Wireless Network Bridge
Operation
3
Set up for General Network (Infrastructure
mode)
“Infrastructure” mode allows the 2680 Series or
NetDAQ unit to connect to an existing wireless
network. The setup for Infrastructure mode is similar
the Ad-Hoc instructions above, except that the
settings information must be obtained from a network
administrator.
To set up Infrastructure mode:
1. Click the “Infrastructure” radio button on the
Mode Settings screen in the Wireless Bridge
Setup Wizard.
2. In the WB Name field, enter a name for the
Wireless Bridge that is different from any other
Wireless Bridge on the same network. Click the
Next button to continue.
3. In the Wireless Settings screen, enter the SSID for
the existing wireless network. This name
identifies the wireless network, and must be
obtained from the network administrator.
4. Channel and Network Mode settings are not used
for Infrastructure mode. Click the “Next” button
to continue.
5. If your network has a DHCP server, click the
“Automatically obtain an IP address (DHCP)”
radio button on the IP Settings screen (confirm
this with the network administrator). Otherwise,
skip the IP Settings. Click the “Next” button.
6. If the existing wireless network uses encryption
or other security, set the Security Settings with
the information from your network administrator.
Press the “Next” button to continue.
7. Click the “Yes” button to confirm and save these
settings.
8. Click “Exit” to exit the Setup Wizard.
Operation
Connect the Wireless Bridge to the 2680 Series or
NetDAQ model or PC with which it will be used.
Make sure that there is a Wireless Bridge set up and
connected to each 2680 Series or NetDAQ unit used
on the wireless network. If this is an Isolated (“Ad-
Hoc”) network, be sure there is a Wireless Bridge
connected to the PC as well.
Start Fluke DAQ or NetDAQ Logger software and
turn on the 2680 Series or NetDAQ model
instrument(s).
Then connect to the 2680 Series or NetDAQ unit(s)
through Fluke DAQ or NetDAQ Logger software in
the same way as if you were using a regular wired
Ethernet network connection.
