Field Description
Available Networks Section
This section displays the networks the terminal recognizes as available to connect to. When the Client is first installed, there
are no entries in the Available Networks list.
Scan Tap this button to see a list of networks broadcasting their availability.
Note: You can also attach to networks who are not broadcasting.
Move to Configured This button activates only after Scan has been tapped and available networks have been
retrieved. In the list of networks retrieved, select the network you wish to connect to, and tap
Move to Configured. This selects the network, which now appears in the Configured Networks
section.
Configured Networks section
This section displays the networks your terminal is connected to. This section enables you to add or remove networks as
well as review and edit the properties of existing configured networks.
Default When the Client is first installed, there is a Configured Network named "default" in the list. This
profile has Associate with any network selected in its Properties selection screen.
If you are going to be in a location with only one access point (or more than one access point
that attaches to the same network), the default profile may be sufficient for you needs, without
necessitating the selection of a specific network or networks.
If default is last in the list, it can act as a wildcard should you be out of the range of your primary
networks (which are listed first). Do not place default at the top or middle of the list because, if
it is, connection to the other list entries will never be attempted.
Up & Down Tapping these buttons moves a selected network up or down one place in the list.
Note: The order of the networks in this list is the exact order that connections will be attempted.
The network listed first will be attempted first and so on. Place your primary networks first.
Add Tap this button to manually add a network to the Configured Networks list if the access point
does not broadcast its SSID or you are pre-configuring the client for an access point that is not
currently in range. See Adding a Wireless Network Configuration on page 7-30.
Remove Tap this button to remove a selected network in the list.
Properties Tap this button to review the properties of a network selected in the list. This button opens the
same network configuration screen as the Add button does; use it to edit network configuration
properties.
