RADIO CONFIGURATION OPTIONS

The Radio Configuration options screen, shown in Figure
8, allows the user to define the system ID and the RF link
channel. The system ID is the 802.11 SS ID shared
between the base station and tablet. A base station asso-
ciates only with a tablet that shares the same SS ID. If the
SS ID of the base station and tablet do not match, the
base station will ignore data coming from the tablet. The
“DS channel” is the radio channel used by the base sta-
tion.

of the software. in addition, the page contains release
notes on changes made to the previous version. Links at
the bottom of the page will go to either the initial WebPAD
system configuration page or to the browser configuration
page.
