Titan Electronics Inc NETCOM423 Manuel D’Utilisation

When it comes to Wireless communications, it is 
useful to see a list of possible partner stations on 
the WLAN. This function is available in many 
drivers, and also in the NetCom WLAN Serial 
Device Servers. This function is often referred to 
as »Range Scan«. On the NetCom it will open a 
separate browser window with the results. An 
example of this is shown below.

Wireless Option 

This example lists three other NetCom configured for Ad-Hoc 
communication on channel 7. All of them use no encryption. There is 
also an Access Point (listed as Managed), of course in Infrastructure-
mode. To connect to this AP the NetCom must use encryption.

Image 100: Telnet Sample WLAN Scan Output 

Since the NetCom itself is in Ad-Hoc mode, the communication is 
limited to the 802.11b, which results in 11Mb/s as raw transmission 
speed. 
The display is updated automatically when some information changes. 
Most noticeably this will be the “Act”-ivity sign.
