Chapter 9 Wireless Applications
Introduction
Wireless Local Area Networks (LANs) allow mobile computers to communicate wirelessly and send captured data
to a host device in real time. Before using the MC9500 on a WLAN, the facility must be set up with the required
hardware to run the wireless LAN and the MC9500 must be configured. Refer to the documentation provided with
the access points (APs) for instructions on setting up the hardware.
To configure the MC9500-K, a set of wireless applications provide the tools to configure and test the wireless radio
in the MC9500-K. Refer to the Wireless Fusion Enterprise Mobility Suite User Guide for Version 3.00 for
information on configuring wireless profiles. Go to http://www.motorola.com/enterprisemobility/manuals
for the
latest version of this guide. See Software Versions on page xii to determine the Fusion version on the MC9500-K.
The
Wireless Application menu on the task tray provides the following wireless applications:
•
Find WLANs
•
Manage Profiles
•
Manage Certs
•
Manage PACs
•

Wireless Status
NOTE 802.11d is enabled by default. When enabled, the AP must be configured the same in order to
connect.
NOTE Select the Country for the MC9500-K’s country of operation. The access point prompts for the
correct country code on the first login. A warning message also displays stating an incorrect country
setting may result in illegal radio operation. Selecting the correct country is central to legally
operating the access point. Each country has its own regulatory restrictions concerning
electromagnetic emissions and the maximum RF signal that can be transmitted. To ensure
compliance with national and local laws, set the country accurately. MC9500-K users cannot
configure their access point until a two character country code (for example, United States - us) is
set. The Country setting drop-down list in the US version of the MC9500-K only contains “US” in the
list. The Country setting drop-down list in the WW version does not contain “US” in the list.
