The settings contain the following parameters: • IP address • Network name • Community string (password) • Lock (remote management on/off) First install Pconfig from the diskette that is shipped with the Pelican. 3.1 Installation of configuration software To install the PConfig program, insert disk 1 into your local disk drive and run the PConfig setup.exe. The set-up wizard will guide you through the installation process. Figure 3.1 Select the directory you want to install PConfig in. Start the PConfig program after completion of the installation. User Manual Pelican 1100 WLAN Hub Page 11 of 11 No Wires Needed 3.2 Give the Pelican an IP-address The following settings should be done: • IP address • Network name • Community string (password) • Lock (remote management on/off) Therefore you should connect the Pelican directly to a computer were Pconfig is running on. Either use a cross cable, or a standard hub to accomplish this. Note: You should not attach the Pelican to the same wired backbone were the Access Points are connected to. This will result in a not-ending loop, and can cause network problems. After starting Pconfig the following screen will appear. Page 12 of 12 Pelican 1100 WLAN Hub User Manual No Wires Needed Select ‘Set a fixed IP address’. Then enter the MAC address and the IP address manually. The MAC Address can be found at the backside of the Pelican. Press Apply. You are now enabled to fill in the System name, System Location and Contact Info. These fields are not mandatory; the information is useful when using several Pelicans in a more complex environment. Place your cursor behind the field you wish to change.

If all goes well, the rightmost LED (power) is green and the leftmost (WLAN) and middle (wired network) LEDs flash whenever there is traffic on the respective networks which is at least ten times per second for the wireless LAN because of so-called ‘beacons’. The WLAN Hub automatically selects the medium attached. When no devices are detected, the network LED will turn red. When the supplied power is too low or unstable the power LED will turn red. The power LED will also turn red when the firmware of the Pelican WLAN Hub has a fault condition. Installation completed.
