(Wi-Fi-Equipped Instruments Only)
Wi-Fi on Wi-Fi-equipped instruments is designed to operate on a wireless network anchored by
Safety Suite Device Configurator (SSDC) software and using Wi-Fi access points. Operational
distance between the instrument and the access point (wireless router) varies, depending on
distance, interference, and obstacles. It uses the 802.11b/g protocol using the 2.4GHz ISM
(license-free) frequency band.
Note: To ensure the best communication, it is recommended that the Wi-Fi-equipped
instruments and access point not be located close to microwave ovens, cordless telephones, or
Bluetooth devices.
A green LED in the lower left portion of the Wi-Fi-equipped instrument indicates whether the Wi-
Fi radio module is on, and if so, whether it is associated with an access point. There are three
possible states:
LED blinks once per second: Radio module is on, but it is not associated with an access
l
point.
LED glows steadily: Radio module is on and is associated with an access point.
l
LED is off: Radio module is off.
