• Channel Selection
o The AP-5131 default setting is Automatic Selection. This enables the AP-
5131 to auto-select the channel of operation. For example, if three AP-5131
Access Points are operating, each AP-5131 would be set to a non-
overlapping channel (1, 6 and 11).
o If non-Motorola (Symbol) Access Points are also in use the channel can be
manually set to avoid interference. Channel selection is made under Network
Configuration, Radio Configuration, Radio 1. See figure 13.
