CK61 Mobile Computer with Windows Mobile User’s Manual 129
Configuring 802.11a/b/g Radio Communications
The wireless CK61 has an internal 802.11a/b/g radio to transfer data using
wireless communications. This section of the manual assumes that you have
already set up your wireless communications network including access
points. If you are using a UDP Plus network, you also need to have an
Intermec Application Server communicating with a host computer.
Your CK61 supports TCP/IP and UDP Plus network protocols.
Configuring the Network Parameters for a TCP/IP Network
In a TCP/IP network, the CK61 communicates with a host computer
directly using TCP/IP. The access point acts as a bridge to allow
communications between the wired and wireless networks.
1 Configure the infrastructure mode, network name (SSID), host IP
address, and IP settings (if not using DHCP) on each CK61 in the
network.
2 Configure security. For help, see “Configuring Security” on page 142.
Configuring the Network Parameters for a UDP Plus Network
In a UDP Plus network, the CK61 communications with a host computer
through the Intermec Application Server. The Intermec Application Server
translates UDP Plus packets on the wireless network into
TCP/IP packets on the wired network and vice versa. The access point acts
as a bridge to allow communications between wired and wireless networks.
1 Configure the network name (SSID), controller IP address, IP settings
(if not using DHCP), and controller port (set to 5555) on each CK61
in the network.
2 Configure security. For help, see “Configuring Security” on page 142.
• The easiest way to configure the network parameters on the CK61 is to
use the Intermec Settings applet. For help, see “Using the Intermec
Settings Applet” on page 17.
Make sure all components with antennas are at least 30 cm (1 ft) aport
when power is applied. Failure to comply could result in equipment
damage.
