Document released by COM/RD/SZ 2003/05/6 User manual for PCBAG-02,03,04,05 PC CARD Description Rev Page 1.0 Before you can start using Configuration Profiles, you have to add a Configuration Profile for each wireless network environment that you want to participate in with your (mobile) Wireless Client Station. If you plan to use your Wireless Client Station in multiple networking environments that require different configuration settings, you can define dedicated profiles for each environment. For example you can create a Configuration Profile for: • your office head quarters • a branch-office • your home or SOHO network After creating configuration profiles, you can easily switch your station from one wireless network to another by selecting one of the profiles. Add a profile • Press Add button, and input the profile name, select the network type. • Press Next to input the network name The content of this document is to be treated as strictly confidential and is not to be disclosed, reproduced or used, except as authorized i n writing by Universal Scientific Industrial Co. ,Ltd.

Rev Page 1.0 You can add up different profiles, which will be stored in alphabetical order. To view a profile, use the Edit button. Set Profile Properties • Assign a name to your wireless profile. • Select the Network Type to identify the type of wireless connection for this profile. Peer-to-Peer Group Base Station Connection Act as Base Station Network Type To connect a wireless computer to a network, you will need to identify how you wish to establish the connection. • Peer-to-Peer Group • To connect to a Base Station Network select the type of Base Station: Base Station Connection Act as Base Station Identify Network Use this screen to identify the Network Name of the wireless network to which you wish to connect your computer. • When connecting to a Base Station, consult the LAN Administrator of the network for the correct value, or use the Scan button to retrieve a list of open wireless networks. • When connecting to a Peer-to-Peer Group, consult one of the workgroup participants for the correct value.

The value ANY will allow your computer to connect to the first open Base Station network that it can find. In environments with third-party wireless products, this parameter is also referred to as ESSID. Security Settings Use this screen to: • Enable or disable wireless data Network Name. • Enter the encryption key that applies in your network. You can enter key values in either Alphanumeric Value or Hexadecimal Value. The encryption key value is case-sensitive. Consult your LAN Administrator for the correct value. Card Power Management Use this screen to: • Enable Power Management for low power consumption and wireless performance. • Disable Power Management for default power consumption and high wireless performance (default). Power Management is only supported in Base Station networks. TCP/IP Behavior Use this screen to control the TCP/IP protocol behavior when switching from one wireless profile to another. Enable this option when your profiles connect to networks with a different TCP/IP Subnet. For example your home network and a corporate network. As most DHCP servers assign an IP Address lease for 24 hours, your network connection might not work due to an IP Address mismatch when moving between two different network spaces. Enabling this option will ensure your IP Address will be renewed every time you select this profile.

The absence of activity on the Wireless Network Interface might be related to the fact that: • You moved out of Wireless Range of the Base Station(s) that could provide access to the selected network. • There are no Wireless Client Stations in the Wireless Range of your computer to participate in the selected Peer-to-Peer Group. • The Base Station(s) that could provide access to the selected network has (have) a problem (e.g. power is off). Power LED on, Link LED flickering This LED status indicates normal operation: • The Wireless Client Adapter is powered on • The Link LED indicates activity on the wireless network. If the radio of your PCBAG PC Card seems to communicate with other radio devices, but does not succeed in actually connecting to the network (i.e. the power and radio LED shows normal activity), you may need to verify whether your operating system installed the correct Network Protocol Settings. Both LEDs blink once every 10 seconds This LED indicates that the PCBAG PC Card is powered on and working properly, but it is not able to establish a wireless connection to the wireless network. Possible causes might be: • Your wireless station is outside the Wireless Range of the Base Station(s) that could provide The content of this document is to be treated as strictly confidential and is not to be disclosed, reproduced or used, except as authorized i n writing by Universal Scientific Industrial Co. ,Ltd.

Contact your LAN Administrator for information about the correct values of the parameter settings that apply in your network. No LED Activity If there is absolutely no LED activity on the Power LED and Link LED of the PCBAG PC Card, this may be due to one of the following reasons: • The PCBAG PC Card device is not properly connected to your computer. • No driver was installed to allow communication between your computer and the wireless network interface. • You are using a wireless network interface in combination with an PCBAG WLAN PC Card Tools, but you did not yet "introduce" the Device to your computer using the "Add New Hardware" option on the Control Panel. Power LED is Flickering A flickering Power LED identifies that you enabled the Card Power Management option for the Wireless Client Adapter of a Wireless Client Station (Advanced Settings). Network Protocol Settings Subject to the type and version of your Windows operating system, the correct protocol may or may not be installed automatically when installing the wireless network interface. Network protocols are for example: • TCP/IP The content of this document is to be treated as strictly confidential and is not to be disclosed, reproduced or used, except as authorized i n writing by Universal Scientific Industrial Co. ,Ltd.

Click Start, select Settings, then select Control Panel. 2. Double-click the Network icon to open the Network properties window. 3. Display the list of network components installed protocols for your wireless network interface. When using Windows 95/98, scroll down the list of items in the tab Configuration. When using Windows NT, select the tab Protocols. 4. Contact your network administrator for information about: Which protocols should be included in the list. What property settings should apply for each of these protocols. 5. (Optional) Click the: Add button to add a missing protocol. Properties button to view/modify the protocol settings. Another Device does no longer work In case another device does no longer work after you installed the PCBAG PC Card , you may have run into a Hardware Conflict. You can verify whether this is caused by the wireless network interface, simply by removing the interface and rebooting the computer: • When the problem persists, the problem is not caused by the wireless network interface. • When the other device functions properly again after removing the wireless network interface, one of the following two causes may apply: The resources were already claimed upon booting the device, by a resource setting in The content of this document is to be treated as strictly confidential and is not to be disclosed, reproduced or used, except as authorized i n writing by Universal Scientific Industrial Co. ,Ltd.

This means that if you selected resources that appeared to be available according to the Windows NT Diagnostics program, these settings were already claimed by the conflicting device. In both cases you are encouraged to try alternative values for your wireless network interface to see whether these new values might help solving your problem. Upon doing so, you are advised to change only one parameter at a time. FCC COMPLIANCE STATEMENT: This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules.
