode.

10.17. Encryption Key
It is the Encryption key for the encryption of data transmission. Set the same
encryption key to each Wavit11.
There are two ways to set encryption key:
- You set some string and the Wavit11 automatically generate
encryption key from string.
- You set the encryption key directly.

10.18. Default Key
This is one of the encryption keys Wavit11 use for data transmission.
You can set this item if the Encryption Mode is either
“Original” or “40bit WEP”.
When the different Default Key is set to each Wavit11,
the
security against the illegal wiretapping is strengthened.
