Configuring USB Communications
You can place the CN2B in the CN2B Modem Dock or the CN2B Com-
munications Dock to transfer data to and receive data from another device
using USB communications. The USB cable, communications dock, and
modem dock are sold separately. For more information on accessories and
how to order them, see “Accessories” on page 16.
To use USB communications with your CN2B Computer
1 Connect the CN2B Communications Dock to the USB port of the
other device using an appropriate USB cable.
2 Make sure that your USB device is configured for USB communications.
3 Insert the CN2B Computer into the CN2B Communications Dock.
4 Turn on the CN2B Computer.
Configuring 802.11b/g Radio Communications
Make sure all components with antennas are at least 30 cm (1 ft) apart
when power is applied. Failure to comply could result in equipment
damage.
The wireless CN2B has an internal 802.11b/g radio to transfer data using
wireless communications. This manual assumes you have already set up
your wireless communications network, including your access points. If
you are using a UDP Plus network, you also need to have your Intermec
Application Server communicating with a host computer.
Your CN2B Computer supports TCP/IP and UDP Plus.
Configuring the Network Parameters for a TCP/IP Network
In a TCP/IP network, the CN2B Computer communicates with a host
computer directly using TCP/IP. The access point acts as a bridge to allow
communications between the wired and wireless networks.
1 Configure the infrastructure mode, network name (SSID), host IP
address, and IP settings (if not using DHCP) on each CN2B Computer
in the network.
2 Configure security. For help, see “Configuring Your Wireless Network”
on page 197.
Configuring the Network Parameters for a UDP Plus Network
In a UDP Plus network, the CN2B Computer communicates with a host
computer through the Intermec Application Server. The Intermec Applica
-
tion Server translates UDP Plus packets on the wireless network into
TCP/IP packets on the wired network and vice versa. The access point acts
as a bridge to allow communications between wired and wireless networks.
1 Configure the network name (SSID), controller IP address, IP settings
(if not using DHCP), and controller port (set to 5555) on each CN2B
Computer in the network.
