Hardware Installation:

Before insert the card, please execute the below instruction at first !!

1. Win2000 OS :

Enter in the directory : C:\ v0_5_b25ALL\art_driver\bin\2000
Execute the uninst_new_drv_2k.bat:

Execute the inst_new_drv_2k.bat :

WinXP OS :

Enter in the directory : C:\ v0_5_b25ALL\art_driver\bin\xp
Execute the uninst_new_drv_xp.bat:
Execute the inst_new_drv_xp.bat

2. Insert the card, then install the driver , the driver is located at

Win2000 OS :

C:\ v0_5_b25ALL\art_driver\bin\2000

WinXP OS :

C:\ v0_5_b25ALL\art_driver\bin\xp

Configuration:

1. Enter the DOS command mode , then change the directory to :

C:\ v0_5_b25ALL\art_driver\bin\xp

2. Input the instruction: art \id=2082

Then press enter .

ART TEST MODE:

1. Once utility is executed, a menu with test options will appear. To run a test, press the character key

that is assigned to the test option.
For example, press “c” to run the continuous transmit test, or press “r ” to run the continuous receive
test.

For example: press “o” to change 11g or 11b test mode, Press “c” to continuous transmit mode .

2. Continuous Transmit Options.

a. Before the Continuous Transmit test, need to press “e” first
The command will load the calibrate data to the EEROM, then the card can transmit the target
power
b. The channel frequency, data rate and output power could be changed in continuous transmit
options. Press “c” to increase the output power , 11g Power (data rate 6Mbps) is 17dBm, 11b
Power is 17dBm , Press ESC to return to the main Test Options menu when finished.

3. Continuous Receive Options

Continuous receive options will put the radio into receive mode to allow for radio measurements. Press
ESC to return to the main Test Options menu when finished.
