cobas h 232 User Manual

199
A typical range for direct connection between the cobas h 232 meter and the access point (air,
direct view, low disturbances) is up to 15 to 20 meters (49 to 66 feet). The actual range depends
on the positioning of the access point’s antennas and other topological properties of the space
between WLAN device and AP. Additionally, dynamic control of the transmitting power of the
access point may reduce the maximum distance between WLAN device and AP within which
communication can be guaranteed.
The cobas h 232 system is designed such that it coexists with other wirelessly communicating
devices. The cobas h 232 system does NOT include any real-time or even time critical wireless
functionality. It communicates exclusively single, digital data fields. It does NOT communicate
continuous waveform data.
Note: A degraded Quality of Service (QoS) of the WLAN communication will not impact the
functionality of the meter but may delay the communication of results to the DMS. Users
should be aware that real-time communication of test result readings cannot be guaran-
teed by the cobas h 232 meter.
