Ta b C am Deploymen t C r i teria & Guideline s
This section provides useful tips on how to adjust the TabCam to meet your needs.

ENGLISH
Advanced Deployment Criteria & Guidelines
If you are connecting to an 802.11b/g/n wireless access point, set the 2.4 GHz
Radio Mode on the device to 802.11g/n.
If you are connecting to a dual band wireless access point, confirm the TabCam
can connect through the 2.4 GHz band.
If you must use WEP security, configure your wireless access point to use only a
single WEP key in key index 1. Also, for 128-bit WEP networks, always choose a
13-character password (and 5 characters for 40-bit).
If your wireless access point uses WPA / WPA2 Enterprise security, please note
TabCam supports only PEAP authentication.
Battery Safety Information
Store batteries in any cool & dry place.
Do not dispose of used batteries in waste bins. Please dispose of batteries at
special collection points.
Do not dispose of batteries by burning them in a fire.
Do not attempt to short circuit the battery terminals.
Battery Usage
1. Normal charging procedure
Please charge the battery at least 4 hours until the 4th LED is green.
2. Full battery discharges should be avoided
Because fully discharging the battery seriously stresses the battery and can even
damage, it's recommended to partially discharge the battery to capacity levels of
20~30% and frequently charge the battery, instead of fully discharging the battery
and then fully charging it.
3. Heat and cold conditions can permanently reduce battery life
