5.4.5.4 Connecting to the PC via WLAN (option)
Connect access point
➢ Connect the LAN port A of the milling unit and the access point, using the
network cable (10m, Order No.: 61 51 521).
The access point is pre-configured at the factory for this application.
1. As a test, place the access point near the milling unit at head level or
higher.
2. Perform a communication test as described in the separate instructions
(see "Operating MC XL via WLAN in infrastructure mode", chapter "Final
work, analyzing connection quality"). If applicable, follow the instructions
on changing channels.
3. After you have found the optimum setting, take the acquisition unit and
place it in the position in which it will be operated that is farthest away
from the access point.
4. From this position, repeat the communication test you conducted earlier.
If the results are satisfactory, leave the access point permanently in this
position.
5. If the results are not satisfactory, position the access point outside of the
room in which the milling unit is located and repeat the communication
test.
If the connection quality is still not adequate, WLAN communication
cannot be easily achieved under the local conditions. In this case, ask
your network administrator for assistance.
NOTICE
LAN connection
Operation via a cable LAN connection is possible at any time.
