Reset Switch

The WS-AP3660 provides a Reset Switch (see
default configurations. If you hold down the button for less than 5 seconds, the WS-AP3660
performs a hardware reset. If you hold the button down for 5 seconds or more, any configuration
changes are removed, and the factory default configuration are restored to the WS-AP3660.

Audible Buzzer

The WS-AP3660 includes an audible buzzer used for aligning an antenna with a remote AP. The
volume of the buzzer changes based on signal strength and the position of the antenna. The sound
(beep) is followed by a pause where the pause is shorter for higher signal strength and longer for a
weak signal.
Note: For more information on how to position the WS-AP3660 antennas using the audible buzzer,
refer to the Enterasys Wireless AP External Antenna Site Preparation and Installation Guide. This
document is available in Adobe Acrobat Portable Document Format (PDF) at the following site:

Warning: The Enterasys Wireless Outdoor AP buzzer volume reaches volumes between 80 and 90
db. Sustained exposure above 90 db may result in hearing loss.

Temperature Sensor

The WS-AP3660 includes an internal temperature sensor for monitoring the temperature of the
PCB. If the WS-AP3660 temperature changes (either too low or too high), an alert is generated and
written to the log file for the AP. The sensor monitors the AP internal temperature, and creates the
alert when the temperature enters either zone. For more information on the operating
temperatures of the WS-AP3660, refer to
A low alarm zone is when the internal temperature is less than 5 degrees above the heater
circuit system on temperature (see
close to powering off the unit.
A high alarm is when the temperature rises above 60 Degrees C. In this zone, the CPU may
overheat and stop operating.
Warning: Do not operate the WS-AP3660 with the Temperature Sensor disconnected as this may
cause the unit to fail prematurely.

Heater Circuit

The WS-AP3660 provides a heater and thermostat circuit which automatically engages/disengages
when the internal PCB temperature reaches between -40 to 0C. The heater maintains a constant
operating temperature for optimal performance and reliability.
