MicroAP Tab

Use the MicroAP tab to configure the mobile computer to operate as an AP. The MicroAP establishes
a single-cell wireless network for devices in mobile unit mode.
Each MicroAP requires a unique ESSID. MicroAP cells can coexist as separate individual networks
within the same site without interference. The MicroAP does not roam, but it does support roaming.

A Spectrum24 radio has two main power consumption modes, Continuous Aware Mode
(CAM) and Power Save Poll (PSP) mode. Use the Power Mode drop-down list to specify the
power mode to be used by the radio. CAM provides the best performance but uses the most
power. CAM is the preferred mode for devices running on AC power. PSP saves significant
amounts of power over CAM and is the preferred mode for devices running on battery
power.
