Spectrum24 Network Configuration
Introduction
Wireless LANs allow PDT 8000 terminals to communicate wirelessly, and to send captured
data “real time” to a host device. Before a terminal can be used on a Spectrum24 LAN your
facility must be set up with the equipment required to run the wireless LAN and the terminal
must be properly configured. Refer to the documentation which came with your access
points for instructions on setting up the required hardware.
The PDT 8046 terminal Spectrum24 settings and NICTT settings configure and monitor the
Spectrum24 connection.

a DHCP server to acquire the network configuration and firmware filenames.
