Fluke 2680A-RF24G 120 Instruction Sheet

Introduction

The 2680A-RF24G 120 or 230 Wireless Network
Bridge (hereafter referred to as "the Wireless Bridge")
is a wireless network device that creates a wireless
link between Fluke 2680 Series or NetDAQ models
and a computer (PC) running Fluke DAQ or NetDAQ
Logger application software.
The Wireless Bridge operates in the 2.4 GHz
frequency range using the WiFi Wireless-G
or IEEE-802.11g standard supported
internationally. However, when operating
outside the United States, check with the
appropriate governing agency in the host
country prior to Wireless Bridge operation.
This instruction sheet assumes familiarity with the
Fluke DAQ or NetDAQ Logger software and 2680
Series or NetDAQ model operation. If unfamiliar with
Fluke DAQ or NetDAQ Logger software or the 2680
Series or NetDAQ models, refer to the software user
documentation or the 2680 Series or NetDAQ users
manuals. Figure 1 shows the Wireless Bridge.
