In troduction This product is an IEEE 802.11b Wireless Compact Flash Adapter that uses a standard Type I CF adapter interface which integrated with wireless LAN technology. It provides an easy and fast way to access the Internet via wireless network. This Wireless Compact Flash adapter allows the users to install on PDAs (Personal Digital Assistants), Pocket/Handheld PCs and other devices equipped with a Type I CF slot. This Compact Flash Card is 802.
Wireless Solutions and Application Access existed networks for mobile workers Allow doctors, nurses, sales access their database while keeping mobility in the hospitals, retail stores, office campus or other buildings. Difficult-to-wire environment There are many situations where wires cannot or cannot easily be laid. Historic buildings, older buildings, open areas and across busy streets make the installation of LANs either impossible or very expensive.
In stalling Setup Utility of Wireless LAN Compact Flash Ca rd 1. Create a connection between Hand PC and Desktop/Laptop by Microsoft Active Sync. 2. Install the PDA’s driver and utility by executing CFDR.exe as shown in Figure1 and Figure 2.
3. After the Install Shield Wizard window appears, click Next to continue as shown in Figure3. Figure 3 4. In the Software License Agreement dialog window, click Yes to accept all the terms of the License Agreement as shown in Figure4.
5. Click Yes to install the driver in the default install directory as shown in Figure 5, then click OK to continue the setup procedure as shown in Figure 6. Figure 5 Figure 6 6. Click Finish to complete the setup procedure. Figure 7 NOTE: Insert the Wireless Compact Flash card to the PDAs AFTER the Setup Utility and Driver ’s installation procedure.
7. Start the Microsoft ActiveSync to check the installation status of the PDAs. In the Microsoft ActiveSync dialog window, click Tools and then choose Add/ Remove Programs to check out the drivers or programs that has been installed as shown in Figure 8.
Wireless LAN Setting 1. Connect the wireless compact flash card to PDAs. 2. Select StartàSettings on the handheld. In the Settings dialog, click Connections and then click Network icon as shown in Figure 9. Figure 9 3. In the Adapter tab, choose 802.11b WLAN 11Mbps Wireless LAN PC to set up the IP address as shown in Figure 10.
4. In the IP Address label, choose Use server-assigned IP address if there is a DHCP server in your own network as shown in Figure 11. Figure 11 5. In the IP Address label, choose Use specific IP address if you need to set up the fix IP address as shown in Figure 12.
6. After the setting of Step 5, move to Name Servers to set up the DNS server as shown in Figure 13. Figure 13 7. Choose Use proxy server in the Connections tab of the Internet Explorer’s options as shown in Figure 14 when you connect Internet via Proxy Server.
Using the Wireless LAN U tility This Wireless Compact Flash Adapter is a “ready-to-use” device. The default settings have finished for a typical Infrastructure Wireless LAN. After installing the Setup Utility and the Driver into the handheld devices, simply install the Wireless LAN Compact Flash Card onto your handheld devices and it is ready to use. In some situations, however, you may want to adjust the configuration settings to manage your wireless network.
Link Quality In infrastructure mode, this bar displays the transmission quality between a WLAN station (Access Point) and Wireless LAN PC Card. In Peer-to-Peer mode (Ad-Hoc), this bar displays the link quality between two Wireless LAN PC Cards. Signal Strength This bar displays the signal strength level. The higher bar is, the more powerful radio signal is received by the PC Card.
Ÿ Peer to Peer: If two or more stations exchange data directly without an access point, you need to select Peer-to-Peer mode. Each station in a Peer-to-Peer (Ad-Hoc) network must specify the same network name (SSID) and peer-to-peer channel. Ÿ Access Point: If at least one access point involves in the communications in a group of stations, you need to select Infrastructure mode. Each station needs to specify the same network name (SSID) as the access point.
Defaults Once this button is pressed, all the settings will be set back to the default settings. Encryption Encryption is designed to make the data transmission more secure. you can select 64 or 128-bit WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) key to encrypt data (Default setting is Disable). WEP encrypts each frame transmitted from the radio using one of the Keys from this panel.
Disabled Select Disabled item in the Encryption (WEP ) drop-down list allows you to disable the encryption function. Site Survey Browse the available access points in your network environment by clicking the Scan button and make a connection to one of them by pushing the Connect button in the Site Survey tab as shown in Figure 18. Figure 18 About About tab shows the product/driver/utility/PC Card firmware version as shown in Figure 19.

Appendix A Network Topology To better understand how the wireless LAN products work together to create a wireless network, it might be helpful to depict a few of the possible wireless LAN USB Adapter network configurations. The wireless LAN products can be configured as: 1. Ad-hoc (or peer-to-peer) for departmental or SOHO LANs. 2. Infrastructure for enterprise LANs. 3. IP Sharing for 56K/ISDN TA/Cable/DSL Modem – Connect Internet and your SOHO network.
Infrastructure Wireless Network Internet PC Server Wireless Broadband Router/ AP Desktop with Wireless USB Adapter PDA with CF Card Laptop with Wireless LAN Card All of the Senao’s wireless devices provide access to a wired LAN through the wireless extension of the local network. An integrated wireless and wired LAN by using the Access Points is called an Infrastructure configuration. Infrastructure configuration allowed users extend the accessibility of the wireless and wired LAN. Multiple 802.
Roaming Internet PC Server Access Point/Router Access Point/Router Access Point/Router Wireless device roams Mobile Device between APs while maintaining uniterrupted Mobile Device network connectivity The mobile client will connect to any 802.11b AP that is within range. Each 802.11b Access Point within a roaming network must have a unique Channel and the same SSID and Encryption Keys (if WEP is enabled). 802.
