4.5 Start-up of IMB-wla connection modules
1. Advantages of WLAN-interface :
- Standard interface for wireless connection of devices in a network.
- Simple connection of IMBus on the usage of Terminal Servers, because the mapping of i.e. COM-
Ports is not required.
2. Electrical connection :
- Connect the IMB-wla module to IMBus as described under 2.3.
- Mount antenna to IMB-wla nodule.
- Switch IMB power supply module on.
3. General information for connection of IMB-wla modules to a network
a) On default the IMB-wla module waits for the IP address setting by a DHCP Server. If no DHCP
Server is available, then the IMB-wla module automatically takes after 20 sec an IP-Address out of
the address range 169.254.x.x. (
Subnet mask : 255.255.0.0 )
b) The IMB-wla modules require sometimes up to 30 sec after power-on, till they are available in the
company network.
c) Default Wireless LAN settings of IMB-wla modules :
Network type = Ad-hoc
Network name = LTRX_IBSS
