Chapter 4 Wireless Applications
Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) allow mobile computers to communicate wirelessly and send data to a
host device in real time. Before using the vehicle computer on a WLAN, the facility must be set up with the required
hardware to run the wireless LAN and the vehicle computer must be configured. Refer to the documentation
provided with the access points (APs) for instructions on setting up the hardware.
To configure the vehicle computer, a set of wireless applications provide the tools to configure and test the wireless
radio in the vehicle computer. The
