If you select Advanced, then you must click the Click Here link at the bottom of
the page to specify a minimum of three and a maximum of six channels for use
by the 2.4 GHz ITS.
6. Select the ZigBee channel used for medical purposes at the installation site
from the drop-down list. Possible selections are channels 11 to 26.
Default: None.
7. Set the RF Access Code field as documented in the 2.4 GHz Access Point
Default Configuration Worksheet, and set the Enable checkbox to CHECKED.
8. Set the Subnet Mask and Default Gateway fields as documented in the 2.4 GHz
Access Point Default Configuration Worksheet.
9. Click SAVE and then verify the results to your expected settings.

Configuring AP Groups

The next step in the process involves establishing the AP Groups for your
installation. As described in "Planning Your AP Groupings" on page 2-17, an AP
Group allows for logically associated Access Points within a clinical unit to be given
a common set of configurations. These configurations govern everything from AP-to-
APC partnership rules, RF Channel and Access Code usage, and Alert Settings.
The AP Groups within the system should logically map to the Clinical Units that have
been established for the monitoring network and databases.
Note Any changes you may later make to the Access Point Group settings on an installed
ITS will cause a momentary pause in monitoring for all patient-worn transceivers
and wireless bedside monitors (and some AP Group setting changes may cause a
longer break in monitoring).
