Overview
WAPA003 Mini-PCI Module is designed to provide wireless communication for all wireless
device based systems. It communicates via the standard 802.11b/g protocols. The WAPA003
uses the AR5414 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.
.
Features
All-CMOS single chip for IEEE 802.11b/g compatible WLANs
No external VCOs or SAW filters needed
Baseband in-phase (I) and quadrature (Q) signals, converts them to the desired frequency,
and drives the RF signal off-chip
Integrated low-noise amplifier (LNA)
External PA and/or LNA can be used for special applications
Advanced wideband receiver with best path sequencer for better range and multipath resistance
than conventional equalizer-based designs
Extended tuning range (2.300-2.500) for worldwide use
High speed UART with DMA supports data rates up to 1 Mbps

Hardware Installation
The WAPA003 can be installed into all Moxa wireless system board series. It can be located
below the CPU.
Step
for
Installation
1. Attach the Main WLAN antenna to connector J1.
2. If using an Auxiliary WLAN antenna, attach it to connector J2.
3. Install the WAPA 003 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 WAPA003 miniPCI card.
5. If any power boards are to be stacked above the WAPA003, install them.
6. Screw on the all the necessary chassis.
Software Installation
After physically installing the WAPA003, 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.

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.
