Managing Connections to Specific Base Stations
A list of specific base stations can be created for the RUGGEDCOM WIN to connect to. When enabled, only base
stations whose identifiers (IDs) are in the list can be connected to. A maximum of five base station IDs are
allowed. Connecting only to specific base stations can prevent devices from flapping between base stations with
overlapping coverage.

Section5.3.1
Enabling/Disabling Allowed Base Stations
Choose whether to allow the RUGGEDCOM WIN to connect to specific base stations in the Allowed BS List table
or to all base stations. When the Connect only to allowed BS parameter is enabled, the RUGGEDCOM WIN only
connects to the base stations in the list. When disabled, the RUGGEDCOM WIN can connect to any base station.
NOTE
Base station identifiers cannot be enabled or disabled if the RUGGEDCOM WIN is in scanning mode.
Click Disconnect before enabling or disabling the base stations. Do not click Disconnect if using the
RF Interface. This will stop the RUGGEDCOM WIN from transmitting and it will lose its connection to the
base station(s). A hard reset (shutting down and then powering up) or a site visit will be required to
reboot the RUGGEDCOM WIN using the GUI.
For more information, refer to Section5.3.5, “Disconnecting from Specific Base Stations” .
