1.3 Installing the Antennas
Step 1: With the unit powered off, attach the dipole antenna to the antenna
connector as shown in Figure 1.3.
NOTE: Do not over-tighten; finger tight is sufficient. Position the antenna
vertically for best omni-directional signal reception.
Figure 1.3.
Before installing your WLAN system, we recommend that you test the
Access Point using the dipole antenna included in your package. Once
testing is completed, install your Access Point for use with the appropriate
antenna for your application.

1.4 Installing the Console Port Cable
Step 2: Attach the Console Port cable to the Serial Port. Attach the other
cable end to the Serial Port on a PC running a terminal emulation program,
and set the terminal to 115200 Baud, No-Parity, 8 data bits, 1 Stop bit, and
ANSI compatible.
NOTE: This connection is required for setting up initial configuration
information.
After configuration is completed, this cable may be removed until additional
configuration is required via the Serial Port.
1.5 Connecting the power supply and Ethernet
cable
Step 3 Plug the female end of the power cord into the Inline Power Injector,
and then plug the male end of the power cord into a power outlet or power
strip. The Power LED on the front of the Inline Power Injector will light up.
Step 4 Run the cross over Ethernet cable (included in your package) from
Data Input Port (on the front of the Inline Power Injector) to the Ethernet Port
on the PC we mentioned above.
NOTE: This connection is required for setting up initial configuration
information. After configuration is completed, this cable will be removed, and
then you should run an Ethernet cable from Data Input Port (on the front of
the Inline Power Injector) to the LAN connection (such as a hub or
concentrator).
Step 5 Plug the MIL-C-5015 style Ethernet connector into the Special
Ethernet port on the back of the access point.
Step 6 Plug the RJ-45 Ethernet connector (the other end of the Special
Ethernet cable) into the Power & Data Output Port on the front of the Inline
Power Injector. When the Access Point receives power over the Ethernet
cable, the Access Point will start its boot sequence and the Active LED on
the front of the Inline Power Injector will light up.

1.6 Outdoor Installation
Outdoor Access Point device can be mounted on the side of a building
or mounted to an mast as shown in following:
A wall (side) mount allows for mounting the Outdoor AP on the side of
a building. This will provide a convenient mounting location when the
roof overhang is not excessive and/or the location is high enough to
provide a clear line of sight.
Grounding
A safety grounding system is necessary to protect your outdoor
installation from lightning strikes and the build-up of static electricity.
So direct grounding of the antenna mast, Outdoor AP and
Surge Arrester is very important. And so mounting the Outdoor AP on
the antenna mast, you have to connect the Outdoor AP to the same
grounding system with the AC wall outlet.
The grounding system must comply with the National Electrical Code
and safety standards that apply in your country. Always check with a
qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether your outdoor
installation is properly grounded.

Chapter 4. Telnet Configuration
The AP is designed to operate as shipped from the factory without any
special set-up. However, it has many options and parameters that can be
changed if users have special requirements. Most of the management
functions can be accessed using TCP/IP protocol, it also configured by
Telnet/Console.
The operator can have to configure the AP through using a Telnet
session on a wired LAN attached computer. To use the Telnet session,
you can simply open a Telnet window using the IP address that has
been assigned to the AP.
1. Click Start button, select Run to open the Run dialog box. Enter telnet
192.168.2. 1(default terminal type of Telnet is VT100, default IP address
of the AP is 192.168.2.1). Then click OK as shown in Figure 4-1.
Figure 4-1.
40
2. In the Telnet window, enter the User Name and User Password as
shown in Figure 4-2 (default User Name and User Password is user1
and test) to see the main screen of Telnet user interface as shown in
Figure 4-3.
