Note: Please note that all procedures access the same configuration data. 
For example, if you change the settings in LANconfig, this will also have 
a direct effect on the values under WEBconfig and Telnet.
4.3 Searching and configuring 
devices
Note: Always switch on your device first before starting the PC for configura-
tion.
A Router or an Access Point can be configured in the following ways (provid-
ed that the model is equipped with the according interface):
D Via the local network (LAN) 쐃.
D Via the wireless network (WLAN) 쐇, if the WLAN encryption (e.g. WEP) 
of a device with a wireless interface and in the configuration PC has been 
adjusted correctly and/or has been deactivated.

Please observe the following hints when using a terminal program over the 
serial interface:
V The models BAT54-F and BAT54-F X2 feature a reduced serial inter-
face (Rx, TX, ground only), hence the hardware handshake has to be 
deactivated.
V The BAT54-Rail featurees a fully-fledged serial interface which sup-
ports the hardware handshake of the terminal program.
Caution: If the hardware handshake is not well configured, some char-
acters may get lost while transmitting script or configuration files result-
ing in a damaged device configuration.
In contrast, the firmware upload will work even with wrong configured 
hardware handshake, because the X-Modem protocol ensures a se-
cure data transmission.
